Watermelons And Seed
Used For Many Purposes

In its studies of the control Of
watermelon diseases the UniteI
States Department of Agriculture has
found that there are numerous uses
for watermelons outside of their con-
sumption as a popular fruit. House
wives have long been familiar witt
pickles and preserves made from
watermelon rlnd. In China anC
other oriental countries watermelon
seed is used as a table dellcacy
Seedsmen in this country not onl!
ship seed for this purpose, but also
find a market forstheir product IL
the Chinese district of New York ant
San Francisco. This liking for tn,
seed is evidently not restricted T.
the Orient, for some years ago
well-known explorer reported an Al
rican tribe that sharpened thu
teeth in order to better strip tn,
hulls from watermelon seeds, with.
recent years a firm in Alabama ha
undertaken to manufacture vinegai
from the juice, and from Russl,
come reports that during the pas
few years of hardship concentrate
watermelon juice has been used i.
place Of sugar to sweeten coffee.
The production of watermelo-
seed is an industry by itself. In :
single county in Florida approx
mateIy 1000 acres of watermelon
are grown annually for seed purpose
This one section supplies great por
ton of the watermelon seed plantel
in the United States, and on occasion
also ships foreign planters. In re
cent years shipments. of seed fol-
planting have been made to Tarsus
Asia Minor, to China, and other far,
distant points.
During past years profits in ouI
southern watermelon industry hav,
been severely cut. due to the effec
of several destructive diseases. An
thracnose, a fungous disease of ths
foliage and fruit, means reduce,
yields and pock-marked melons tina
rot in the field and in the freigh
car. Stem-end rot is trouble tina
occurs in transit only, and originate
with infection of the melon by tn,
causal organism at the cut stem. AL
thracnose is controlled by sprayin
the vines; stem-end rot by the prac
tice OF field sanitation and stel
treatment. Plans are being made b.
the Department IF Agriculture to as
sist growers, distributors, and car
riers in the proper application Of dis
ease-control measures during tn,
coming season.
