FIRST QUARTER UNLOADS - MIDWESTERN CITIES 



This summary reports unloads of fresh fruits and vegetables for the 

 cities listed below during January, February and March, 1964- Unloads 

 for the second quarter will be released in July and the third quarter 

 in October. No release will be made for October -November -December . 

 The annual summary is released as early as possible after the end of 

 the year and a fourth quarter release is not necessary. 



The 1963 annual summary for Midwestern Cities (AMS-492) outlines on 

 page 5 commodities reported and specifies those included in general 

 groupings . Factors used to convert truck and boat to rail carlot 

 equivalents are shown on page 6 of that summary. 



Two-letter symbols identify Express (EX) and Boat (BT) unloads. Rail- 

 truck (piggyback) is identified (RT) . Each trailer is counted as one 

 carload. These symbols appear adjacent to State of origin. BOAT RE- 

 CEIPTS OF IMPORTS are included with RAIL UNLOADS. 



This is a preliminary report. Final unload data for these cities will 

 be released in AMS-492 for calendar year 1964. We recommend that these 

 preliminary quarterly reports be discarded upon receipt of the annual 

 release .
