Much has already been done in the way of developing markets, as 
is proven by the fact that in 1908 a crop of 1,891 cars was marketed 
at prices ruinous to all concerned, probably causing heavier losses 
than any other crop in the history of the industry, while now a crop 
of twice that size can be handled easily with profit. While the work 
of educating the public is tedious and often expensive, the broadened 
markets which result make it worth while. 
SALT RIVER VALLEY DISTRICT, ARIZONA. 
HISTORY. 
The Salt River Valley district of Arizona begins to ship musk- 
melons at about the time when shipments from the Imperial Valley 
begin to decrease. In 1915 the first car was shipped from Mesa on 
July 4, and the last car was shipped from Glendale on August 1.
