Tut First Car Load. The Oregon
Frui. and Produce Co. sent out their
first car load of fruit last night from Al
bany. It consisted of 276 boxes of pears
and 400 crates of prunes. This fruit has
to be packed right in orJer to command
the. best price, and this is being done. A
good price will be a great etimulous to
tbe industrr in this county. The Jour
nal says: James Kyle, mauager of the
'regou Frmt and Produce Co., went U
Albany to start the first cars east. His
company is employing fifteen bands
packing at Albany. Nineteen pactera,
and about twenty other hands are work
ing at tbe Salem warehouse. Tbe mark
et continues good but all loosely or poorly
packed fruit goes at sacrifice price. Mr.
Kyle has been the recipient of numerous
letters recently from various sections of
the suite ageing the reason whv his irnit
is selling at such favorable prices. The
oily reply Mr. Kyle makes is that he al
lows nothing to be shipped but that
ich is packed exactly as tbe fro t is
packed in California.
