SAVING OF ICE
SALVATION FOR
THEPEACH CROP

ATLANTA, GA, June 17-Confronted
with choice between sacrificing a
part of the soft drink business of the
state, or sacrificing the entire re-
mainder of the Georgia peach crop
not yet gathered and shipped to mar
ket, DR.. A. M.Soule, federal food adj
ministrator for Georgia, has decided to
save the peach crop and let the soft
drink business suffer for thirty days
1t will take $4,000 tons of ice to
handle the remainder of the peach
crop There is only $4,000 tons of ice
in storage for that purpose. To Sc
cure the balance of $4,000 tons, which
is absolutely necessary to ice the cars
in which the peaches are shipped, there
was only one course which could be
followed-to cut down the consump-
ton of ice for general purposes and
use the difference to save the peach
crop
Georgia's total peach crop this year
is valued at $12,000,000. About $4,000,
600 worth of peaches have been ship
Sped to market. This leaves a balance
of 100000 worth, including the
famous, liberia variety, which was
confronted with absolute loss unless
provision was made for icing the cars.
1t was out of the question to in
crease the output of ice in the state,
because the shortage of ammonia al
ready cut down ice production to a
minimum Amonia is an absolute es-
sential in the manufacture of ingre-
dents for explosives. The War De-
partment already is letting the ice
manufacturers have great deal more
than it was first expected would be
POSSIBLE. 1t was out of the question
to get ice from other states to save
Georgia's peach crop. Hence the Food
Administration was confronted with
the choice.
To let the general public consump-
ton of ice 60 on as usual, without a
reduction and the sacrifice the $9,O00,-
600 peach crop: or to cut down the
general public consumption of ice for
thirty days and save the. peach crop.
All ice manufacturers and ice dealers
will put aside 20 percent of their out
put and supply for iceing the peach
cars. The other 80 percent will be
delivered, first, to homes, hospitals and
places of business where perishable
food must be prevented from spelling.
then if there is any ice left, the soda
founts will get it.

BIC SHIPMENTS Of
PEACHES ARE MADE

ATLANTA, GA, June 15-Upward 0
700 cars of the famous Carmen peaches
of Georgia were shipped to market
this week, according to an estimate
given out by the Georgia Fruit Ex-
change, which handles and routes all
shipments from the famous Georgia
peach belt
The Carmens have been of fair size
and color and their shipping condi-
tions has been excellent, owing to dry
weather. They have met with strong
market from the very first the price
on the loading platforms being 81 a
crate. Added to previous shipments,
the Carmans have brought the total
movement of the different varieties
we'll above 800 cars
The Hileys will get well underway
next week The total movement of this
variety is expected to reach 900 cars
They are likewise enjoying a good
strong demand with prices on the plat
form ranging around $3.50 crate.
Much uneasiness is being felt
through the peach belt on account of
the possibility of an ice shortage.
Those in close touch with the situa-
ton state that unless special measures
of relief are taken there will be a
famine in refrigerator cars about the
beginning of the Elberts movement. The
