BETTER MARKETS FOR PACIFIC COAST FRUIT Trade reports at the close of the year from London say our English cousins have been im porting smaller quantities of fresh fruits from America. “ But the fruit firms at Covent Garden predict a great improvement with the opening of the Panama canal.” This is equivalent to saying that with proper service, including ample refrigerator space, there are good reasons to believe once the Panama canal is in operation, enormous quanti ties of our splendid fruits from California, Oregon and Washing ton may be loaded into vessels and shipped by cheap ocean freight via that short route di rect to London. This will save the 3000 miles of rail travel and expensive refrigerator car ser vice between the Pacific coast and New York or Boston. Hor ticultural interests of the Pacific west should be making their plans this winter to capture this business. Local Firm Issues Catalogue. Mrs. W. S.

The Difference In Icebergs. No two icebergs « 1 )pear to be exactly alike in size and shape. Some look for all the world like Arabs' tents as they glide along and others like clllTs. castles, cathedrals, yachts, and occa sionally they resemble some well known animal. Some of the pinnacles of a large berg rise nearly a thousand feet above the water, while the base may occupy an area o f teu or twelve acres. Seen through a powerful glass, one may detect waterfalls upon these islands o f ice and all kinds o f arctic birds and perhaps a few seals. Then the colors nre almost beyoud descrip tion. The stately pinnacles glisten In the sun like powdered glass. At times the berg Is pure white; nt others it looks greenish.—Harold J. Shepstone in St. Nicholas. G r e a t T onic.
