The United States Department ot
Agriculture has in recent years car
ried cut = number Of growing and ma
turity tests; the knowledge gained by
these tests has proven very helpful
ard assisted toward establishing the
popularity CT these early melons,
which have widely advel tised the In
perial Valley. The primary feature
that makes it possible to place these
caHtaloupes on your breakfast table
as early as May 20, is because Of the
warm weather during the months Of
April and May, and the intense heat
Of June and July, all of which is de-
cidedly necessary toward the early
maturing of cantaloupes.
Deyclopement Ct Market Plan
Considerable trouble was eXtar.-
enced in the earlier years in obtaining
proper market distribution of canta-
l2upes. Markets We're allowed to be-
come overstocked, resulting in poor
prices, and during the earlier seasons,
considerable loss was suffered by
growers and shippers on this account.
During the season of 1914, the U. S.
Nepal tment Of Agriculture received
many complaints from growers of
'antaloupes in the United States per-
tanning to the glutted markets, and
ruinous returHs. They responded to
the call for assistance by sending
