Foley Hotel Building v I FROM OREGON TO NEW YORK IN II DAYS, RECORD. .. rears Beach Destination In Perfect Condition With Great Baeh. , Portland, Or., Oct 'a The great, railroad systems are vying with one another to make record time on fruit shipments from the Pacific northwest. The . traffke -, department ; of the Northwestern Fruit Exchange of this city has just received work that a car load of pears shipped by the Rogue River Fruit and Produce association had reached New York in 11 days, five hours and 15 minutes. The railroads aa a rule consider that they are mak ing excellent time from the Pacific coast when they land fruit shipments in New York within 13 or 14 days. ' The carload of pears that made the record time to the New York market, arrived in perfect condition. It was of the Cornice variety and was shipped from the famous Hollywood orchards which are owned by A. C. Allen, the prominent Medford fruit man. The schedule time made for this carload beforehand was 130 hours from Umatilla to Chicago and the actual run was made in 133 hours and 15 minutes. The shipment was made by the Union Pacific and Illinois Cen tral systems. In order to move the apple crop more promptly and in far better chape than ever' before there was this season ! a complete readiustment of schedules from the Pacific coast to the eastern markets. Heretofore fruit shipments have been carried on more or less in an "experimental way and at times much loss has been shown as a result of slow movement. Since the' railroads have decided to carry the fruit products east on the same fast freight trains that nre used to transport the lesskeeping varieties from California, there has beei a no- :;bl :- "npt in the condition of the northern fruit when it reached its eastern' destination. , . .. . The condition of the pear market iif the east is rather badly mixed. There are so many different qualities of fruit offered there by the Pacific coast i.nd from eastern placer that buyers are very discriminating in their purchases. While for some of the product of the Pacific coast, the pric-1 es obtained were scarcely mor man the, freight charge with the cost of the box added, fruit sent from the RoRi'e River values under dintin .'ive brands has been sold at from two to three times what some of the others Ivve brought.
