THANKSGIVING ORANGES
 SHIPPED ID NEW YORK
The First Carload of ine Yellow Fruit Left Phoenix Saturday-One Day from Now On Will Be Shipped.

The first carload of Salt River val ley oranges left Phoenix over the San ia Fe Saturday.
 While it had been the intention of the Arizona Orange association to get the first car off several days earlier namely. on the 12th, it took several days to get the big packing house in first-class running order. Now that all of the packers and sorters have learned just what is expected of them and the p'ckers on all of the groves are hard | work gathering the yellow spheres. the next cars will be loaded in less time and with less confusion.
 Beginning this week the cars will leave Phoenix daily laden with the fruit
 The first car went to New York, where the oranges will arrive in time for Thanksgiving. It will be the first mature fruit on the market and will have only the green fruit of the Cali fornia groves to compete with. The first car contained also large amount of lemons.
 The shipments this year are under the direction of Spiech & Co. of Riv- erside MT. Spiech has but lately re- turned from the east, where he made arrangements for the disposition of the entire crop This will simplify the bookkeeping of the association and do away with a vast deal of correspond ence made necessary by the methods of disposing of the oranges last year.
 As far as can be told now, there will be about 100 carloads shipped this year as against I1s last. though many pre- dictions are that the crop will be about the same.
 The fruit will be superior in quality to last years and will probably run a little larger, though the individual pro- duction of each grove varies in quail. ity and size. Although there is pos sibility that there may not be quite so many cars shipped as last year, the extra fine quality of the fruit. which is better than for several seasons past, will bring higher prices and the amount received for the entire crop should be as much or more than last year. Wagon loads or fine yellow oranges are drawing up at the entrance of the packing house at short intervals all during the day and the house will be kept busy till the middle of January.
