RAILROADS AGING
YEARS HUGE STRAIN
Harvesting of Fruit and Grain
Has Begun-Thousands
of Cars Re uired.
BY j. C. ROYLE.
ndenotoh xn Tvho Ga

NEW YORK, June 1.-THE rail-
road traffic Of the country is ap-
preaching its peak for the year and
a widespread call is going out for
train crews and cars, especially cars
The agricultural shipping season is
on, harvest time is here and shippers
and transportation men are sitting
in conference over the annual prob
lens of moving the fruits of the soil
in a manner that will mean profit to
both.
Thousands of cars are being col
lected on side tracks to move grain,
but the real problem is the supply of
refrigerator cars to carry fruit and
vegetables to American tables in To-
calities where these products are not
ripe or not produced.
Enormous Shipment Ahead.
c. J. Mcdonald, superintendent of
perishable freight for the Southern
Pacific, one of the heaviest handlers
of perishable products, estimates that
between $4,000 and $4,000 carloads of
deciduous fruits and between 10000
and $4,000 carloads of grapes will be
shipped eastward from California
alone this year. Cantaloupe shipments
are already moving from the Imperial
Valley at the rate of 400 carloads a
day. and the peak has not yet been
reached The total for the season is
expected to overtop 16 900 cars.
This crop, coming on the market at
a time when there is little competition
from other sections, is the largest sin
gle melon crop in the United States.
At the same time thousands of
carloads Of grapes will be moved
from California. Thousands of cars
of peaches and other fruits are com
ing from Georgia and other Southern
States, the vegetable crops of Texas
and the Southwest are moving to
market. and the berry yield is being
expedited to northern and eastern
movement will become heavier instead
of lighter.
Harvesting Already Begun.
The wheat harvest is in full swing
in the Southwest, the tree fruits are
rlpening, and must be handled eXpe-
ditiously, and the wool and live stock
movement is gaining headway.
The problem is not so much one of
loading and transportation as of get
ting back the cars for another trip.
NAIL OetuS III tHc 4>OI C6SlOIlS are
being bombarded by requests for re-
frfgerator cars. The strain upon the
roads Is shown by the fact that ship
ments of fruit and vegetables in this
country have increased approximately
80 per cent since 1918. Much of the
increase Is due to the cantaloupe and
the grape.
New Plan Discussed.
So great is the volume of fruit and
vegetable traffic that plans are re-
ported from Philadelphia for a $1,000
900 corporation to handle Pacific
Coast fruit shipments by way Of the
Panama Canal in refrigerator ships
and redistribute them by rail from
Norfolk and Philadelphia The con.

the Atlantic and Pacific Fruit Express
