FEEDING THE WORLD
United States Ships Apples to
Many Places.
BOSTON Is ONE CENTER
Nearly 100000 Barrels
Have Left That Port.

8oston, Nov 20,-This is the time Of
the year when the apple merchant is a
man OF great Importance in commercial
circles, for the United States is feeding
the world on apples and Boston is one of
the principal ports Of shipment-in fact,
it is second only 10 New York, and since
the season opened has sent out 2S1SSoi bar
reIs.
There is no limit TO the area which con-
tributes; apples pour in in train-loads
from all points of the compass, and the
piers of the International Mercantile Mar
inc company's steamship lines are
crowded with the barrels, and every
steamship going to England takes thoUs-
ands OF barrels in the holds
Last week 4S,Ol3 barrels were shipped
from Boston Al $50 to Liverpool; 5,24f to
London: 1,32oO TO Rotterdam, and SO 10
Manchester. The London shipment was
the first from Boston and the few barrels
sent TO Manchester were tucked in to
complete a very full cargo on the Ley
land liner lberian. for that city gets its
supply through Liverpool.
From the early days of the autumn
TO the middle of the spring season the
apples VIII be exported; just now they
are moving in large quantities, but in
a few days there will be a break. in
order to let in the Christmas merchan-
disc; that disposed Of the apples Will be
started, and as the winter advances the
later varieties which are best adapted for
spring consumption will be coming into
the cargoes.
To provide for this important item in
cargoes, the Leyland line ships on the
London and Boston service have been
equipped with electrician YeHtilators
which cause a current of fresh cool air
TO pass through the holds where the
apples are slowed, to prevent their heat
ing during the voyage. These ventlat
ing fans have been put into the steam
ships Winifredian, Bohebian. Canadian,
Cestrian, and Devonian, and when one is
in operation 1t draws a powerful breath
of fresh air into the hold The fans
are operated by a IA horse power dynamo
and the draught is st strong as to lift |
chips Of wood and other light substances |
with ease and blow them on deck.
BY watching the work of the ventila- /
tors the temperature of the holds can /
be brought very near to outside atmos |
phere if necessary, or an even degree /
maintained. The same Ventilator also I
helps TO keep the temperature Of the /
cattle decks at a more comfortable de- /
gree
The Leyland steamships from Boston
reach Liverpool il nine days, and with
these ventiIators the apple freights. ar
kept as safely as if in cold storage ware
houses ashore. The apple-market in Eng
land is active, the demand being good and
pieces holding up well. Last week Liver
pool received JOG barrels and still the
demand continues. So far from United
States and Canadian ports there have
Eoeen shipped abroad 1,SS9025 barrels of
apples which is more than a hall million
more than for the same period of 1902

COMMITTEE
NOW HAS COAST AGENT

Frank M. Jenifer, who for the past
year has been one of the two travelling
passenger agents of the steamship and
railway lines between Australia and
American and European points, has
been engaged as Pacific Coast agent
of the Hawaii Promotion Committee,
with offices in San Francisco. Mr.
Jenifer has alternated in coming to
Honolulu in the Alameda, to return to
San Francisco in the Australian liner
next following. He has been over the
islands extensively during these sew
eral trips, and is therefore able to COM
bine an accurate knowledge of Hawaii
with personal acquaintance among the
railway men of the Pacific Coast. Mr..
Jenifer has been in the passenger busi-
ness for many years, having been in
the service of the Santa Fe Railway
Co. before he went to the Oceanic
Steamship Co., which was the moving
factor in the formation of the A. & A.
through line.
General Passenger Agent Cockroft, of
the Oceanic Co., has been working in

him by the Ventura to release Mr..
Jenifer for work with the local inter-

information yesterday told Chairman
Smith of the commencement of work
by the new official of the Promotion
Committee.
The committee has secured the SER
vices of L. L. Whitlock, who conducts
in Los Angeles the Travel and Hotel
Bureau, a newly established concern
having the support of the principal
railroad lines and southern California
hotels, and work in that district is
therefore being pressed vigorously.
Miss Whitlock has had eight years
experience in Southern California tour
ist work, and has already undertaken
the organization of special conducted
parties to come to Hawaii. Should
this plan prove success, it is the in
tention that Mrs. Walker, formerly of
the Melrose of this city, will be engag-
ed as guide and chaperone. The Pro-
motion Committee is already securing
all possible data as to routes and ex-
penses, for the purpose of furthering
the organization of these personally

Note. Of Sanitation in Cities on
Line of Travel-Where
Graft Rules.

f Clifton H Tracy, city sanitary Off
Ger, returned last week from a swift
vacation flight to the Atlantic coast,
physically refreshed and mentally for
tilted for resumption of the war with
the Dirt devil and the Mosquito demon.
From San Francisco he went to Los
Angeles. from thence to Newton and
Wichita, Kansas, the last named city
being his birth place. Staying there
two days visiting relatives, he pro-
ceeded thence direct to Philadelphia,
from there going to Bedford Springs,
Penn, and Carlisle in the Cumberland
valley. He tarried at Baltimore and
visited Hampstead, Nd, near Gettys-
burg; then on to Washington, New
York, Brooklyn, up the Hudson river,
through Albany and Utica to Carthage,
in northern New York. Sackett's
Harbor at the Eastern end of Lake
Ontario was touched, from whence Mr.
Tracy went down to Binghampton and
Dansville, near Rochester, visiting rel
atives ali through. Buffalo and Nj
agara Falls he took in. then struck
the honeward trail by way of the Den
yer & Rio Grande, through Salt Lake
City and Ogden, taking the Sonoma for
his adopted isles of the blest.
Mr.. Tracy brings home some new
ideas for the mosquito campaign,
which he is imparting to Mr.. Larnach,
captain in that warfare, which will be
seen in working evidence shortly Re-
garding his observations by the way,
Mr.. Tracy said to an Advertiser report
er yesterday:
"In going through I took particular
pains to notice wherever I could the
sanitary conditions of cities in gener-
al I saw San Francisco but a very
small part of time, a day or two. At
Los Angeles I was very favorably i'm
pressed with the sanitary conditions.
Plumbing is strictly up-to-date there,
being new city. Long Beach, a
| neighboring seaside resort, is also in
excellent condition. Sewers are being
put in there and general conditions are
exceedingly good.
| Going east I did not have much
chance to observe things, with but
| half-hou,r stops at some stations. From
| the Rockies on East to the Mississippi
| river the towns are in very bad con-
| dition, without sewers and using the
dry earth closet system. Omaha and
| a few other places draining into rivers
| are exceptions.
"In Chicago the conditions are bet
| ter, but was surprised very much tc
see some of the sewage running into
| the Chicago river in the middle of tht
city. I did not see the big drainage
canal.
Cleveland, O., from what could
judge in short time, is in very goot
shape. Niagara, Buffalo, and all tn,
| cities along the lake shore are ais,
progressive, being far ahead of INLAND
towns, which are IN bad condition
The rivers were awfully muddy ant
dirty, all sorts of stuff floating down
apparently sewage. Most of the town
in that section have garbage crema
tories.
Philadelphia is getting out of tn
mire. For a long time it was in th
hands of graft. Now all the plumbin;
is up-to-date and the sewers are il
good condition.
