Yaklma's Melon Crop.

Ranch and Range: Sergeant ]. H.
Wright, a veteran of the Philippine cam
paign, now returned to his ranch near
Yakima, was circulating among the deal
ers this week and fixing things up with
them for the handling of his melon crop.
1--WE have had splendid luck with our
melons this year. he said. The seed
terminated we'll, and the fruit is ma
turing finely. No, the acreage in the
valley is not so large as in previous years.
One man planted 80 acres on the Yak
INA reservation. but had bad luck with
them, so that his shipments will be light.
Many patches previously in melons were
planted to potatoes, Of which there will
be very heavy crop in our valley. A
great many more canteloupes will be pro-
duced than watermelons. The Rocky
Ford watermelon, which is such a fine
long-distance shipper, has been planted
quite extensively"
