sas Valley Finding Its Way
Into New Markets. Larger
Quantity Than Usual Shipped
This Season
Until recently there has been very
little demand for the summer apple
crop of the Arkansas valley, and or
chardists have found it difficult to dis
pose of the earlier varieties of their
product at anything like remunerative
prices.
A marked improvement, however.
has been noted in the quotations of
cal buyers during the last two or thI
seasons, and big business has be
built up in this class Of fruit with es
ern dealers, particularly in Kansas
and Omana.
During the last sixty days probs
as many rs twenty carloads of sunni
apples have been shipped from this
to points outside the state, severa
them going as far eastward as St. I
and Chicago. As rule growers
received very gratifying returns
their summer apples this season,
average price being something
seventy cents box, which is far bet.
than nothing.
The Yellow Transparents. Red snd
Yellow Junes and other summer -p-
Piles have nearly all been marketed and
the results have, on the whole, been
very satisfactory to Canon City grow
ers and the superior quality Of the
fruit will give them = prestige that
will enable them TO dispose of their
product at q profitable figure nsxt
year.
The Fremont County Fruit Growers
association had, up to last Saturday,
shipped seven cars of early apples. dis
tributed as follows: Lincoln, Neb-as-
ka, two cars; Sioux City, Iowa, one
car; Cedar Rapids, Iowa, one car;
Omaha, Nebraska. one ear; Des Moiuss.
Iowa, one car; Houston, Texas ,one car.
Mr.. SIlie, manager of the association,
says their shipments have everywhere
been received with great favor and
that a demand has grown up greater
than they can supply
Last year eighteen carloads of win
ter apples were shipped to the above
named points by the association, brt
never, until this season, have these
markets made reqiisition upon Caro-
City for the earlier varieties
The Green Hill Orchards have ship
ped five carloads of apples. mostly TO

in those cities for our fruit which hss
not hitherto existed.

 The chief measures upon which the relies. consist in having the stations occupied by military and trains conducted by soldiers. the navy sup plying engine drivers and stokers.
