12 CARS CANTALOUPES
 SATURDAY EVENING
Largest Shipment of Cantaloupes from over Prescott X NOrthwes- tern Made Saturday Evening
 62 Cars Shipped to Date

The local freight train operated over the Prescott X Northwestern railroad Saturday evening brought in 12 cars of cantaloupes and one car of Watermelons. This is the largest number of cars that have been shipp- ed this season in one day and is the only car of watermelons that have been sent from the truck growers along this line.
 One of the officials of the Prescott & Northwestern this morning stated that it now looked as if the crop woul would not exceed 100 cars, provided it did not rain. A rain right now would increase the crop 10 or 25 cars.
 Peaches will begin to move today and this crop is distressingly short. Several months ago the yield from the Johnson orchard at Highland was estimated at something like 800 cars and since that time this has been reduced greatly and now it is stated that something like 100 cars will be the total peach crop from all the growers.
