No Profit In Growing This Gem Of Melons
Americas fruit growers who plant ed canteloupes extensively this sum mer will hardly do so again, in view of their experience from a financial point of view. The fruit thus grown here was of finest quality, far sur passing the celebrated Rocky Fords or any other variety. Many solid carloads have been shipped from Americus since the season opened. Returns from commission houses were unsatisfactory. one carload of about 550 crates last week netted a little more than five dollars, less than one cent per crate. This would not pay for nails used in the crates and is discouraging to the industry.
