Fruit Packing Demonstration.

The School of Horticulture of the
MARYLAND Agricultural College and EX
pertinent Station desires to conduct as
many demonstrations in packing apples
this fall as possible. ANY grover desirr-
ing to have a demonstration in their
orchard where an expert will be present
to show how apples should be packed
in boxes and. barrels. should commun-
icate with the School OF Horticulture,
College Park, Md,
There is no doubt that our fruit
growers should give more attention to
the proper packing of this fruit. It's in
the packing that the Western growers
-have been ahead of us, for we grow
finer fruit, but many orchardlsts have not
learned how to pack and market it prop
erly.
