The fact that fruit cars arc hauled
fr.m San Francisco to Chicago FIR ST.
800 per car reminds the editor of a lit
tic story. Shortly after the conplction
Of the Union Pacific au old friend of
ours and an invc,ratc wag, Ed. Ray,
who OWNS big ranch in Carson Valley
Nevada, came through to Chicago, and
while in the city concluded to by "a car
load Of agricultural implem nts for use
OF his :arm. He visited tho Union
Pacific office, and cnqpircl the price of
car, and the agent, taking his address
romiscd to drop him 4 line giving him
the rates. Ii due time the notification
arrived, TIE figure being somewhere up
in the thousand. Ed read The note
carefully, and they sent the following
rep'y:

that these three tons will not weigh out
