STRAWBERRY SITUATION,
Lei Records Speak for Themselves
y A They Tell Whole Truth.
Wilmington, N. C "May 20, 1911.
Editor Morning Star: Replying to
Ihe criticisms in last Sunday, morn
ing's Star by your Roalvy Point corres
pondent, Mr. W. W. Pearsall, relative
to the estimate made by the Carolina
Fruit & Truckers' Jorunal, regarding
the movement and prospective move
ments of the strawberry crop along
the W. & W. rairioad some days ago,
would say that edme wise philosopher
has well said "fools names like their
faces are often seen in public places,"
and Mr. Pearsall has our permission
to make an ass or a fool of himself
whenever he may elect. K
As for writing articles in our office
1 believe the average man would say
that our office would be the most nat
ural place in the world in which edi
torials appearing in this paper should
be written, but the information upon
vhich our editorials regarding berry
nd' vegetable crops conditions, are
written are made directly upon the
information from the , growers them
selves, augumented oftentimes by tne
writer's personal observations and in
dividual knowledge. As a matter of
fact, there is not a ween, during tne
berry and vegetable season from the
time the Journal takes a census or
the berry acreaee in January of
each year, until the -close of the ship
ping season but what we are in direct
touch with every- strawberry and veg
etable shipping point of any impor
tance in all the trucking district.
.Now so much for this. Let us see
now what the facts bear out. It was
two weeks ago last Monday morning
that we wrote the editorial of hich Mr.
Pearsall complains, in1 which we stat
ed that hardly more than one-fourth
of the berry crop along the W. & W.
lailroad had been moved out. Up to
that time 4he figures of the railroad
lefrigerator and Express companies
showed that the W. & W. section had
shipped only 143 cars py refrigerator
and 19,446 crates by Express. Since;
that time 469 carloads have been ship
ped from the W. & W. section anci
13.554 -crates by Express. At the rate
cf 23 crates to the car the Express
shipments would total Something over
fifty-seven carloads,, which, added to
the 4C9 carloads, would' make a grand
total of 52G carloads up to and includ
ing today.
Now these figures are from the rail
cad, refrigerator and Express com
panies and are open to any one's In
cpection. It wjll thus be seen . whether
we were correct In the statement two
weeks ago that hardly more than one
ourth of the crop had been moved
along the W. & W. railroad when only
143 carloads had been shipped, or Mr.
i-'earsall, who .contended that the crop
had been moved out fully a week ago.
Despite ' his declarations, however,
that Uie crop had .been shipped, be
tween one and two hundred carloads
have gone out the past week since
he made that statement. That, how
ever, is about as near the truth as Mr.
earsall got in his article. Now mul
tiply 143 by 4 attl you have 572 xsv-
loads and the records shew that al
ready 526 carloads have been shipped
this season from)points along the W.
& W. railroad and from present ad
t Ices it is safe 40 predict that any
where from twcnty-fVve to thirty,
forty and possibly fifty cars more may
yet go out from the same section.
Much, however, depends upon whether
we have any rain within the next few
lays as stated In our previous ar
ticle.
As shown in our issue of last Jan
uary ,10th, the acreage this year in
strawberries was practically the same
as the acreage last, year, when some
thing like 1,500 to 1,600 carloads were
shipped from this territory.
The crops this season have been
uniformly cultivated on a higher plane
than during any previous year and any
reasonable man would have been just
ified in the prediction that under such
conditions the total yield this year
should have been anywhere from 1,600
to 1,800 carloads. Had the season
been favorable we hazard nothing in
the assertion that fully 1,600 carloads
of berries would have been moved
out of this territory. In this forecast
made earlier in the season Mr. H
T. Bauman, of the East Carolina
Truck & Fruit Growers' Association,
and Mr. Floyd, of the Fruit Growers'
Express, both concurred.
If the crop this season should fall
short 25 per cent, of last year that
would conform exactly to -the predic
tion in our previous article, that ucn
would be the case unless it rained
T;ithin a week. Now ,the difference
between Mr. Pearsall and the Caro
lina Fruit & Truckers' Journal is that
two weeks ago we stated that hardly
more than one-fourth ot the crop hau
toe shipped out of the W. & W. sec
tion and since that time practically
four times as many carloads have
moved from the W. & W. section as
had been shipped up to that time,
while Mr. Pearsall contends that i a
week ago the crop along the W. & W
1 ailroad had been moved out. The
record shows, however, that between
100 and 200 carloads have been inov
ed out since Mr, Pearsall said the crop
had all been shipped. We are con
tent to rest our case with the jury
and let that jury be the public
: ; In conclusion I would like to say
that in all of my writings in the Car
olina Fruit & Truckers Journal,
have never yet sougnt'to mislead any
one and vhave only contempt for the
man who would. It is otsr business
nd duty.tp give specific, information
regarding the - strawberry and, vege
'able industry and we glve.lt l-egiilar-
iv-in eason rand out,, and this in

"Billy" Goat Arrested.
Shortly after 5 o'clock yesterday af
ternoon police headquarters received
a call for the patrol wagon to be sent
to Sixth and Nixon streets. Capt.
Robt Green, the clever Hall officer,
was in the wagon in a jiffy and off
after the supposed drunk. Arriving
at the designated spot the officer fail
ed to find any one. Looking a little
further up the street he saw Patrol
man A. D. Smith and not far away
was a "Billy" goat tied to a telephone
pole. It was evident to Capt Green
that the goat had been arrested and
it would have to be taken backvln the
wagon. Sure enough, the goat had
been arrested for running at large. It
was placed in the patrol and given a
ride to the City Hall, whene it was
claimed a short time later by the own
er. Capt. Green likely thinks the lim
it has been reached.
