APPLE CROP WILL REQUIRE
CAREFUL HANDLING
Conditions Abroad VIII Make Quality
Fruit More Than Ever Necessary
In Securing Profits.
T. B. SYMONS.
Maryland Agricultural College.

There is large apple crop through
out the country this fall, but not near
~ so large as at first thought, and not
nearly so large as the 1912 crop.
Further the unusual conditions exist
ing by virtue of the war in Europe al
feet the apple market chiefly through
feeling of uneastness among the deal
ers, who have usually bought apples
for expectation or for distribution in
our markets through the winter. Yet
even if Europe does not take a single
barrel, the crop can be marketed In
this country, if judiciously handled,
with satisfaction to all
Growers should be extremely care
full to see that the apples are picked
properly. Proper picking and handling
has great value in the sale of apples.
With some varieties the trees should
be picked over two or three times. Do
not allow the fruit to remain in piles
in the orchard exposed to the sun.
Fruit should be hauled on wagons,
equipped with springs Indications are
that poor grades of fruit will bring
practically nothing on the market. 1t
also has an effect on the market of
good apples. 1t will be better to keep
this class Of fruit at home. l have
seen several growers who have sold
their good apples for a fair price.
Jonathans and Grimes at So per Dbl.
and Yorks at $3.50 and 81. Don't
III 20 bot
would bring not more than $1.25.
The Office Of Markets, U. S. Dept. of
Agriculture, makes the following sug.
gestions:
1st-That growers pick and handle
fruit in such condition as to insure it
against deterioration.
2d-That growers, associations and
operators who use the barrel as con-
tainer adopt the standard barrel, and
uniformly grade and pack the crop in
compliance with the standards of the
Sulzer Law, branding their packages
accordingly.
3rd-That all inferior grades be ELI
minated from the green fruit markets,
and diverted as far as possible, to cider
mills, canneries and evaporators.
4th-That only bookkeeping, stand
ard-packed varieties be placed in cold
storage.
5th-That special effort be made
to fully supply small towns by direct
sales, for the purpose of securing
equitable distribution and avoiding the
suggestion of large markets.
6th-That all growers, operators,
dealers and associations early recon,
Gle themselves to the conditions, and
arrive at an estimate of true values
in order to assure quick movement Of
the crop from producer to consumer.
