Early Crops Get Highest Prices 
In order to grow profitable vine crops, the grower must do everything possible to insure the 
greatest yield of early fruit at a minimum cost. The use of plant protectors or field forcers has 
proved a decided advantage in growing these crops. 
We have tried a number of other plant protectors side* by side with Hotkaps and Hotents in 
our melon fields but have found none which have equal ability to stand high winds and beating 
rains. Select the size best suited to your needs. 
Hotkaps are simply scientifically constructed wax 
paper cones, which are placed over the plant or hill of 
seeds in the field. They act as miniature hot houses, 
enabling the grower to set out his plants or plant his 
seed as soon as the ground is warm. They afford perfect 
protection to the young plants from frost, wind and 
beating rains and also from insects, such as the striped beetle. It also prevents the ground from 
baking around the plant. This makes for earlier and better fruit.
