Something For
Valley Farmer
To Think About
tBeaumont Entcrprise)

Sunset Magazine tells OF an invcsti-
gator of the California department Nj
agriculture who visited the Imperial
Valley last summer and observed thar
most Of the eantaloupes being shipped
were hard. unripe and tastcicss. When
he asked the shippers about IL. they re-
piled invariably tnat after five or SiN
days on the road the melons would be
ripe and ready for the market
The Investigator made test. IN the
same refrigerator car he loaded crates
Of eautaloupes graded as unripe. just
ripe and over-ripe. and then accom-
panied the car on its eross-country
trip.
AT the end Of the journey ~ found
the three grades in exactly the same
condition as they were at the start
The unripe ones were unfit 20 cat.
The ripe ones. unloaded and kept for
two days in ordinary living teinpera-
tura. were delicious. The dead rlae
ones remained good 20 eat for two
days and then turned soft rapidly.
He concluded that there was no reason
why a single crate or unripe canta-
iounes should be shipped out Of Cali
fornin.
Surely this conclusion holds valid
for any other state. and applies like
wise 20 local shipments for any city
market. In late years the selling of
fruits and vegetables in an unripe
state has become an almost universal
evil. In big cities il N almost impos-
sible 10 obtain berries or tomatoes fit
TO eat. because they are shipped 20

In the market. they have no flavor. I'm

ons fruits with the fine fiavor that
comes only from being ripe when they

which fruit-grcwers and dealers ev-
erywhere should give their attention.
