Oranges Brins High Price

The returns have been received from the car of oranges shipped to New York for the Thanksgiving market. and on the ear to Denver. The first car lot averaged S5.50 per box or a little over $2. lD0 for the car. Some of the boxes sold in the market for as high as s8.00, which is fancy price. The Arizona or ange commanded much better sum than its competitors from Call ifornia, which were not nearly so good in quality and not so large. The car lot to Denver sold for an average of $5 co per box, while the California product in the same market brought only $3.00. This excellent showing should be a great encouragement to the growers and to others who are looking for a nice paying investls:;c.:::.. in planting new groves in the valley The packing house is now running full blast till ten o'clock at night and is shipping out three cars day. About sixty hands are now em- ployed at the packing house. The fruit is coming in fast and it is in quality the finest of the season and excells every other orange now on the market.
