PICK MELONS FOR SHIPMENT
To Reach Market in Firm Condition
and Retain Flavor Is Excellent
Trait for Farmer.
(Ry JOHN w TI,OYD)

By JOHN w LLOYD)
There is considerable difference OF
opinion as to the exact stage of ma
turity at which melons should be
picked for shipment. If allowed to be-
come too ripe before picking, they
become soft by the time they have
reached the market, and often must
be sacrificed in order to effect an i'm
mediate sale.
If picked too green, the melons
reach the market in firm condition but
are lacking in flavor. and not desired
by the best trade. 1t is a nice point
ripeness that they will reach the mar
ket in firm condition, and yet possess
the requisite flavor.
The rapidity of softening after pick
ing varies with the temperature to
which the melons are subjected. The
cooler they can be kept after picking,
the longer they can be allowed to re-
main on the vines and the better flavor
they will have. 1t is, therefore, essen
tial that the melons be placed in the
shade as soon as possible after pick,
ing. and be kept shaded until they are
loaded into the car
For the same reason, ripper melons
can be shipped under refrigeration
than in ventilated cars.
The condition of the vines and the
raridity of ripening of the melons in
the field will also have bearing upon
the stage Of maturity at which they
should be picked
While it is true that no rule can be
given for picking melons that will ap-
ply under all conditions, and that the
grower must exercise judgment in
reference to each days picking, the
ideal will be attained when the condi-
tions are such that the melons will
If picked as soon as the fruit will part
readily from the stem when the latter
is pressed with the thumb and finger:
There is a tendency among growera
to pick considerably before this poini
has been reached in order to run nd
risk of the melons becoming soft Id
transit.
That proper grading results in the
securing of better prices than indis'
criminate packing Is evidenced by tho
experience of certain growers whd
have departed from the usual custom,
and practise regular system Of grad.
ing whereby three distinct grades OF
marketable melons are made, and
shipped under three different brands

Officers Elected

At the seventh general convention

GA. F. Of Id. held at Louisville. Ky,
May 9 to IS, the following questions
labor were discussed. First, the
union label. This was brought up
by the president of the cigar makers
asking the convention to indorse the
blue label. Rudolph Modist, general
organizer of the A. M. and B. W.. re-
piled to the address and in his talk
called attention to the fact that the
Butchers have a shop card, and 1t
would be a good thing If the cigar
makers would indorse that. In his
address; he said: MANY union men
would ask for the union label in their
hat and clothes, but they only bought
hats once or twice year and the
same men would pay no attention to
the meat and other things which they
bought every day. 1t is the duty Of
every union man to see that his wife
is educated to the point where she
will refuse to buy meat from
butcher who does not display the
union shop card; that she will not
bake bread from non-union -four.
and will not serve breakfast food or
cereals that have been manufactured
by .non-union labor, or wear non
union clothes. It is all right to get
up and call the attention Of union
men to your own label. but you must
think of the other fellow and help
him along. too. The man who works
at one craft or business should not
ignore the others, or per1VIt his
family to do So" -
The other question Of Importance
that came up was the government in
spection of meat, and it was heart

Butcher Women Favor
Meat Inspection Law

because it insures the workingman
good, healthy meat. slaughtered un-
der good sanitary conditions; it pre-
vents the use of spoiled meat in saus-
age or other food products; it pre-
vents the use of anything in the
sausage kitchen that would be in
furious to- the health Of the consum-
er; 1t requires the smoked meat to
be kept clean and cured without the
use of harmful chemicals, thereby
giving the workingman good, healthy
meat.
Second: Because 1t has greatly
improved the sanitary condition of
the slaughter houses and sausage
kitchen, and also the manner of do
ing the work there, and the condi-
ton of the men working there is
very much improved. Third: Be-
cause it allows help to do away with
overtime and shortens the hours Of
labor and will stand by the men for
a shorter work day, as they only get
paid for eight hours. In a strike or
lockout there the place of the men
could not be taken by tramps, as the
inspectors would not pass the work
unless it was done according to the
rules and in a proper manner. and
no such work as has been done on
former occasions of that kind would
be tolerated or allowed. In view OF
these facts the convention heartily
approved the inspection.
