Mutual Understanding Wanted.
As the fruit grower in the long run
is the determining factor in deciding
what method shall be used in market
ing his fruit, the auction companies
want to reach a basis of mutual under*
standing with him. in the first place,
the grower must utterly discredit the
stories that interested parties have
sprca<l through the Northwest fdneern-
i g auctions being crooked. If there
is any dishonesty practiced by an auc
tion Company, it is known at once and
that company had just as well g<) out
of business immediately. Every move
of the nurtloneer and of the buyers
is made in full view of the agents of
the growers. The auction companies
will not sell a box cf fruit unless the
growers’ representative« are in the
salesroom.
The ciiarge that auction companies
are dishbhest is a challenge to the
intelligence of the officials of tl

TRY JACKSONVILLE FIRST!
To lie successful the auctions must
be supplied systematically with large
quantities of first-class fruit.
Thè
trade must be drawn to the auctions
ta get their regular supplies. The
buyers must not have the opinion that
the fruit offered is of inferior qùàlity
and that the public salèS are used only
as a dumping ground.

discussing
the
achievements of this great age, we
shall approach the subject as the
historian chronicling events, This se
ries will endeavor to record in writ-
ing the supremacy of American men
and industries in the worlds affairs
and perptuate an appreciation of our
marvelous industrial achievements by
presenting simple facts, figures and
comparisons that are overpowering in
their convictions.
America holds her proud place
among the nations of the earth today-
on account of her supremacy in trans
portation facilities. The mighty mirds
of tlie age are engaged in the prob
lems of tr.inrportation, and tlie great
est men in the history of the world's
commerco cro at the head of the
transportation systems of I he United
States.
In the discussion of transportation,
let us consider separately our Rail
ways, Telegraph and Telephones, Ex
press. Public Highways, Steamships,
Street Hallways, Interurban and other
forms of transportation, and this ar-
tide will deal with railways.
The United States has the largest
mileage, the best service, the cheap
est rates, pays labor the highest
wages, and we have the most efficient
ly managed of the railways of the
world. They stand as a monument to
the native genius of our marvelous
builders, and most of the railroads in
foreign countries have been built
under American orders.
The railroads represent a larger in-
vestment of capital than any other
branch of human activity. The mile
age in the United States exceeds
in
the accepted distance from the earth
to tlie moon. We bad in 1911, the
last year in which figures for all
countries are available, on the
earth's surface, 639,981 miles of rail
way divided as follows: United States
241,199, Europe 207,432 and other
countries 191,350. The United States
has 38 per cent of the world’s mileage,
seven per cent of the estimated pop
ulation and about five per cent of the
area. The total capital invested In the
railways of the world is $50,000.000,-
000, divided as follows: United States
$13.000.000,000 Europe $25 650,000,000
and other countries $11.350.000,000.
Reduced to a mileage basis the cap
italization is as follows: The world
$78,000, United States $54,000, Europe
$124,060. and other countries $59.000.
A comparison of rates is equally as
Interesting and the United States
takes the lead in economy and serv
ice. The average rate per ton per
hundred mile haul is as follows:
United States 76c, Great Britain $2.53,
France $1.44, Germany $1.44, Russia
92c, Austria-Hungary $1.30, Italy $2.30
and Switzerland $2.82.
The average yearly pay of all rail
road employes In the principal coun
tries is as follows:
United States
$757, Cormany $392. Italy $345, Aus
tria $322, Great Britain $279, France
$260 and Russia $204.
About 30 per cent, or 188.000 mile«,
of the railways of the world are
government owned, About half the
railway mileage of Europe is govern-
ment ow ned.
A comparison of the economy, in
time and money and the convenience
in travel, will be made in a later
I article.
