In Milton Freewater district fruit chippers warn of a car shortage as heavy harvests push workers to midnight shifts. The Milton Freewater Fruitgrowers Union ships 16 to 20 cars daily to Nebraska, Dakota and beyond, amid rail delays and strong demand in the West. Most shipments go via O R N and interurban routes to Walla Walla for pickup by the Northern Pacific, with independent shippers faring similarly. A tight labor market for fruit pickers worsens shipment pressures.
