Tuesday morning several thousand crates were stacked at the depots of Calhoun, AdalrsvUle. and Intermediate points, and no refrigerator cars to move them to market.

But owing to the cbndltlona this sea son with the north and south Georgia shipping periods conflicting. It has cre ated a state of affairs difficult to over come. The north Georgia grower* have met unusual hardships this year. Heavy rains have made gathering tha crop hasardous and difficult work, and caused considerable rot to appear In th* fruit.

Grow era were defenseless, because they had to have the labor. It la un derstood that many of them will ac tually lose on the season’s crop on ac count of theae adverse conditions. Oth ers will be satisfied with an even break, while a few, more fortunate, will make money.
