Few people realize when they sit
down to a dinner including fresh fruits
and vegetables, the great problems
confronting the producer, carrier and
jobber In packing, loading, preserving
In transit, or marketing these perish
able foodstuffs. Systems of marketing
have been SO developed that these
perishable products can be placed In
prime condition at the very door Of
the consumer Even when the snow
covers the ground In the North, people
in large cities are supplied with straw
berries and oranges from Florida,
cauliflower and lettuce from Cali
fornia, and green onions and radishes
from louisiana
While many problems have been
solved. others have been only partially
cleared away. The proper type Of
packages or containers for marketing
pcrishables comes in the latter class.
A visitor to any Wholesale district In a
large city is confronted with con-
fusing array OF baskets, boxes and
crates of every conceivable size and
shape, which may cause him to wonder
how business can be carried on under
such circumstances
Berry and Grape Baskets Standard.
The first piece Of national legisla-
ton covering containers for fruits and
vegetables applied to barrels, which
was followed by the standard con-
tainer act in 1915, standardizing berry
boxes, climax or grape baskets and
other small containers.
Now ali berries and grapes that
move across state linex are carried in
rfdard sized pack4 geA while manu-
lecturers no longer make other types
Of grape and berry Baskets. This In
sures square deal" to producer
and consumer, because the full-meas.
Are baskets mean that the producer
no longer loses on oversize containers
and the consumer gets full measure
when he buys berries and grapes.
Various states have passed laws
standardlxlng other forms Of con-
tainers. but there Is sometimes lack
of uniformity In these state laws and
confusion arises at receiving markets.
This Is especially true In the case OF
hampers in which vast amounts of
fruit and vegetables are shipped each
year from many producing sections.
Too Many Sizes Of Hampers
To eliminate much of the confusion
and modify marketing products in
hampers, the United States depart
ment of agriculture favors the stand
ardization of hampers along thret
general lines as to capacity. dimen
sions and strength.
The hamper basket is popular
shipping container, particularly in thu
eastern and southern states. Eaci
year about 3OO,OOO,000 of these baskets
of all sizes, are manufactured in abou
100 factories near the large producing
sections or in the timber areas. Som
of the larger factories turn out iron
100000 to 100000 baskets annually
and one firm is known to have an out
put Of over 100000. By the use o
machines making 800 to 800 basket
daily, the manufacturer has been abb
to increase his output greatly.

Drawbacks Of Present Method.

| Drawbacks Of Present Methods.
These hampers are now made in Il
wide range OF sizes, from eight
quarts to fifty quarts some sizes con-
talnlng even fractions of quarts With
such wide variety, 1t is difficult for
| commission dealer to know which to
order, There Is also a wide difference
in quality. Manufacturers have ca
tered to the demands of the grower
| for cheap package, and in doing so
have sacrificed strength. The shipper
| who uses flimsy' baskets Is penny
wise and pound foolish for frequent
ly he stands to lose 500 worth CT
products in. shipping when he saves
$10O In the cost of his baskets. Rail-
roads are often expected to make good
these losses in transit and are some
times called upon to pay unjust claims.
The railroads, however, have been at
fault in accepting perishables in Hight,
| fiimsy containers, and the breakage.
furthermore, Is often brought about by
unnecessary rough handling. 1t must
be remembered that in the end the
consumer has to pay for all such
losses as well as for the trouble from
SO many different kinds and sizes of
baskets.
Five Sizes Would BE Ample.
A thorough canvass by the bureau
| of markets In the various producing
sections has resulted In the conclusion
that five sizes of hampers are ample.
These sizes are the eight-quart or peck
basket; the 16-quart, or half bushel
basket; the 20-quart or five-eighths-
bushel basket; the 32-quart, or bushel
basket; and the 4S-quart or 1h-bushel
Basket. Two shapes { are recon-
mended for the last named To
detrimental both to the trade and
to the public interest. and to add to
them would mean useless and unneces-
sary packages.
BY standardizing the dimensions Of
| hampers, the purchaser will be able to
determine whether he has been sold
| a standard or non-standard basket,
simply by taking the measurements OF
the top, bottom and sides of the bas-
ket. 1t will not be necessary to call
in an inspector or to take a chance OF
the baskets being unlawful, inasmuch
as the dimensions determine the ca
pacity. Baskets of standard dimen-
sions can be loaded more easily and
snugly than can baskets of different
sizes. The Standardization OF dimen-
sions would be great boon to the
basket manufacturer, eliminating du
plication of forms and raw materials
This would tend to reduce the cost OF
manufacture.
Baskets should be standardized as
to strength, for weak, flimsy packages
win not carry to market and the re
suit Is loss of enormous amounts o.
foodstuffs and damage claims running
into millions of dollars. The question
of proper construction of hampers can
department specialists believe, best b.
left to regulation, but in law onl.
a few Of the principal elements o
: strength, such as the thickness Q
slaves, or of the bottom piece, owe
which there can be little or no dis
agreement, should be Incorporated.
