be overlooked in making a choice of

URGE FRUITMEN
TO PREPARE STORAGE

J. w. Buchanan of Rathdrum, dep
uty state horticultural inspector, is
gathering information ON the amount
of storage facilities for fruits, and
at the same time urging the growers
to be well equipped in this depart
ment. Mr.. Buchanan is. acting under
the following instructions from Guy
Graham, state shorticulturist:
"Ataa recent meeting of the Idaho
war council (the heads of all state
department., Twas instructed to col
lect data on the storage that would
be available this fall for the apples
I and other fruits. Indications are for
an unusually heavy crop of fruit
in Idaho. A car shortage, which is
almost sure to occur, will cause
great loss to all growers as well as
loss of valuable food products to
the nation. In order to save the
fruit crop it will be necessary for
both individuals and communities to
have some kind of temporary stor-
Fage for apples and evaporating
plants of sufficient capacity to take
care of at least portion of the soft
fruits.
81 ask that you make as thorough an
investigation as possible and report
on the capacity of storage and evap-
Grating plants that are in existance
at the present time in your district,
also prospective plants that may be
built between now and harvest time.
In communities where the crop will
be heavy and there are no facilities
for storing at least a portion of the
crop / will ask that you call the
attention of the growers to the great
loss of food products that will re-
suit in case of a severe car shortage
that is almost sure to exist. No doubt
this question will need considerable
agitation and if you think it neces-
sary so soon as the crop is assured
| will visit your section and assist
in the campaign for ample facilities
for conserving the fruit products of
the state"
