PICKING AND MARKETING APPLES


In marketing apples there are two
great classes of trade which must be
considered. One of these supplies the
fruit stands and the family tables with
fancy. high quality dessert fruits. The
other supplies the groceries, hotels
and restaurants with cooking apples.
These two classes demand an altogeth-
er different kind of fruit with different
packages and different prices The
well informed orchardist knows these
two classes and divides his fruit into
two lots so that he may sell to advan-
tage in both markets.
For the first class he knows that he
must produce the best fruit he is able
to grow. His varieties must be those
that stand for high quality and attrac-
tive appearance such as Grimes, Jona-
than, Stayman Winesap, Mcintosh and
spy. His orchard must be cultivated
and sprayed his fruit thinned and
carefully picked and packed so that it
will reach its destination without
mark or blemish.
As carrier for this kind of fruit
the box is rapidly coming into use. It
makes a neat. attractive package of
convenient size ana adapts itself most
readily TO skillful and careful packing.
Obviously IL is not a package in whic h
one should put any second class fruit

Representative Lever, OF South Car

for the purpose of disseminating such
information concerning scientific ag.

OF the fact that the Individual farmer
may find large success and the aggre.

fruit as it is in boxed fruit, still ex
perience teaches us that it is well
worth while to exercise some pains TO
make the barrel as neat and attractive
as possible. A clean and tidy barrel
always indicates a careful packer and
presupposes good fruit and an honest
pack. The face" end of a barrel is
always opened for inspection and this
should be packed with care. If the
fruit is tender or very ripe an excel.
sior pad should first be placed in the
bottom of the barrel. Lacking this. a
corrugated paper pad is the next best
thing. If an extra fancy touch is de
slider a cheap circle of fancy, white
paper may be placed next to the cush
ion. On this lay the "facers" which
have been selected. These should be
of uniform and medium size. well col.
ored and perfect specimens. Place
them stem downwardS in concentric
circles so arranged that the last apple
viii just fill the space in the center
without having TO select an extra large
or small fruit. One large apple on the
face will spoil the looks of all the
other medium sized ones one LAYER
of "facers" is sufficient but over the
open spaces between the apples lay
others with the colored side down
ward. Thus q solid color is presented
to the eye when the barrel is opened
As the barrel is being filled il should
be well shaken at intervals to settle tht
apples into place and to prevent then
from rafting during subsequent hand

the apples on the tail" Of the barrel
