California 0rchardists Cut OF
From Eastern Markets
Facing Ruin
THOUSANDS WILL BE
LEFT WITHOUT WORK
Peaches Worth $l,WO,OOO,
Prunes $5OO,OOO will Be
Lost In Washington

San Francisco, Aug. 31.-With coal
advanced dollar a ton today and pros
poets of subsequent raises, the ztrike
menace is being brought more acutely
to the attention of San Francisco. How
ever, number of sources insist that
only imported commodities will raise
in price and that food instead of being
higher, may drop in price.
There are several reasons advanced
for this. Chief among them is the fact
that California, an important factor
in feeding other states, will have east
ern markets cut off and therefore, it
will be necessary to dispose of all Cali
of course be at lower prices, owing TO
the enormous perishable supply
The price OF meat is not expected 70
raise, as there is sufficient meat here to
supply the demand for 49, least three
months. This would give ample time
for shipment of meats here from other
places by steamer.
The milk supply is one of the most
serious The Stockton district, whose
dairymen supply the major portion of
San Francisco's milk, is already ar
ranging for motor truck service to keep
the milk supply uninterrupted. The
same means of transportation between
here and Modesto will prevent butter
shortage.
orchardists Face Ruin.
Owing to the cessation Of their ship
ments east, the fruit interests of the
state face utter ruin. With their crops
ready for the market, they are unable
even to harvest the crops and thereby
suffering is being wrought upon the
thousands of people employed in fruit
picking and packing. Fruit that com
manded the highest prices in the east
will have to be dumped on the local mar
kets in competition with inferior stuff
and sell at next to nothing.
With number of former employees
and experienced hostlers and watch
men to assist the trainmen who remain,
the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, Western
Pacific and Northwestern Pacific ex-
pect to be able to continue operation
of passenger service and handle some
freight.
The Southern Pacific is chiefly con-
cerned with the operation of the trans
bay ferry system which daily handles
thousands of commuters. AS the elee
tric train crews are members of the
union, it is planned to land the ferries
at First and Broadway in Oakland, al
lowing the passengers to use the cars of
the Key Route system, which is not
affected by the strike.
The Santa Fe has been gathering men
for months in preparation for use in
case Of strike. AS a result they ex-
pect to operate practically the regular
passenger schedule west of Albuquer-
que.

MARVELS OF SCIENCE.
In Wondering at the New Ones Don't
Forget the Railroad.

The most recent mysteries Of sci
ence are the ones that receive most
attention. The air is full of talk now
adays about the thrilling wonders OF
wireless telegraph and aviation and
subterranean transportation and sub
marine navigation. And very rightly,
for these are marvels. But for that
matter so are some of the things
which we have gradually grown so
used to that we never see them at all.
There is the railroad. Plenty Of
romantic mystery is to be found in
the railroad yard Of a great terminal.
1t is, first Of all, a network Of steel
pathways which seems unthreadable.
Trains come and go by devious ways;
semaphore arms rise or fall in that
one rectangular gesture Of theirs. The

this. takes the form Of men tugging at
