BETTER GRADING OF
THE FRUIT OF IDAHO

The most important thing accom-
paished at the annual meeting of the
Idaho Horticultural society, held at
Payette January 8 and 10 was the
doption of the grading rules recon-
mended by the state commissioner of
agriculture according to /. Lee Truax
who returned from the meeting re-
Gently. Although the grading is not
compulsory, it is enlightening to note
that SO per cent of the men who ship
ped fruit last year asked to have
their cars inspected in the future, re-
aliZtng what it would mean to them
in selling the fruit.
Idaho potatoes, since they have
graded according to the state grading
standards have brought higher prices
than any other potatoes in the count
ry, and now we expect our graded
fruit to produce the same result"
The next meeting will be held at
Emmett. The next annual meeting
will be held at Boise in January.
The new officers elected were as
Follows: President, D. L. Ingard, Pay
cite; vice president, Earl p. Gray,
Nampa: secretary, I. Lee Truax,

where it originated It dates back
farther than the fifteenth century.
Soon again this happy day will be
here. We have been making great
preparations for it. Practically our
entire stock is now here and on dis
play.
Valentines day seems to become
little more popular each year espee-
tally with the children. The pleasure
derived by them through the giving
and receiving of these little tokens by
far exceeds their cost.
Let the children give valentines.
Our valentines are not expensive.W We
have them at lie, for sc, 2 for sc,
