FLoRIDA'S MELON CROP GREAT
EST ON RECORD
Stem-End Treatment Helped Hold uE
Price

Price
The watermelon shipments from
Florida this season have been the
heaviest in the history of the state.
Up to the last of June about 1000
car loads have rolled northward. The
entire movement for last year was
only $500 car loads. From the pres
ent outlook this years total crop will
exceed 5000 car loads. The season
has been unfavorable and the yield
Ear below normal, but our acreage was
at least rs per cent greater than ever
before.
The market has held up remarkably
well in spite of the slow freight move
ment and embargoes on eastern mar
kets during the latter part of June.
One reason for the high prices being
paid is the superior carrying qualities
of the melons due to the use OF stem
end paste to prevent stem-end rot in
transit The proper use of the paste
has reduced the loss from decayed
melons from 20 per cent to % per ceat
of those shipped. Buyers have been
paying from $25 to $50 per car more
for treated than for untreated melons,
amounting to saving for the growers
Of at least $125,OOO for the season.
The cost of the treatment. including
The paste and application, is about rs
cents per car.
Mr.. c. NJ Tucker, OF Florida Agri-
cultural College. spent the past two
months among the melon growers ad
vising them concerning spraying to
prevent antracnose and aid in the use
of the stem-end treatment.
This season has been one of heavy
rains in the central part of the state.
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1920-07-16

The rains came just before the melons
were ripening and caused anthracnose
to spread rapidly. Much of the loss
in Marion, Lake and Sumter counties
due to dead vines would have been
prevented by careful spraying with
also bordeaux mixture.
AS crop cultivation slackens the
minor jobs about the farm, such as
mending the fences, cleaning out the
cribs and barns, moving the weeds
etc, are demanding attention.
Make the brood SOW raise two good
filters this year. The world is
hungrier than ever and pork will be
more and more in demand within the
next twelve months.
An acre of good velvet beans, if
plowed under properly, will add to the
soil almost as much ammonia as a.
ton of cottonseed meal.
The reports of the corn crop indi-
cate that there will not be enough to
feed the usual number of weeyils and
rodents this year.

Farm Notes by the County Agent
AS whole the corn crop of county
is disappointing. Too much cold and
too much rain in the early part Of the
season and rather dry weather later
on at the most critical stage of the
corn's growth are the main causes for
the poor crop. The dry and wet sea-
sons have been in the reverse order
this year, and as result the corn
planted in March has turned out bet
