Oranges by the Carload.
From the New York World.

Oranges are eaten one by one. But
when they leave Los Angeles for the
East and for Europe it is by whole
trainloads of forty cars each, all laden
and fragrant with the luscious yellow
globes. AS many as 200 carloads have
been sent East in a single day.
A writer in the London Times gives
some amazing figures of the fruit ex-
ports from Southern California. OF
oranges and lemons there were ex-
ported in 1902 1000, 900 boxes of seventy
pounds each. From the Los Angeles
district about $4,000 carloads were sent
by rail, each carload representing
from twelve to fifteen tons of fruit.
OF prunes California distributed $780,
100000 pounds, or raisins 10O, OO0. 900
pounds and of dried peaches 60, 900.
900 pounds
The total exports of dried fruits of
all descriptions from California for the
year amounted to 1926, 900. 900 pounds
In the same period California export
ed 100000 boxes of apples, each box
representing fifty pounds of fruit, and
of these $4,000 We're shipped to Lon

MATTERS BEFORE
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
July Meeting VIII BE Held This
Afternoon Mt Court House.

July Meeting Will Be Held This
Afternoon at Court House.
The July meeting of the County
Commissioners will be held this aft
ernoon at the Court House.
A number of matters of importance
will come up before the board, and it
is probable that the meeting will be
long one.
Principal in Importance will be the
consideration of the proposed tree
nursery. The committee which was
appointed at the last meeting to con-
fer with the City Council will make
its report, and further action will
probably be taken.
The petition of citizens for a road
to the Avondale range and other inter-
mediate points will probably be con-
sidered. Much interest is felt in the
matter. The petition has been gener-
ally signed, but there has been some
delay occasioned by difficulty encount-
cred in securing a right of way. 1t
is thought, however, that this will soon
be obviated.
County Attorney George T. Cam will
also make a report to the board rela-
tive to the communication received by
them from the CHAIRMAN OF the state
Board of Roads and Revenues, in
which the assurance of the county to
take its pro rata share of the convicts
exported from non-convict working
counties, in the event of the passage
of the Fielder bill, is sought.
Col. Cam will not render an opinion,
it is thought but will submit data rel
ative to the various measures which
have been introduced looking to the
adjustment of the present lease sys-
tenn. Several OF the counties in the
state have already replied to Commits
sioner Palmer's. letter of inquiry, Civ
ing their assurance of their co-opera-
ton in the event of the passage of the
bill
There are a number of other peti-
tions to be considered by the commits
sioners besides those named, and the
meeting will probably be productive of
interest.

NEW LINE HAULS
MANY PASSENGERS

The new Mill-Haven Line of the
Savannah Electric Company, which
was opened a few days ago. has proved
Quite as popular and as profitable as
the company expected it would when
constructing it. It has proved a great
convenience to those who are employed
at the various manufactures and
plants along its route as may be seen
from the fact that since inaugurated
it has carried between 500 and 600 pas
sengers a day.
One large vestibule car, capable Of
carrying nearly, if not quite a hun
dred persons, is operated during the
rush hours of the morning and late aft
ernoon, making its first trip from the
city at $40 o'clock, a. m, while dur
ing the remainder of the day a smaller
car is used.
The route of the early cars has been
changed. AS it would be useless to
make the trip along the business por-
ton of Bay street at so early an hour
the trip to the manufacturing district
has been shortened by having the early
cars leave Bay and Whitaker streets,
make the run on Whitaker to Brough-
ton and thence over the route as orig
inally planned. The other cars make
the complete trip eastward on Bay
street to Abercorn, then on Broughton
and out the regular West End line
route. The regular schedule has not
yet been completed, but will be short
ly.

GOOD SEASON FOR PRODUCE.
weather Conditions Have Been
Favorable for Growth of All Truclx.

weather Conditions Have Been
Favorable for Growth of All Truck.
The local produce markets are album
dainty supplied now with vegeta bles
and fruit, the result of a favorable
season for the development of products
of the truck farm and orchards. The
indications in the early part of the
season were that the peach crop would
be short and that the development of
the fruit would be retarded and a
poorer variety the result. But such has
not been the case, and the afinest
peaches seen on the local market in
years are to be found at all of the
stands and produce houses.
The refreshing showers that have
fallen every few days for the last few
weeks has brought the products of the
truck farm out in abundance and UNI
usually fine varieties The shipments
to Northern markets have been heavier
than usual for this season of the year.
and still there is plenty of the finest
for the local market. In speaking of
the markets this year a prominent
dealer said yesterday:
at looked rather blue for us early
in the season with the continued cool
weather right into the lap of summer,
but | don't know but what the cool
season was not a God send. Vege-
tables and fruit did not develop so rap
idly it is true, but in both instances
finer varieties were produced, and as
a consequence we are offering the best
stock that we have handled in years.
Especially is this so in tomatoes. You
will notice that the variety of to-
matoes that you get in the restaurants
this summer are far better than they
were last summer, which is equally
true of the other products"

FIRST REGIMENT WINNING
PRAISE ON ALL SIDES,
Col. EstiH Returns from Augusta
Where lie Had Been in Camp.

Col. EstiI Returns from Augusta
where lie Had Been in Camp.
Col. ]. II. Estill returned yesterday
from Augusta, where he has been in
camp with the First and Third regi-
ments of infantry. He made the trip
up with the First Regiment, and i'm
mediately went into camp, where he
remained during his stay in Augusta
Col. Estin was pronounced in his
praise of the First Regiment. The eff
cheney OF the officers impressed him
particularly. All of the officers. from
Col. Gordon down, he considers of a
high degree of competency, and while
wondering at the excellence in which
the men executed commands and OBJ
served the strict letter of discipline, he
said il is readily explained when one
becomes acquainted with the officers
and the men. This is, he says, also
true of the Third Regiment, which is
an excellent body of troops.
The people of Augusta. Col. Estil
said, have done everything in their
power to make the encampment a sue
cess, and every indication points TO
one of the most instructive and success
full encampments that has ever been
held in the state. The men are called
out for duty at o'clock in the morn
ing, when, after coffee and bread, they
are put through a steady and appetite
ing drill. at the conclusion Of which
breakfast is had at the mess halls, and
the tour of duty begins for the day.
Col. Estill is confident that the young
men from Savannah will leave only a
good impression behind them in Au-
gusta. The personnel of the regiment
and its esprit de corps has been the
subject of remark by many of the citi-
zens of Augusta who have visited the
camp.
