Rev. SchoenfeId is home again from
California where he went to look after
his fruit ranches and other interests.
He brought with him some of the choice
specimens of fruit grown out there,
and favored his friends with taste.

turned all Edgerton loose for couple
days on his IL acre plot of orange grove
free of charge. The fruit is rotting on
the ground, not because there is not a
demand for it, but because of the kill
ing freight and express rates. The
choicest lemons may be had out there
for $500 carload, he said. A pity

atious situation. The railroads are no
longer utilities-they have become flu
tilities.
