ESSENTIAL TO GRADE APPLES
More Efficient System Necessary to
Create Confidence Between Buy
ers and Sellers.

The cornerstone upon which rests
the successful distribution Of the ap-
pie crop, which In 1919 reached some
100000 bushels, is grading. Were 1t
not for more or less uniform system
Of grading. which even now In many
instances Is defined only by the gen.
eral term trade practice the mar
ketlng Of this great crop would be
such complicated problem that 1t
unquestionably would be accompanied
by uncertainty and losses that would
ruin the business, say marketing spe-
ciallsts Of the bureau of markets, Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture,
But even more efficient grading
practices are necessary to create con-
fldence between sellers and buyers
and to eliminate waste. According to
these experts the chief difficulties with
present state grading laws are their
dlssimllanty and disregard Of market
practices. Three essentials to the
successful standardization of apples
and other farm products are cited:
l. There must be decided public sen
timent in favor of grading regulations.
2. The law should conform with good
commercial practice.
8. There should be proper inspec-
ton Of shipments at both shipping
point and destination.

FEED FOR TREES IMPORTANT
Yield Must Decline II Some OF Flo
ments Taken From Soil Arc Not
Returned In Some Way.

Many fruit growers do not realize
the Importance Of feeding their trees.
Every pound Of fruit sold from the
land removes just that much plant
food from It. Sooner or later the
yield must decline If this practice is
continued without some Of the ele-
ments OF which the soil Is being ex-
hausted being returned. A thorough
study of his soil will pay many a
grower who is not now getting the re-
turns In yields that he should. He
might be able to get this soil in good
condition physically, Increase Its wa
ter-holdlng capacity and then give
some Intelligent consideration to feed
ing his trees for maximum yields.
