The Importance of
Showing Fruit at Fairs

Many OF us do not realize the i'm
portance OF exhibiting fruit at the
different fairs and apple shows held
in the county and I'm some of the
densely populated sections OF the
country. Those held fl the county
have a dual purpose. First: They
create local competition among the
orchardlsts. which is a good thing.
as then each fruit grower tries to
grow better fruit than his neighbor
and I'm doing this he makes himself
more efficient in orchard manage
ment. Second: When several or
chardits in every fruit growing com
munity have become efficient in Sc
lecting fruit for loW purposes It has
much to do in advertising the local
ity when such fruit is shown both at
the local fairs and at the large east
ern fruit shows.
BY their fruits ye shall know
them can well be said Of any fruit
growing section and the more often
that fruit OF superior quality is
shown the better is that locality
known from which IL came. \ man
mag think and say that the locality
I'm which he lives is the best place on
earth but he will come nearer prov
ing his statement to the world at
large. II he can show what he can
produce. because the old adage See
ing IL believing" generally holds
good. 1t often happens that but a
few men In each community take the
pains and trouble to exhibit fruit.
thereby helping to advertise the
whole community. This working
for the other fellow should not be
expected and can Toe rrmedied hy
every one trying TO make the best IN
dividual display.
Competition grows keener as time
goes by, between the different fruit
growing states and II IL necessary
that we meet this competition, not
only on the open market but also at
the big congresses and apple shows.
In order to do this we must equip
ourselves with the best possible
means to successfully handle IL. The
best possible way To do this is TO
know how the fruit VIII be judged
and there is no better way to obtain
this knowledge than to compete for
prizes at the local fairs.
In selecting fruit for show purposes
the following points should be care
fully noted:
size tNormal 10 points
Uniformity and trueness to
type 20 points
Color - points
Texture and Flavor 20 points
Freedom from Blemi-h 70 points
For Perfection loo points
In order for the urchardists in the
vicinity OF Paouia and Others near
Delta, to become better acquainted
with the different points ON which
apples are scored, a room In the
Delta National bank building has
been secured for the purpose. 1t is
hoped that many will avail them
selves of this opportunity and when
they come to Delta that they VIII
bring specimens of different varieties
to be placed in this room Some one
Will always be present to explain the
different points on which apples are
scored.
1t should be remembered that It is
very important that the early vari-
eties OF all Kinds of fruit for show
purposes should he carefully gath
cred and sent to the above men
toned room In Delta. where they
will be taken care of for the different
fairs held In the state.-R. $. Herrick,
