"Harvested fruit had to be marketed and shipped, so shipping depots were opened at the railroad station during the season by San Francisco firms. Ellsworth and Co. were the big shippers and handled most of the cherries. Several new canneries were reported ready for the 1891 season. When prices were down or the crops were poor, farmers were prepared to dry the fruit. William Mortimer shipped a special train of 10 cars of dried fruits and nuts from Niles to Chicago in 1891. This was a new and bold venture that opened up new marketing possibilities."</ref>.
