When to Pick Melons.
Green melons have depressing eff
feet on both demand and prices.
While it is necessary that they be
picked before they are entirely ripe,
III order to provide the essential keep
ing qualities in transit, they may be
picked at stage of maturity that will
afford good flavor as well as keeping
quality when they reach consumers,
cantalOupes should be picked just af-
ter they will slip clearly from the
stem; that is, at the full-slip stage Of
maturity.
If properly handled and promptly
loaded they will carry in satisfactory
condition, even to long-distance mar

THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOC1ATlON

The business houses of both Troy
and Deary went on cash basis the
first of the month. They also did
away with delivering goods in town.
The plan upon which they are now
operating is cash and carry. When
you buy goods from any of the mer-
chants of those two towns you pay
spot cash.
Last year credits were extended
too literally and it worked hard
ship on merchants from which they
have not yet recovered. If the
people of the Potlatch will cooper
ate with the merchants of Kendrick
and pay up as fast as possible, there
is no reason why they will not be
able to receive the same accommod-
ations which they have had hereto

handling and for some delay in transit.
AS a general rule, therefore, canta-
loupes should be picked just before
they reach the full-slip stage. Such
melons possess not only the desirable
eating quality, hut also the necessary
carrying quality.
The keeping and carrying qualities
of cantaloupes are directly dependent
on the care exercised to prevent me-
chanical injuries in harvesting and
preparation for shipment.
Use Care in Packing.
During the operation of packing,
melons should be placed carefully in
the crates, and not dropped or tossed
into place, as is frequently done. In
jury caused by squeezing can be pre-
vented if packers are careful not to
force in diversified melons when fin
ishing the crates.
The reduction Of serious market
losses from over-ripe and decayed mel
ons is dependent to a large extent
upon the promptness with which they
are placed under refrigeration. They
should be loaded Immediately in iced
refrigerator cars, and, while being
hauled from packing shed to the car
loading platform. should be covered
TO protect them from the sun.
Cantaloupes should preferably not
be wrapped. They do not refrigerate
so well in transit nor do they reach
the consumer in so good condition as
unwrapped melons. Loading different
types of packages may Obstruct air cir
culation and thus seriously retard re-
frigeration. In cars equipped with
these racks, as well as basket bunk
ers, salt may be effectively employed
to hasten refrigeration. The ability
of refrigerator cars to cool melon ship
ments quickly and to maintain desir-
able temperatures in transit depends
directly upon proper bunker and bulk
head construction, and upon the guam
tity and quality Of the insulating ma
terial used.

VALUE CT DOCKAGE IN WHEAT
ties of Nutritious Grain,
Good for Farm Use.

DOckage found in wheat in some in
ers 1t not only may have no value but
often may contain ingredients that are
positively harmful if ground with the
wheat, say specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The value of dOckage, therefore. de-
ponds on the value of the material
separated from the wheat. Dockage
frequently contains quantities of nutr-
tiOus grain and weed seeds, as flax
seed, wild oats, or other cereal grains.
Much of tins material can be used to
good advantage as poultry or stock
feed. Wild mustard and fiaXseed
can be removed from the dockage in
practically pure state by the use Of
special cleaning machinery, such as is
sometimes found in terminal elevators
and the larger flour mills. hut even
then the cost of cleaning will be con-
siderable, and when so separated will
ordinarily command fair price.
Under the dockage system of the
federal standards, the amount of for
eign material separated and consid-
cred as dockage is deducted from the
weight of the wheat purchased and,
in any event, does not affect the grade
higher grade and the price paid is on
the basis of this grade for the dockage-
free wheat.

the arrival Of the st. Louis Browns
that they did not get to practice.
They have had 20 straight days of
ideal weather, but the downpour of
rain Sunday night put the park in
such condition that it could not be
used Monday. However Manager
Foil ordered the men to report at
1 o'clock and gave a good half days
practice.
