Fruit Pickers Dream Come True.

An ingenious method of gathering
fruit which reduces the fruit pickers
work to a minimum, makes use of a
large net suspended above the ground
directly under a tree and does away
with the usual fruit-picking harness,
buckets. pals and baskets, says the
Popular Science Monthly. The fruit
is dropped from the tree by the picker
and 1t falls into the net and rolls
down through a cOne-shaped canvas
spout into barrel or fruit box. The
net is held taut by framework sup
ported by iron posts driven in the
ground.
