yoHd that OF any other box or basket yet brought

by 1t are perfect. and being so, make the basket
of more real utility for the preservation of the
fruit than Is generally supposed by fruit growers.
At the horticultural Exhibition of the Amer
lean Institute, held at Cooper Union, last June,
a prize was offered FOR the best berry box or
basket, price and durability considered. This
premium was awarded to Beecher's Veneer
Fruit Basket. The testimony thus given is fully
sustained by the commission deAler. in our city
markets, and by all who handle fruit packed in
these baskets.

them for their good opinion, as expressed to
us in their various written Communications but
