By Harry I. Rogers

opment of the fruit trade from
the Pacific coast through the
4 Panama canal to the Atlantic
coast and points In Europe, prac-
tically to the exclusion OF the all
lrail route, is foreshadowed in Of
ficial reports from the Canal Zone
! This trade, already consider
able in volume and expanding
rapidly. is being developed along
three different routes. Apples from
Washington and Oregon and cit
rus fruits from California are be-
ling transported through the canal
! to the Atlantic coast, northwest
ern apples and California citrus
fruits are moving to the United
Kingdom and Europe, and Chill
can fruits and vegetables are be-
ing shipped to New York.
Fresh Shipments Experimental
Shipments thus far have been
largely experimental, but they
have demonstrated beyond all
doubt that the canal route is prac-
ticable and economical. The
freight rates on experimental car
goes were in the neighborhood Of
seventy cents per hundred pounds,
compared with $1.66h by the all
rail route, and the percentage OF
decay is said to be negligible in
comparison with that experienced
In rail shipments.
With the feasibility OF the
water route proved, fruit grow
ers OF the northwest have Joined
those OF California in organiza-
tions for the marketing OF their
products and are now said to be
In a position to contract with
steamship companies for cargo or
part cargo lots. One steamship
company is said already to have
closed contract with the fruit
growers organization for $500
carloads OF perishable fruit to be
delivered In Atlantic and Gulf
ports at rates materially under
those quoted by the railroads. or
this total the Washington apple
growers agree to furnish 1000
carloads. Their plan is to ship ap-
pies to Seattle and store them, to
be loaded as refrigerator space
is available, and to encourage
this method of shipment the Sc
attle Port commission has reduced
its charge for storage OF apples
in transit from 50 to $3.50 a
ton.
Mediterranean Competition
The average time required for
shipments by the water route |
from Los Angeles to New York is
days. Direct movement
of apples from the Pacific coast
to Europe has been successfully
carried out, total OF 157 carloads
being shipped. As a result OF
these experiments heavy demand |
for steamer space for this years |
crop has already developed. Nine
steamers are now scheduled for
the Pacific coast European serv-
Ice with cold storage equipment
for handling fresh fruit through
the tropics, affording carrying

An experimental shipment of

hundred boxes of fancy lemons
