Lime on soil boosts cantaloupes at Hope station
Ware reports lime trials at the Fruit and Truck Experiment Station near Hope show one ton of ground limestone per acre yields more than twice as many cantaloupes as an unlimed plot. Treatments of four tons per acre gave little extra gain. Lime works for several years and can be applied anytime, best after liming with a legume crop, and followed by the regular crop. Various spreaders exist. a simple method is 20 pound piles 20 feet apart, totaling about one ton per acre. Ground limestone is typically cheapest per ton in car lots, with price around 30.00, including hauling and spreading about 3.00 per acre. A $6.00 investment may guarantee a strong return for the average farmer. The note ends with a line about the first Chinese daily in America, published in San Francisco.
