Greater Care on Part Of Shippers

The department of agriculture and the
railroads are endeavoring to educate
shippers to the necessity for proper
spacing, arrangement, and bracing Of
loads in cars to prevent injury in tran

Shipments of carefully graded pro-

hampers have been received at market

repacked before they could be sold,
many hampers being so broken that
the loss of fruit was great. All this
because the hampers were not prop

Even when loads are braced prop
erly and arrive intact, inattention to
requirements of refrigeration and ven-
tilation often results in great losses
through mold and decay. Efficient
loading of perishables prohibits put

such losses. The limit of safety must

We are at the crisis of the war; at

German troops. Our army has been
forced to retire. The retirement has
been carried out methodically before the

enormous losses.

splendid courage and resolution. The

moment checked the ceaseless onrush
tof the enemy, and the French have now
Joined in the struggle. But this battle
the greatest and most momentous in tht
