Harvesting and Storing Apples.


Practically every farmer with
small orchard on his farm, desires to
store few apples for home use dur
ing the winter.
1t is one thing to grow q good crop
Of apples and quite another thing to
properly harvest and store good
crop. There seems to be as much ig-
ing and storing as in the growing. re-
sulting In an inexcusable amount of
decay and waste Of the fruit. A few
pointers, at this time, to prevent such
waste, are worth considering.
Time to Pack Apples.
II apples are harvested too early,
they are apt to be undersized and of
poor quality. II harvested too late,
they viii not keep as long in storage
although they will be Of high color and
Of good size and quality when picked.
We do not expect winter apple to be
ripe at harvesting time. It should
be full sized, however. well colored
and it should separate readily from
the spur. II. when picking the apples.
the stems are pulled out or the spurs
broken, II Is too early to harvest that
particular variety.
Method Of Harvesting.
Apples should be handled like eggs.
Any break or rupture In the skin
caused by worms or carelessness In
handling Is the starting point for the
various rots and other forms Of decay.
No fruit harvested by shaking Of
branches or knocking the fruit on with
poles. Is worth storing. Hand picking
is absolutely essential. The fruit
should be grasped by the palm Of the
hand that no abrasion may be made
by the finger nails. BY slightly twist
Ing the fruit and bending It upward, II
should separate readily from the spur.
Apples should be placed and not
thrown or let fall into the picking bas-
ket. A careless picker will ruin more
fruit by letting 1t fall into his basket
instead Of carefully placing It there
than. his services are worth. A. great
amount of fruit IL also ruined by
pouring It from the picking basket into
barrels. II barrels are used. the bas-
ket should be inserted into the barrel
and carefully inverted that the fruit
may not be injured. It y.
The fruit should then be stored a.
soon AZ possible, Pfling the fruit In
the orchard 10 = wasteful practice. The
fruit heats in the piles and ripens
very readily. The aim in storing fruit
is to retard this ripening process that

Large Order for unadIlla sllos.

The Borden Condensed Milk Company,
one of the largest milk companies in the
United States. has placed an order with
of silos to be used on their experimental
farms throughout the country Prior to
1910 the Borden company refused milk
from cows that had been fed on ensilage,
for the reason that In almost every in
stance the ensilage was In a semi decay
ed condition when fed to the cows.
During the past year the Unadilla Silo
Company sold over 100 silos to patrons
of the Borden Company, and these silos
have proved so satisfactory that the
company took up the line of experiments
and found that the ensilage kept in these
silos was not affected as in many other
cases. The result was that they have
now plac ed a large order with the Una
dila firm for silos to be used this season
These slos are to be used on all the
Borden experimental farms throughout
the country The feature OF the Unadila
Company's silo is the continuous, air
tight, adjustable door-fron which pre-
vents decay of the ensilage
The small number of Borden milk sta =
lions in this vicinity Is attributed to the
fact that the company had refused to
take milk from patrons using silos, but
now that the Borden Company have
| themselves adopted the silo, their fac
| tories win no doubt become more com
