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.
