What They Are Doing 

 in California 



"Dunning true to the progressive form of the 

 state. Imperial valley melon growers and ship- 

 pers arc co-operating with the Bureau of Markets, 

 United States Department of Agriculture, in the 

 matter of broadening their distribution. The de- 

 partment opens a temporary office at Brawley, 

 Calif., at the beginning of the season, and by 

 means of a large chart is able to know the daily 

 distribution of each day's shipments and divertions. 

 It is in telegraphic communication with 20 to 25 

 of the country's big markets and Is able to visualize 

 upon the chart the exact state of each for the 

 benefit of all shippers, who have free access at all 

 times to the chart. There is no discrimination i 

 all have an equal knowledge of market condi- 

 tions.

ClXTEEN years ago California supplied only 

 about one-fourth of the lemons used in the 

 United States, the balance being imported from 

 Sicily. Today three-fourths of this country's de- 

 mand is grown in the state. There are today 

 22,651 acres of bearing lemon trees and 16,799 

 acres non-bearing. This nieans that some day we 

 will be producing approximately 75 per cent more 

 lemons than we do today.
