The Southern Cold Waye

The extraordinarily cold weather which
visited all the Southern states in December
and again in February caused an immense loss
in fruit and vegetables which will be felt not
only by the producers but also by the railways
as we'll. The transportation of oranges and f
early garden truck" from Florida and other
parts of the south forms an important part o.
the freight traffic during the winter, and spe
cial Arrangements are made for its quick hand
ling. The aggregate loss IN Florida alone from
injury to orange trees is estimated as high as
$4,000 which means that all industries in
that state including the transportation lines,
have received heavy blow. A temperature OF
IA degrees at Jacksonville and of ~, with o
snowstorm at Tampa, is an unheard of phenom.
enon. against which. of course. no precautions
could be taken by the growers Of semi-tropical
productions. 1t certainly is to be hoped thet
the losses may not prove az heavy as is feared,
and that the experiences of the dreadful winter
of 1S95-almost unprecedented in severity in
the north as well as south not again have
TO be endured. Railway Age.

orangs shippers have their hands more than
full at present as orders for fruit are coming
in faster than they can fill them. One cause Of
delay in shipment is the difficulty experienced
in getting boxes. Most oil the boxes used
come from the lumber regions in the northern
part of the state, and some of the box makers
there are little slow in filling orders for boxes
which retards filing orders for oranges,
Local box makers and paper dealers are doing
nice business in supplying boxes and wrap
pers to the fruit men.
While nearly all the fruit in every section Of
the citrus belt is of the finest quality, there
is some complaint about the preponderance of
small sizes of seedlings in some sections.
hat are smaller than 25O's; that is, it requires
more tfan $50 of them to make a box. Nothing
smaller than 250s are supposed to be included
in the regular quotations. and growers are
compelled to take what they can get for
smaller sizes
The San Francisco auction sales continue to
give satisfactory results, About two carloads
are disposed Of at each sale and there is a
demand for more fruit than is offered. The
exchanges are selling only cleanup lots by the
auction system.

The following recent telegraphc dispatch TO the
San Francisco Chronicle clearly shows that the
town of Ell Moro, located on FL Moro Bay the only
land locked bay between San Francisco and Los
Angeles, has an assured prospect of becoming one
OF the most important shipping points on TINS
Coast:
"Washington, JAN 1e.--The Secretary of War TO-
day transmitted to Congress the report of pre-
-liminary examination of the harbor of III Moro
Cal. In his report Lieutenant Colonel W. IL. H.
Benyaurd the officer in charge, speaks OF the sur
roundings of harbor, and says that II would pay
the government to undertake to make improve
ments. so far as the commerce OF that section OF
the country is concerned, and for the develop
ment of the adjacent country it would more than
compe nsate the government, as the land could ne
divided into small lots and grain could be raised
In view of this the Colonel recommended that the
