AN OBJECT LESSON

The people in this part of the
country have just commenced to
learn that they can diversity
their crops and make money,
and they are not going to be slow
to take advantage of it.
In the early spring they can
make and ship radishes and lots
of them can have beans for ship
ment to the northern market,
and all they want to handle; then
comes the cantaloup and Elberta
peach crop, and before this
money is all spent the cotton
crop will be on the market, In
deed, it startles us to think what
our people are going to do with
all their money.
Sure it is, diversiticatiOn pays,
and while the lesson learned has
been expensive, it i 5 worth a
lot and we should be thankful
our people have learned it so
soon. That they will profit by it
there is no doubt, the change has
commenced and will go on until
the farmer will have something
bringing in money at all seasons
of the year.
A visit to the cantaloup coun
try reveals the fact that the
growers are busy people, they
can teach the busy bee and give
it odds.
Blevins seems to be the center
of the industry, but Red Land
township, Wallaceburg township
and Ozan Township all have their
cantaloup acreage. Along tn e
Prescott and NV. railway there
is perhaps a thousand acres in
cantaloupes. McCaskill and Bel
ton have all they can do to han
die the crop that is pouring in to
be shipped to the northern mar
kets, and this crop has proved to
be a paying proposition from the
start.
Washington, in Ozan township,
is another point from which can
taloupes are being shipped bV
enc, ca fIuatI. ana While the acre
age is small in this vicinity this
year, the crop has proved to be
such success that it will be
doubled several times over next
wear. 1t has also been discov-
cred that the lands around
Washington will produce much
earlier than the lands that have
been planted in the crop, this
giving the growers the advan-
tage of an earlier market and
botter prices.
This industry was started at
Blevins several years ago, and
has proved TO be a big thing for
the country where there are
lands suitable for the growing of
this crop.
