. ! ZINE LETTUCE

With a firm market and 4 strong
demand for Imperial "Icebergs" on
the eastern coast the lettuce outlook
this year is much brighter now than it
has been for months and the farmers
will be able to clear themselves far
above their fondest hopes, was the
announcement of the traffic depart
Ement of the Southern Pacific railroad,
through the local representative this
morning.
Including yesterdays shipment of
80 cars, 5S3 cars have left the valley
to date, with Brawlev the largest in
dividual shipping point, with 246
cars, Ell Centre ranks second with
115; Calexico third with "a, Heber,
Calipatria and Imperial bringing up
in the rear with AZ 46 and 80 cars
respectively.
Friday was the biggest day of the
season. A total of 46 cars left the
different valley points on that day.
Brawley was again first with % cars,
Ell Centre second with 8 cars, Heber
third with 5.
The highest quotation was received
from the New York market, offering
$4. so to $500 for Imperial Valley
"Icebergs." The markets are quoted
as follows:
Pittsburgh $3.50 to s4.75; Chicago
1915 to $4.25; Kansas City 400; |
Cincinnati $500.
1t is estimated that 1000 cars will
be shipped from Imperial Valley this
season.
The rains for the past few days has
slowed up the movement considerable,
but with clear weather again the daily /
shipments are expected to reach so
cars before the end of the week, it
was said, Il

NIGHT CAPS ARE
BEING DOTTED
BY MELON VINES

Imperials thousands of acres Of
baby eantaloupe vines are beginning
to cast aside their might caps" and
assume a definite place in the world
of agriculture, while here and there
an especially enterprising plant has
put forth the first 191 cantaloupe
blossoms.
Tens of thousands of acres, an of
ficial estimate of 2l,000 acres by the
Southern Pacific, have been planted
and face the most uncertain market
ing conditions in the history of I'm
perial Valley cantaloupes. The in
creased freight rates have brought a
burden which the cantaloupe indus
try has not vet borne. Deflation Of
all lines in the east, if applied to
cantaloupss, will bring an added
problem for the growers to face. No
one now can foretell what either one
Or both of these factors will do TO the
coming crop.
This year as never before the in
dustry will be in the hands of Ameri-
can and Japanese farmers, financed
individually, and to a great extent
free from the contract system as Of
yCTe. MS has DtcH Drought dDOul
by the refusal Of the distributors to
make the customary advances. Their
action has been caused by uncertain
marketing conditions.
Therefore those who have wished
to raise cantaloupes have been forced
to finance themselves in many in
stances. These conditions, it would
seem, would tend to discourage plant
ing. Such has not been the case for
early estimates place the total acre
age as high as last years first es-
innate did This years crop will
probably be smaller than last years
21,000 record acreage, but it does not
appear this way at this time.
The grower at this time is devoting
his entire attention to his fields and
not studying the market.
Nowhere in the world is the same
amount Of care given the production
of early cantaloupes that Imperial
Valley growers give. Cantaloupe
land usually lies idle from July until
December resting" The finest al
falfa land with soft sol ! usually
makes excellent cantalCupe land.
These alfalfa tracts command prem
ium prices from prospective lessee.
In November or early December
Imperial Valley press., 1921-01-24

the land is plowed, narrowed twice
and sometimes pulverized to prepare
the proper seed bed. Ridging is al
ways done from east to west, never
from north end to the south end of
the field. This is to allow the seeds
to be planted en- the south slope of
tie ridge, thus getting more direc.
rays Of sunlight. The ridges them
selves are about seven feet across.
After the land has been ridged the
seeds are planted in followed out de-
pressions on the south slope. The de-
preston is usually made by coping
out seperal handfuls of earth. In
the warm soil of this depression from
five to seven seeds are planted, just
beneath the surface.' Later the hill
is thinned down to two or three sturdy
vines. The hills are placed some two
feet apart.
The warm sunshine of December
and January noontime brings the lit
tie plants to the surface, but here
they would meet disaster if the chilly
highs, the somtimes frosty mornings
and the occasional wind storms were
W lIiCIl.
The Imperial grower, raising canta-
lcupes when a difference of three
days in marketing time may mean
$1,000 a car takes no chances. Each
seed plant at the time of planting is
rooted by miniature tent of strong
white porous paper, stretched over
etheri one or two rounded wires, and
the lower edges firmly held in place
by sand. Inside this tent or might
cap" the baby vines grow unmolested
by the whimes of the weather man
until the middle OF February when all
daner gof frost is past.
This porous paper allows the
warmth from the outside TO creep in,
until eahc plant grows in what might
be termed a miniature hot house.
Suitable ventilation is also provided
for.
The US of these night caps is solely
for the purpose of aiding in producing
earlier cantalodpes. Each day in
early May that one cantaloupe grower
can outstrip his neighbor means cash
and annually the fight to put the first
cantaloupes on the market is re-
fought. .F,-
This year at least one enterprising
grower had cantaloupes in blossom
January Is. This does--not mean
necessarily, that he will have the first
ripe melons, for a hard wind storm or
chilly night may nip his crop and al
low his slower neighbor to come in
first.
Any way you look at it, it is big
gamble, but twenty acres Of early
cantaloupes and a market that paid
first season prices have many times
allowed the fortunate grower to re-
tire, and there are always others
ready to take their chances.

backing the rain. The odds vary with
