FRUIT MEN PUZZLED
Working Out Transportation
Plans for Canal.
CALIFORNIAN EXPERT HERE
Investigates Interstate Commissions
Decisions for Growers League
of His State.

G. Harold Powell. for several years one
of the citrus fruit experts Of the De-
partment OF Agriculture. and now presi-
dent Of the Fruit Growers League of
California, was at the Department OF
Agriculture today, being in Washington
in connection with business before the
Interstate commerce commission.
The California Fruit Growers League
is the biggest cooperative marketing or
ganization in the United States. 1t ham
dies 60 per cent of the citrus fruits of the
Pacific coast and is interested in the de-
partment's enforcement Of the pure food
law, especially where it relates to brands
and markings Of fruit and the problem
that many of the fruit growers have been
interested in recently of the artificial col
oring Of fruit by sweating at high tenn
peratures.
Interest in Canal Opening.
The league is looking forward with
intense interest to the opening Of the
Panama canal because of the effect 1T
naturally will have on transportation
charges between the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts. The league has found by inves-
tigation that the transportation charges
on fruit shipments from the Mediterran-
can region to the Atlantic coast points Is
about one-fourth of the cost of rail trans
portation between the Pacific and Allan
tic. When the canal is opened there will
be water route between the two coasts
and the question before the fruit pro-
ducers is whether this route can be made
to affect the rate on perishable ship
ments.
1t is accepted as a fact that it will cut
the rate of transportation on on-perish-
able goods, but 1t will require great deal
of special apparatus and special expert
menting to adapt the water route to fruit

French chauffeur, who came on an early
train, to take his seat in the farm buggy.
They started on the journey home with
no prospect of conversation. as neither
could speak the language Of his COM

Mr.. and Mrs Carroll descended from
the electric car in which they had ridden
from Baltimore accompanied by their
son. Charles Carroll. jr., who may decide
to take charge of the manor. according
to his fathers wish.
There was hearty greeting from mas
ter and mistress for old Dave The

horses steadily while Mr.. and Mrs. Car
