Growers should only bring their best
fruit to market and let the small fruit
stay on the farm Good fruit is always
sure to bring a fair price but poor fruit
will not pay expenses and only tends 10
make good fruit sell lower. It is there
fore best to let all poor fruit go on the
ground. Pack the fruit carefully and
put your name on the baskets. Buyers
this year will insist on all baskets being
marked and growers will get about five
cents a basket less for their fruit if their
names are not on the baskets. If grow
ers will be careful in packing their fruit
and send only good stock to market,
there is not any reason why fair prices
will not prevail even in the face Of the
