The Cantaloupe Industry.

The cantaloupe Is a great institution. and,
while 1t Is not peculiar to Colorado by any
means, you will find 1t there In its greatest
glory, particularly In the valley of the Ar
kansas river. in the southeastern corner Of
the state. where the soil, climate and other
conditions are especially favorable George
W. Swink of Rockyford is the pioneer of
the industry. 1 told you Of him In letter
written about the annual melon feast at
that place some weeks ago.
During the late season 5000 acres were
devoted to cantaloupes In the Arkansas val
ley, and about 1000 acres to watermelons.
While the latter are quite as prolific IN
quantity and quite as delicious In favor as
the former. 1t does not pay so well to raise
them. because Of competition from Georgia.
Texas. Oklahoma and other states. II costs
more to send them to market, because they
are so bulky, and there is a great deal OF
waste.
"A man can make anywhere from moth
Ing to $500 an acre In cantaloupes.', said
Mr.. Swink In answer to my question when
was In Rockyford few weeks ago, "ac-
eording 10 the way he cultivates them and
the state OF the market. 1t requires con-
slant care and industry and intelligence
Fools and lazy people can raise melons hut

those who know how to do 1t can double

run the farms just like an engineer runs

Queer Easter Customs.

A native Mexican Easter is II
curious exhibition of ignorance
and superstition. The people de-
light i'll PROFESSIONS and in weird
ceremonies. At various places
they enact passion plays which are
very real to the Indians. The
characters in the play carry out
their parts with great realism.
Until recently it was common
occurrence for u man to volunteer
to be crucified, and actually to al
low his bigoted countrvmen topper
form the awful act The volunteer
was n criminal, who, if he came
out of the ordeal alive, received
full and free pardon. Itnot infre-
quently happened that the man
was killed, for he was made to
ride with his face toward the tail
of mule, while the bowling mob
was priviledged to beat him with
sticks and stones. From this ex-
hibition of brutal violence the peo-
pie went to the church where the
"tenebrae" was celebrated with
loud cries of grief. Frequently
dozens of people tainted during
the performance. Native Indian
women still do penance, by wear
ing crown of thorns, and kneel-
ing among the people in expiration
of some crime. Undoubtedly,
however, the most curious custom
which survives in Mexico is that of
the hanging of Judas. For days
before Easter merchants display
in the streets small and large
wooden images Of the Iscarlot, and
these are bought in great quanti-
ties by the natives, who hang Ju-
das with much ceremony at Easter

Baseball Possibilities.

Austin Spencer, owner and
manager Of the baseball park at
San Angelo, was here Tuesday
and Wednesday working up the
Temple Saa Angelo baseball cir
cult. His object was to make mr.
rangements with all towns between
San Angelo and Temple for the
ball team from each town to play
from one town to the other, for
instance, the Temple team start
on the circuit, play at Lampasas,
Brentwood, Ballinger and then
San Angelo, making the expense
for each town very small.
Mr.. Spencer went from Balm
ger to Brentwood; and will go on
down the road, stopping at Lam
pasas and Temple. He is anxious
to get the ball started to rolling,
and made date with the Balm
ger team to play at San Angelo OH
April 9th, 18th and 9Th. He said
the Ballinger boys should get to-
gether and erect park, stating
that the cost would be very small
compared witt: the returns. Sew
eral of those interested are con-
sidering the question, and it is
very probable that park will be
provided for this season.

"A canning factory is an enterprise
Should be especially interested in. from
a multiplicity of reasons, chief among
which are the following:
1t brings large daily trade into the
town during the season, which is cash.
as tomatoes sell for cash as rapidly as
delivered at the factory.
1t pays out annually, during the can

labor.

that we know of.
