phases of the growing industry.
The foregoing committees are fully alive

usual courtesy extended to this associa-
ton, have made the rate on the Northern
| Pacific, Great Northern and Union Pacific
/ lines, one and one-ffth fare; and on the
Southern Pacific line one and One-third
fare for the round trip. The apparent diff
ference of rates is caused by the Southern
Pacifc's lower tariff rate, it being only
four cents per mile as against a fve-cent
per mile rate of the other companies. They
have also expressed a willingness to trans
port all legitimate exhibits of fruits, botf

discussed, especially the charges by refrig
orator car companies, which must be ad
iusted on a livc-and-let-live basis.
