The mode of handling and the means o
transportation of this produce have proved
ample and satisfactory. The farmers, gene
rally, ship their produce to the North through
the we'll known commission houses Of Messrs.
Klnsman & Howell, Messrs. Paul, Welch d
Brandes, Messrs. John F. O'Neill & Son, and
Messrs. Kanapaux & Gonzalez, and from the
time that 1t leaves their farms they have no
further care as 10 Its disposition. These
houses receive 1t on board the rail road car or
steamer, send 1t to the most promising mar
ket, effect its sale, pay the freight and wharf
age, and turn over the proceeds Gess ten per
cent. commission, which is divided equally
between the Charleston house and their
Northern correspondents) to the farmer.
they also make frequent advances to the
farmers, sometimes In seed and fertilizers,
and sometimes In money, and thus both par
ties have reciprocal interest In the success
of the crops.
The transportation Is either by the North
eastern Railroad, or by the steamers of the
Iron Line to New York, Philadelphia and Bal.
timore, aud those of Adger's Line to New
York. These afford prompt and ample tacili'
ties, and all land the produce at the several
markets In excellent order, though the FALL.
road Is generally preferred by the shippers In
this respect. The tariff by steamer to Balti.
more is twenty-five cents per crate and fifty
cents per barrel, and to Philadelphia and New
York 1t is thirty cents per crate and sixty
cents per barrel; and to this must be added
three cents upon each package for wharfage.
Ry rail the charge to Baltimore and New York
is fifty cents per crate and seventy ty-hVe cents
per barrel, and to Philadelphia sixty cents per
crate and seventy-1ge cents per barrel.
The quantity OF produce forwarded last sea-
son 10 the Northern markets was as follows:
To New York, l7,425 barrels of potatoes, IS, 1856
crates of small Vegela ables; to Baltimore, 1893
barrels of potatoes, 1929 crates of vegetables;
to Philadelphia, 877 barrels of potatoes, 6425
crates of vegetables; total, 1895 barrels Of
potatoes and 53,45O crates OF vegetables, or a
grand aggregate of say l33, ,436 bushels of pro-
duce. Wilmington furnishes to the same mar
kets about half this quantity. and Norfolk
sends about the same amount as Charleston.
