Slightly Spoiled Fruit After

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan s.-Temper.
atures four to six degrees lower than
Sunday night were recorded here,
blasting the hopes of orange and
lemon growers. 1t was admitted that
citrus fruit losses would be ex-
tremely heavy. Estimates of dam.
age ran from S10,000,000 to $4,000
600 Railroad freight losses, figured
in terms OF shipment, were shown in
the statement OF the shippers that
the 1913 crop of oranges and lemons
would be 10000 To 10000 carloads
short
Last years crop netted growers
$So,O00,000. Eleven millions went to
the railroads in freight and refrigera-
ton charges. Al the beginning OF the
season this years crop value was es-
timated at $4,000, 900. and, accord
ing to the heads OF various fruit 1850
Citations and firms, the damage done
by the present two day freeze will
amount perhaps to one-halr the value
OF the entire crop.
Depends on the Government.
Actual losses to both growers and
railroads, however, will be dependent
to a certain extent upon the attitude
OF the government toward the ship
ment OF slightly damaged fruit.
w. A. Randolph, head OF the big
shipping concern, declared that If
the government held the same at
titude as it did last year in the north
ern ''sweated fruit" cases, the present
crop would be the smallest in the
history of the citrus industry. The
government ruled that oranges which
had been subjected to the sweating
process were adulterated food and
contiscated the entire shipment. Grow
ers believe that a slight application
OF sweating" would take the frost
out OF a great deal of fruit which
otherwise would be useless.
Nearly 100 carloads of oil, distill-
ate aanda.othars fuei4were used in the
smudging operations. In Redlands
the orchardlsts quit trying to do any
thing when the thermometer showed
