On the subject Of keeping apples Mr.
o. w. Hawden of Worcester, Mass,
in a recent address said: If apples
are expected to keep we'll they must be
picked from the trees and handled
carefully Barrels and boxes are
found the most convenient packages
for apples. but should be washed and
thoroughly cleansed and dried before
using: care should be taken that no
nails protrude through the slaves.
The fruit should be carefully placed
in the barrels and gently shaken and
pressed into them as compactly as pos
sible to prevent any motion of the fruit
after the barrels are headed: each sort
should be marked and placed where
the temperature is low and uniform
if possible. If apples are to be stored
fer winter or late keeping the sooner
placed in a cool and uniform place the
better. a fruit house or cellar made
with a view for the purpose is best,
but most growers usually have to re-
sort to their cellars. The chief re-
Quisites for the preservation of fruit
from October to May or June follow
ing are a uniform low temperature.
which in autumn may be obtained by
giving abundant ventilation on cool
nights to be closed when the atmos-
phere is warm. Fruit should be
maintained or kept in as nearly as
possible its condition when gathered.
The gradual ripening process, or the
fermentation Of the juices premonitory
to decay should be checked and kept
in dormant condition. When main
tanned nearly at freezing point the
melloWing or ripening process in the
fruit nearly ceases. Fungi and mil
dew. the primary causes of decay. do
not terminate under these circumstan-
ces; the best late keeping results are
promoted thereby. The prices at
which apples are sold differ very ma
terially between October and June
ard are often as one to five: thus the
growing price in the cellar is of fully
as much Importance as the growing
fruit in the orchard
