Dates were originally a Mo- hammedan or Arabian produ ind growers still follow the “harem” cus- tom. They usually plant one male date tree for each acre of female date trees. The history of date growing is older than the history of civilization, and we find it outlined both as to culture and methods of serving in the clay tablets of ancient Assyria. It is al- most the national industry of the Arabs, and we always closely associ- ate the name of dates with the Arabian sheiks riding across the im- mense desert regions on camels. The Arabs have lonz since held the date in great esteem, since it is a very satisfying food, due to the large amount of carbohydrates which it contains, and its concentrated food value is important to those who cross dreary wastes where every ounce counts. Dates are one of the few foods which can be grown in the desert .| regions of the world where there are long sunny days with a high tem- perature and dry air. One date tree may give as much as a hunrded pounds of fruit per year. Even one bunch of dates sometimes weighs as much as thirty pounds.
