No questions are more frequently
asked today in the traffic world
than "What could and should the
! railroads do to handle the ship
ments of fruit and vegetables to
| the east?' With these questions
usually goes another "What are
they doing?"
| Perhaps a general review of the
| situation will aid in the considera-
tion of this tremendously import
ant, and at times, vexing problem.
In all Of the Pacific Coast states,
particularly in California, Oregon
and Washington, there is raised an
immense crop Of fruits of all kinds.
Without attempting exact stats
tics, let us say that the total pro-
duction reaches into the hundreds
of thousands of carloads annually.
The bulk of this tonnage must be
consumed outside OF the producing
territory. The principal markets
are in the thickly populated sec
tions of tho east. Necessarily,
therefore, the great bulk of the
crop must be transported thousands
of miles before it goes into con.
sumption.
Always Something Moving
There is scarcely period during
the year when fruit from one or
more of the producing sections, is
not moving in heavy volume to the
eastern markets.
Citrus fruit from Southern Cali
fornia is an all-year-round move
ment, reaching the peak during
January, February, March and
April.
Melons from the Imperial Val
ley and the San Joaquin Valley
move in great volume in June, Ju
ly and August.
Deciduous tree fruits and grapes
from central California move in
greatest volume during September
and October.
Apples from the northern states
have their peak movement in Oc-
tober and November.
The marketing of this immense
volume of business is largely done
through distributing agencies
whose function it is to insure the
best returns to growers by pre-
venting congestion its result
ant destructive competition--at
consuming centers, and to direct the
flow of the traffic in accordance
with the ever-changing market con-
ditions.
The highly perishablc nature of
the product requires specially built
equipment, and also that the bust

Mark Elaborate Dinner
By Press staff Correspondent

HOLTVILLE, April 3.-Mr. and
Mrs. J. B. Baker of this city enter
tanned at an elaborately arranged
Easter dinner party, at their home
on Sixth Street, Sunday noon, hon.
oring Mrs. Lee Smulling, whose
birthday it was.
The home was most beautifully
decorated with a profusion of gold
en- tulips. All of the rooms were
filled with masses of this symbolic
Easter flower. The dinner table
was exquisite in yellow ionquiis,
with place cards corresponding. III
the center was a large pompadour
doll arrayed in the same Easter
colorings. Places were laid for
twelve.
Before the merry affair broke up
pictures were taken of the guests
and the interior decorations. These
pictures will serve as souvenirs of
the last social function of impor-
tance that Mr.. and Mrs. Baker will
give before leaving on a tour
abroad that will take them as far
as Egypt and the Holy Land.
