t4avlow of the Plant System has returned
from a trip through the watermelon belt
traversed by the Plant lines. He desired
10 get an understanding of the conditions
ana figure out the best plan to give ship
pers a good service for the transportation
of melons to the Northern and Eastern
markets.
A considerable movement of melons has
already begun. Mr.. Haylow says it will
be at its hight with the Plant System
within a week. The daily movement now
amounts to about 800 cars. From day to
day there may be an increase, but it will
not grow much heavier. When 300 cars
a day are handled for some days, the sea-
son may be said to be at it's hight
Mr.. Haylow found that the greatest ac-
tivity at present is in Northern Florida
and South Georgia. The movement from
Florida will fall off, as the Georgia melons
ripen and the planters begin to ship. Aft
er a few weeks the competition of Middle
Georgia will be encountered, and those
w n ar he
southern part of the state will discontinue
The farmers were found in a generally
prosperous condition, as far as their mel
ons go. A different plant from the former
one of shipping to commission houses is
being followed in the disposition of the sue
cuent fruit, and buyers are now securing
the cars as they are loaded by the plant
ers. The prices range usually from $S5
10 $40, according to the quality of the
melons. Mr.. Haylow says there is money
in them at these prices. In a car there
ore from 1000 20 1900 melons loaded, max
ing about 8 cents each for them.
The plan is found far more satisfactory
by the farmers who are assured of the
fair profit on their produce. Under the
custom of shipping to commission houses
they had no assurance as to what they
would get in return. Often car of fine
fruit would bring no more than the freight
charged for its transportation while in
stances have not been lacking in which
the farmers have been billed for the diff
ference between the prices brought by the
melons and the freight charges.
Mr.. Haylow finds that the melons are
being distributed over much wider area
than heretofore. They are now reaching
many other points than New York, and in
that he sees advantage for the planters
Often the New York market has been
glutted by the many shipments, when by
a distribution of the crop far better re-
turns might have been obtained.
