CANTALOUPE 
CULTURE. Cantaloup e or Muskmelon must not, under ordinary gardening conditions, be 
planted until all danger of frost has passed. The soil must be thoroughly soaked down to 
sub-moisture, either by rain or irrigation. When dry enough, plow to 1 0 or 12 inches deep 
and thoroughly pulverize the soil. Prepare furrows 4 to 5 inches deep, and 6 to 7 feet apart, 
according to space which can be spared. Then plant the seed in the furrows 6 to 7 feet apart, 
covering the seed not more than 1 inch deep. As the plant grows, gradually fill up the fur¬ 
row with the soil until level with surface. Do not irrigate close to the plant as it will cause 
dampening off and other diseases. Practice frequent hoeing or shallow cultivation, and al¬ 
ways cultivate the irrigation furrow as soon as the soil is dry enough to mulch nicely after.
