the disappointment that the company
feels over tho peach results. sour
movement of peaches has been far be-
low that of year before last" he said
Last year we did not expect anything
from peaches as the crop was practic-
ally total failure. This year, how
ever, we expected something like
5000, 600 baskets and our movements
show that there Will not be much over
million. The peach movement has
been great disappointment to us, and
In this we share losses with the fruit
growers.
