There is growing sentiment, both
among apple growers and dealers, in
favor of standard apple-grading laws,
say specialists of the bureau of mar
kets, United States department of agri-
culture. The objects, they say, to be
attained by such laws are: Elimina-
ton of fraud and deception, preven-
ton of waste, establishing a basis for
trading, creation and maintenance of
confidence, sterilization of the market,
and encouragement of better methods
OF production and handling.
The first definite attempt toward Sc
curing the passage of q national apple
grade law was initiated in 1907 by a
number of prominent growers, ship
pers, and dealers, who were instru-
mental, after working on the problem
for several years, in getting the Sulzer
bill enacted in congress. This bill be-
came a law in August, 1912, when it
was signed by the president. to take
effect July 1, 1918. Although this law
was not mandatory, it served a valua-
BILE purpose in awakening and crystal
liZing public sentiment throughout the
country fayoring the enactment of leg
islation which would serve to stabilize
the barrelapple industry by elimlnat-
ing fraudulent and deceptive packing
and by establishing a uniform basis for
buying and selling.
BarreIed Apple Grade Laws.
,rhe first state mandatory apple
grade law was passed in Maine in 1913.
The following year New York passed a
similar law covering barreled apples,
which is still in effect in an amended
form. This was followed by similar
Legislation in Massachusetts, Vermont,
New Hampshire, Connecticut, Della
ware, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan,
Pennsylvania. West Virginia and Wis
cOnsin-a total of 10 states.
The state laws have not been wholly
successful in obtaining the desired re-
suits, because the requirements in some
cases have not been practical and be-
cause the extent to which they have
been enforced in some states has varied
so greatly that in many instances the
grade terms have come to have little
value. However, they have done much
good. In spite of the objections men
toned, a state law that is practical in
its specifications and intelligently en-
forced will carry with it many advan-
tages.

have conducted Investigations in all

Wednesday for the benefit Of st Ma

proved a most successful and enjOya-
BILE affair. There was a large gather
ing OF people in attendance from prac-
tically every section OF the county, and
an afternoon and evening of thorough
enjoyment was spent by all present.
The big feature of the afternoon was
the base ball game between the old
base ball teams of La Plata and Bry-
antown, the veterans of the sport some
years ago, when game between these
two teams created more excitement
and interest than perhaps any thing
else in the county. Bryantown out
played their old rivals from every
standpoint and won the game by the
score OF Is too.
Dancing was the feature of the even
ing. The large attendance was a dis
tinct tribute to Father Conroy who, by
his couteousness, energy and progress
siveness, has made himself one of the
most popular priests in the county.
We congratulate him and his corps OF
assistants upon the successful man
agenent of the affair, which was re-
sponsible for making it so enjoyable.
