they were the parents of the
baby and said they had been
afraid to take it home. Both
are young people, the man
about % years of age and the
woman 10.
Those who have investigated

THE BUSINESS
FARMERS CORNER
MARKETING FRUIT
BY EDWARD X. PARKINSON,
Expert Agriculturist.

There are four ways of disposing of
orchard products selling the fruit on
the trees to a buyer. who comes to the
orchard and makes a lump sum offer
selling through a commission merchant
selling through fruit growers associa-
tion or selling to the consumer direct.
The first method involves the least
trouble, but the seller receives the low
est price, as the buyer has not only the
work OF picking, etc, but must sell the
fruit to middleman. Moreover, buyers
will not, as a rule. contract for small
orchards, the expense of bringing men,
etc, being too great. However, if the
owner has an orchard OF several acres
and is unable to superintend the work
himself, selling in this way is both prac-
teal and profitable.
Selling through a commission mer-
chant is often very satisfactory, partic-
ularly if the orchard is not near any
market, and If care is taken to look up
the merchants financial standing, for
the commission man naturally does his
best to sell to advantage. In selling in
this way. write or telegraph the mer-
chant before shipping, that he may be
prepared to receive and dispose OF the
fruit at once.
To sell through fruit growers asso-
citation one must become a member, and
this may be done by writing to the state
department of agriculture for the names
of the associations in the state and their
financial standing; also by writing to
the secretary and applying for member
ship. These societies undertake to sell
the fruit of their members in the best
markets. In fact, it is not unusual for
fruit growers associations to take
charge OF crop from the time it be-
comes ripe, picking packing and selling
the same, the grower simply eashing
the check he receives as the result of
his years work.
Selling to the consumer direct is an
excellent method of disposing of ones
produce in more ways than one if the
farm happens to be near town or city.
In the first place, better prices are OBJ
tanned for the fruit, and not infrequently
market is opened for eggs, poultry,
potatoes or anything delectable one may
choose to raise. There is also the inter-
est of personal contact and the change
of the town sights and sounds, which,
to country dweller who doesn't hive
among them, is often an agreeable diver
sion. However, to sell crop of apples
by the bushel or quart, for instance,
storage building of suf1i-
Gent capacity to hold the entire output,
so that one may keep a crop for the
best prices Such building need not be
an expensive affair, but it must be
frost proof.
