communication published tn your paper OF the
1st Inst, calls tue attention Of the Transports
tiou companies aud others to tho importance Of
providing means Of protecting fruit md other
similar pcEtshahls articles from shs effects Of
low temperatures during their transportation In
winter. Ar. Wills seems not to % aware OF the
fact that the car which will successfully resist
influence OF high Temperatures tn summer will
likewise reaist the inlucuce OF low temperature
in wluter. 4 car can be 70 constructed that It
will resist this trost Of the coldest weather for
fifteen. twenty, Or even forty days, aud that
without the use Of sny heating apparatus what
ever during the time. 4 car body properly con-
s,ructcd aud insulated win reference to pre-
venting the Interchange Of temperature between

transport tlu most delicate fsutta during the
coldcat weather In winter without danger frnln
