far as womans work has evolved in this

been subordinated TO the educational

Sacramento at 10 p. m! it would have to
der to arrive at Ogden at IL p. m. If,
on the other hand, the train left Sacra-
mento at midnight, then forty-eight
hours must be made to land it at Ogden
at midnight.
At Ogden the fruit for the different
routes will be segregated and given to
the Southern Pacific's immediate con-
nections-the Union Pacific or the Rio
Grande Western.
Negotiations have been proceeding for
some time to bring about such a
schedule as would bring California fruit
in Omaha, st. Paul, Chicago, st. Louis,
New York and Boston in time for early
morning deliveries. Under the proposed
schedule it is the intention to put Cali
fornia fruit into Chicago at 3 a. M, in
stead Of as formerly during the daytime.
In the latter event it would have to lie
over for market until the next morn
ing.
The Union Pacific has notified the
Southern Pacific that it would join in
the plan, and General Freight Agent
Hahn of the Rio Grande Western states
that his company and connections will
undertake to do likewise
This is as far as the matter has pro-
crossed so far, but shippers and growers
already state that this plan, if carried
out, will aid greatly the possibilities of
California fruit distribution and give
the industry a fresh stimulus.

ENCOURAGING TO FRUITMEN.
Quicker Transportation East From Sac
ramentO.
Only Fifty-Five Hours to Ogden-The
Eastern Crops Will All
be Short.

California fruit growers and shippers
have every reason to be in happy
mood over the prospects of the coming
season, says the San Francisco Call,
as crops promise to be plentiful, and
the Eastern market, owing to damage
caused by frost in a number of states,
will be in excellent shape to promptly
absorb shipments of California green
fruits at good prices.
On top of this comes the announce
ment that the Southern Pacific Com
pany has made arrangements for special
fast service for fruit trains into Chicago,
New York and Boston. the principal
distributing centers in the East. Under
the plan proposed it will be possible to
place the shipments on the market one
day earlier than heretofore. This will
present the fruit in finer condition and
materially enhance its value.
The season for shipping green fruits
East is about to open, being about two
weeks late, owing to the cool spring
weather. Cherries will be the first
fruits to be shipped in any quantity
They are expected to come into the mar
ket in about two weeks. Apricots Will
follow shortly after and then peaches.
There is every prospect that this year
there will be a splendid market for Cali
fornia fruits in the Atlantic States, be-
cause of the fact that heavy frosts nave
wiped out the greater part of the crops
of Georgia Delaware and New Jersey,
from which States the large markets of
the Atlantic seaboard look for the
larger part of their supply in normal
years.
Those interested in the fruit produc-
ton of California--namely. the growers
and shippers on the one hand and the
TRANSPORTATION companies on the other
have consequently been in negotiation
for the purpose of devising plan MAX
ing it possible to reach the Atlantic
seaboard market in the shortest time
practicable, so that on arrival there the
fruits may be in first-class condition
for distribution out of Chicago, New
York and Boston 10 adjacent cities and
towns, as the demands of the fruit trade
require.
This has brought about something of
a new departure in the proposed hand
ling of trains of green fruit. The great
volume of tonnage win undoubtedly be
moved in refrigerator cars, the same as
the last and previous seasons.
Heretofore the refrigerators have been
moved in regular freight trains, run
ming on customary freight schedule, the
time from Sacramento to Ogden being
about fifty-five hours.
The Southern Pacific now contem-
plates arranging graded schedule from
Sacramento to Ogden, having for its
purpose the movement from Sacramento
of fruit that may offer in trainload guam
titles between y y. m. and midnight
during the active season of fruit ship
ments, delivering it in Ogden by mid
night of the second day. For example:
trainload of fruit leaving Sacramento
at 6 n m. would be delivered at Ogden
in fifty-three hours. arriving there at
IL D. N. of the second day. If it left
