Regular Sailings 



The imiprovement in the regularity of steam- 

 ship sailings from Montreal means much to fruit 

 exporters. There was a time when specific 

 sailings from Montreal could not be depended 

 on, but in recent years faster and better vessels 

 have been brought to the port, so that now it is 

 a rare thing for a ship to miss her sailing date. 



Some apple exporters are apt to overlook this 

 very important feature of the St. Lawrence 

 route, but a glance over the history of the past 

 two or three years will convince shippers that 

 the regularity of the Montreal sailings is wor- 

 thy of their attention. The Rolbert Reford 

 Company very early saw the necessity of regu- 

 lar sailings and worked hard to have such a 

 service. The result now is a regular weekly 

 service to Glasgow and London by ships fitted 

 up with cold storage refrigerators and cool air 

 chamtaeis. See advertisement below.
