FL0R|DA'S COMMAND OF THE MARKETS F.:
FRUIT UNDER ESTABLISHED BRANDS
Selected From the Crop An Excellent
Producing Section.

these two brands have come to be recognized as
representing as high grade of fruit as it is pos
sible to obtain in the State
Expert employees are required in the opera
ton of such plant as is maintained by Crutch-
field Voolfolk at Crescent City, while an equip
ment of up-to-date packing house machinery pro-
vides excellent facilities for maintaining high
standard of efficiency.
The washing, drying and polishing of the
fruit is all done by machinery specially designed
the sorting and grading also being performed au-
tomatically. This leaves only the wrapping and
packing to be done by human labor, for which
about 40 employees are needed throughout the sea-
son.
The Crescent City packing house of Crutch-
field Voolfolk ships an average of three cars of
fruit per day during the winter season, taking
crops from individual growers on consignment
and also purchasing fruit outright to be packed
and shipped for the firm itself.
Mr.. |. F. Babers, manager of the Crescent
City branch, has maintained the service of the es-
tablishment at high standard during it's opera

The various operations that must be carried
through in order to get crop of citrus fruit into
the hands of the ultimate consumers, are in large
measure in the hands of persons other than those
who originally raised the fruit. The orange grow
er produces crop, but the task of preparing it
for shipment and the marketing of the product
falls upon other shoulders than his.
The firm of Crutchfield & Voolfolk, known
far and wide throughout the State as operators in
citrus fruit, are probably responsible for large
percentage of the increased revenue to the orig
inal producer, on account of the thoroughly mod
ern and efficient methods employed in the ship
ping and marketing of the fruit crops of their pa
irons.
Maintaining packing houses all through the
citrus fruit sections of the State, one of the best
equipped and effectual establishments of the con-
Germ is located at Crescent City.
Packing house machinery of the latest and
most approved design has been installed in the
Crescent City branch and the popularity of the
service is shown by the fact that during the sea-

Two special brands of fruit are put up by
the Chase & Company packing house at Crescent

coming in rapidly and operations must be carried
on as fast as possible, about 100 employees are re-
CURED at the packing house, in spite of the fact
that modern machinery is used throughout the es-
tablishment.
Two distinct sets of packing house machinery
is used, one set for oranges and the other for
grapefruit; washers, dryers, polishers and sizers
all perform their parts in the process of prepar-
ing the golden fruit for shipment to the great
markets of the country.
