APPLE BOX SHORTAGE
FORMS A WORRY

With Northwestern lumber interests
busy getting out shipbuilding material
and other supplies demanded by war
conditions, local apple growers face a
shortage of boxes for the handling of
the 1917 crop of fruit. One local box
factory, figuring materially on past
seasons in furnishing Upper Valley
and Odell district growers with their
boxes, is not operating this year.
Another large milling concern, which
last season furnished the local growers
with $50, 900 boxes, has announced that
its maximum supply for this season
will not exceed 100000.
The Apple Growers Association
board of directors has given Manager
Stone authority to operate the Belmot
plant of the Stanley-Smith Lumber
Co. in the manufacture of boxes.
