making the farmer the agent for the

farmers who were victimiZed received
consignments of goods, which were
followed a few days later by
bills. one Of them amounting to $14S.
in this particular case the farmer re-
fused to pay the moun of the bill
and suit was commenced against him.
AS the result of the trial 1t developed

The largest cargo of bananas ever re-
ceived in any port of the world reached
here Thursday on the United Fruit corn-
pany's steamer lIsparta from Port I.imcn.
Costa Rica. 1t consisted of 10000 punches
of Limon fruit, which is the largest var
iety of banana shipped to this country.
and it filled $50 box cars. These cars. il
attached to one locomotive. would have
stretched Il distance of a mile and a half.
The work of ~discharging this cargo will
be the greatest task the company has cv,s
undertaken. once the sister ship of the
Esparta, the Limon. arrived with 54.or
lunches of fruit. and up to that time the
record was very much smaller. The
Esparta broke the Limon's record by GOO
punches.
The Southern Pacific road ran out a
special train to assist in the delivery of
this fruit. which will lie scattered all over
the country between ST. Louis and Van
I've A portion of the cargo goes to
Houston. Galveston, San Antonio. Los An
Seles and San Francisco. Another section
will go to Seattle and Vancouver and this
| train will run a special over the Southern
Pacific straight through San Francisco and
up the Pacific coast. Chicago, Omaha,
Kansas City. Detroit. ST. Louis. Indian
| apolis and several smaller cities will be
supplied with fruit from this one single
cargo.
1t took eight trains loaded with nothing
but bananas to carry out tho consignment
and there were fifteen messengers in
charge of tho fruit.

ccived up to "A few years ago. and idea can
be secured as tn the wonderful growth
of the importations.
When the steamers first ran in the fruit
trade they carried on an average of 10000
punches each. just onc-sixth of the Espar-
ta's cargo. These vessels We're chartered
in Norway and made an average of nine
miles an hour The stcamers now in the
trade are magnificent shi.s. fast ana
