boxes and they all use our standard
box, which as far as we could learn
is the only one made by the manu-
facturers of apple packages in the
East.
This is all very encouraging but we
must be watchful lest the idea of
making an apple box one-third OF the
barrel that has been standardized in
the East should be adopted. The
barrel, as I have repeatedly stated in
these pages, should never be made
the unit of measure. We must say to
our Eastern friends GAS you have
agreed to let us settle the box ques-
tion among ourselves and that brought
peace, now keep the peace. - We
have always been utterly opposed to
making the barrel the unit Of measure
for apples and the box or bushel a
sub multiple of the barrel and we will
always be opposed to any such move.

from the air through the openings in
the leaves. That one half is carbon.
When plants are dried out so that no
water is left in them, it is found that
one half of their weight is carbon.
We do not have to give any concern
about the carbon that growing plant
needs except to see that the leaves
are in a healthy condition. A wise
arrangement OF Divine Providence is
quite sufficient to furnish all the
carbon needed. The three elements
of fertility that come from the air
through the soil are nitrogen, hydro
gen and oxygen. They must pass
through the soil and enter plants
through the roots. A very little oxy
gen may enter the plants through the
leaves, but most of what enters that
way is Immediately expelled. Some
arbon also enters the plant through
the roots but the chief supply mnst
be through the leaves. Percival in
his work entitled Agricultural
Botany says on page 207: 1.-The

GRADING FRUIT.

From a communication which re-
Gently appeared in the Fruit Trade
Journal of New York it appears that
the Yakima Valley Fruit Growers
Association is planning to make some
important changes in grading fruit
and especially apples. A committee
that has had this matter under con-
sideration reports as follows: sin
the past the rule has been that the
lower the grade the smaller the apples
admitted. Hereafter the association
will permit smaller apples in the ex-
ira fancy than in the fancy, and
smaller in the fancy than in the
choice. No count greater than 163
will be permitted in the latter. In

ORCHARD FERTILIZERS.

The need of fertile soil in order
to the successful growing of any kind
of crop is we'll understood by most
farmers and fruit growers. 1t is true
that 81 per cent of the fertility used
in all vegetable growth comes from
the air, but nearly one-half of this
must come through the soil before it
can reach the plants in order to assist
their growth. Half of the dry matter
in all vegetable growths come directly

fact do not often do so. Why this
difference? The answer to this
question is the apples that went to
New York were packed by an expert.
So when we fail it is not because we
have not the high grade fruit but be-
cause we do not properly pack our
fruit. We do not claim that Yakima
fruit is superior to that grown in
other sections but we do claim that it
is equal to any other and that we
suffer because of bad packing.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-06-15

It's will be permitted, excepting in
the case of Winesaps or Missouri
Pippins which shall be accepted up to
and including 200; while 225 Winesaps
or Missouri Pippins can be packed
for extra fancy; sizes of other vari-
cites smaller than 200 to the box to
be excluded"
General Manager j. I'll. Robbins is
reported to have said "that it was the
opinion of the committee that no
small apple should be marketed as
commercial variety unless it was fully
developed, highly colored and practi-
/, cally perfect in shape, and that small
apples of imperfect shape, green and
not we'll developed should not be
packed at all, but should be sold for
cider or fed to the hogs To this,
every we'll informed fruit grower can
give his unqualified endorsement.
The sub committee recommended
that instead of calling the grades ex-
ira fancy, fancy and choice that they
be defined Nos. 1, 2 and 3, but it is
quite likely that this recommendation
will not be adopted. In the grade
designated choice, or G. grade, the
sub committee recommended: "This
grade shall be made up of all mer
charitable apples not included in Nos.
l and grades. These apples must
be free from all insect pests, worm.
holes and scale, but will include mis-
shapen apples or those having a limb
rub or other like defects. Apples of
this grade may also contain two worm
stings, perfectly healed over without
indentation and not exceeding one
sixteenth inch in diameter or may
show slight bruises. Each apple must
be wrapped" The other grades must
, conform to the following rules: "The
extra fancy grade is to consist of we'll
formed apples only, free from all de-
fects; all red varieties must have Is
per cent of good color; Ben Davis,
Rome Beauty, Baldwin, WAGNER and
all other varieties of similar color
must show a red color of so per cent;
Red Cheek Pippins and Winter
Bananas must show a red cheek. The
only deviation from the above as to
the fancy grade is that slight limb
rub or defects not exceeding one
fourth inch in diameter will be per-
mitted, while all red apples must
show % per cent color. " In packing
peaches the following suggestions are
made: 'ln the grading of peaches it
is provided that none less than two
inches in diameter shall be packed
for shipment and two and one fourth
inches is the minimum fixed for
Elbertas. No over-ripe, under sized,
immature, misshapen, diseased,
wormy or otherwise defective fruit
packed except that overripes and
understood may be packed for special
purposes provided the boxes are
plainly so marked"
1t is we'll for fruit growers, whether
in the Yakima valley or in any other
fruit growing sections, to give careful
attention to what has been recon-
mended in these quotations. The
