PAYETTE GOOD
DISTRIBUTING Point
Some Facts and Figures AIong That
line-Laree Business Done by Fay
cite Cold Storage Company.

Payette as distributing point
shows up some figures that the az
erage citizen hardly realizes, unless
he is connected in Some way vita
the amount of business being done
in that line. There are several /
firms, packing houses and the Idaho
Canning Co. that receive and snip
large quantities of merchandise, fruits
and vegetables, not included in the
9eport compiled herein, which would
6ery largely increase the figures
named below by one Payette COM
pany.
The Payette Cold Storage Co hand
le not only perishable goods through
their Cold Storage Department, but
large quantities through, what is
known as, the Dry Storage Depart
ments and the Oil and Gasoline De-
partment.
During the year 1912 their Dry
Storage Department received and
shipped out upon orders the follow
ing:
Cane Sugar, 5,110 sacks OF 100 lbs.
each.
Flour. 4,7sO sacks of 40 pounds
each.
Fruit Jars, 2,157 cases of II to "a
jars each.
Canned Goods, 1894 cases OF 40 to
60 pounds each.
Steel Stoves, 81 with all fixtures
for each.
Also household furniture, crates
aDd berry boxes in large numbers.
In the Cold Storage Departments
Where was distributed:
6S91- crates Of cherries, grapes,
pears, apricots and tomatoes.
5045 crates of canteloupes, all
preceded before shipping.
2651 cases of eggs, most of them
now shipped out.
1000 pounds of raspberries and re-
currants.
402 tons of ice has been supplied
to the refrigerator cars.
151 tons of ice have have been sup
piled to Payette.
1872 tons of ice have been supplied
to Ontario, Vale, Nyssa. etc.
59754 boxes of apples have been re-
ceived, stored and partly distributed.
In the Oil and Gasoline department
there have been received and dis
tributed 3S,6O6 gallons of gasoline,
and 42,S04 gallons of Head Light
Oil, besides lubricants, stoves, etc.
The berry business has reached
large proportions in the northwest,
from the official figures of "The Puy-
allup G. Summer Fruit Growers AS
sociation" in the state of Washing
ton, there were shipped 1882 crates
of berries, equal to 2691a cars, and
there was supplied to their Cannery
Department 5,122,943 pounds of ber-
ries, equal to about 1T cars. OF the
above there were 33 car loads of red
raspberries.
The Payette Cold Storage Co. in
searching to contract for red raspber-
ries. find that they must guarantee
them in car lots of 10000 pounds
each. as the freight on less than car
lots is so much higher than car lots, +
the buyers refuse to pay the price
F. o. B. Payette. No contract has
been made as yet. Contracts calling
for a multiple of 10000 pounds is
hard one to get over, with the ber-
ry raising so scattered.

Democratic Trust Policy.

Now that the Democrats have got
ten their tariff law enacted, they seem
bent upon making drive at the
trusts Having no means at hand for
carr ing out an antitrust policy they
forsuuth have to fall back upon eX-
istiug law. Thus the action OF Presi-
deut Taft finds Endorsement. In sea-

bringing the Sherman antitrust law
to bear upon the forms of consolida-
