Crop Approaches All Time Record PORTERVILLE (Tulare Dec. 22.: Unofficial estimates place the present Central California Navel orange crop at 15,500 carloads, as compared to an early season prediction of 15,000 cars'. Last, year, cars were shipped from Central California, the largest crop on record.

The Orange Administrative Committee, the prorate is operating on a 15,000 car estimate. This week, packing plants of the area are operating on a 1,500 car prorate, up 100 cars from the previous week's quota. Last -week about 1,700 cars were shipped. This week all shipments are expected to total 1,800 cars. Cars Shipped Up to December 16th, 4,469 cars had been shipped to all markets.

If shipments keep up to expectations this week and next week, the district i come to, the first the year with only a little more than half of the crop gone. Ordinarily, by the first of the crop is pretty well cleaned up. Southern California; is reported to be having the same maturity difficulty that held up the movement of fruit, nere. Estimates are for only 25 or less cars to go this week. Arizon.i may ship 60 cars.

Oranges have grown rapidly the past two weeks. The rapid growth has added size and the picking, delayed by unfavorable weather, has added another size, so the entire crop has increased about a fifth by growth of the fruit alone. The fruit is of good quality now and the markets are absorbing shipments at the ceiling price. Dos Palos Rancher Is Named Marketing Association Director HANFORD (Kings Dec. 22.
