The work of the local office of

along the coast of
Mexico or somewhere in the West

BIG SHIPPING co.
AFTER GARBANzO
BUSINESS
GRACE & co. PLACE
AGENT in NOGALES
Will Ship Their Purchases
to Cuba via Nogales and
New Orleans.

w. R. Grace & Co. of San
Francisco and New York, one of
the biggest, if not the biggest,
of merchandise and
owners of ships in the United
States, has established an agent
in Nogales with the object of
securing as large a portion Of
the garbanzo crop as possible;
Grace & Co. propose to ship
their garbanzo purchases to
Cuba via Nogales and New
Orleans, and dispose. oft hem in
Cuba through their branch houses
in that island.
Heretofore this company has
routed their Garbanzos by water
from the west coast of Mexico
either through the Panama canal
or to San Francisco and thence
by rail to New Orleans.
But the company believes in
sending commerce by the most
direct routes possible, and las
therefore. decided to adopt the
Nogales gateway as the logical
road by which to- ship from
northwestern Mexico.
Sub-Manager E. T, Ford of
the San Francisco house is here
in Company with R. w. Shaw
who will be the local representa-
tie, and they have practically
perfected their arrangements for
the purchase of garbanzos from
this point.
One of the great advantages
which Grace & Co. have is the
fact they ship in their own bot
toms, handle the product in New
Orleans for trans-shipment
through their own house in that
city, and distribute it in Cuba
through their three branches
there thus eliminating practically
all middlemen, with their inevft-
able profits.
Mr.. Ford, who is making his
first visit to Nogales, said last
night at his room at the Bow
man:
II am certainly surprised at
what / find here. | had obtained
