CantaIoupe Crop.

Secretary Thoman, Of the Cantapoule
association, furnishes US with the follow.
ing figures for the season 1868 crates
we're shipped for which s279a79 net was
received, an average of 972s cents.
Standard crates brought 81 10 each and
pony crates 80 cents. These are the best
prices ever obtained and all the growers
all well pleased with the results obtain
ed by E. r. Nichols & Co., the agents.
Two growers, T. c. Smith and c. B.
Thoman, netted over 5000 each for the
season in spite Of the early frost, MAX
ing with the late season the shortest
shipping season in the history OF the
valley. Such money cannot be obtained
by the cultivation Of any other crop IN
this sec ion and as the labor is much
less than in sugar beets and most other
crops, the wonder is that more Of our
farmers do not join the association. In
spite of the short season and the lack OF
interest and care shown by number
of the growers, it is safe guess that
the same acreage in any other crops
would not have produced half the money.
Lamar would have 100 acres Of can't
aloupes next season il the farmers would
take the trouble to investigate results.
