Marketing Fruit.

Our readers will be interested in the
| following synopsis of the lecture de
livcred by George r. Powell before the
horticultural institute in New York
state:
l. Necessity of care in marketing
In addition to intelligent and thorough
culture, special attention must be given
to the best disposition of crops. In
these times of close competition, the
successful fruit grower must be well
informed upon markets, where heavy
supplies are coming from, where to
ship to best advantage, the expenses in
shipping to different points. reliability
of commission men. their facilities for
handling and storing fruits.
2. Selection of the sales merchant
Ascertain information as to a we'll
established, reliable firm to ship to. Do
not ship to every man who sends out
letters soliciting trade and promising
prices considerably above the regular
market for many such are only side
walk statesmen with no established
place of business; they will return one
or two good sales, get a run of tfade
and then move to another street, fail
ing to make further return for fruit re-
ceived. With so many good firms of
long years of excellent reputation,
there is no excuse for losing money
through irresponsible statesmen. 1t is
better to send to only one firm in a
place, for il the fruit is uniformly fine
q trade will be established upon the
trademark. and where two or more
firms are handling the same mark diff
ferent prices are sometimes asked, ac-
cording to supply and demand, and
sometimes lower prices are taken than
where one firm has the entire handling
of a mark.
s. The grower should know the mar
grower should go to the mar
ket in which his fruit is to be sold, in
form his salesman as to what he has,
confer with him about the package
most desirable, how the fruit should be
packed and displayed. The salesman
knows what his trade demands the
grower does not: hence the grower. to
get the best pricess .lnust meet the
wishes of those who buy, and he must

jury, to certain extent, to good fruit.
Uniformity in package and in packing
Is required Understood barrels should
not be used. Fruit should be assorted
in two grades, fine and good. The
growers name should be placed on all
good fruit, but not on that which is be-
low good. A good class of men only
should be employed in the packing and
handling of fruit, for the work is of
different character from that of hand
ling potatoes. Employ by the day, not
by the job. Women are good in assert
ing and packing fruit. for they handle
not only quickly, but as rule more
carefully than men. Ship in carload

extending the season over much
longer period. 1t is better to store
pears in the city where they are to be
sold, as the customer can secure his
fruit at the time he wants it, and rent
or storage charges at 30 cents per bar
rel per month, are not more costly than
20 provide storage where the fruit is
grown.
9. Importance of co-operation-Our
fruit business needs to be placed on n
better, thoroughly organized business
basis There should be in every town
where orcharding is attempted a fruit
growers union or association, to which
every grower should belong All fruit
should be properly graded, inspected
and placed in market in the best pos
sible condition. Upon such basis, the
income to grower and handler would
be materially and permanently in
creased.
