SELECTING AND PREPARING
FRUIT FOR EXHIBITION

The time for the holding of the
various fairs, now approaching and
the growers who intend placing ex-
hibits of fruit should be making
preparations now and not wait until
the last minute to select their speci-
mems
No matter how small or how large
an acreage a grower has one stands
as good a chance as the other to win
priza provided. OF course. that he
take the proper care in selecting and
preparing the specimens.
The growers ability to pick good
specimens, will determine how good
an exhibit he can produce. Selec-
tiol can best be made by viewing the
fruit as It hangs on the tree. At
this tine the grower can assist in de
vrIoping the specimens desired by
proper thinning and perhaps by train
ing the branches somewhat so as to
allow plenty OF sunlight to reach the
fruit However this can be over
done to the extent that the fruit will
sun zcald. Ordinarily the best fruit
for show purposes will be found near
the TOP of the tree or on the outer
most branches
The grower should acQuaint him
aa' with the score card 10 be used
and select the fruit accordingly How
aFr- in general the fruit is scored by
fn. ollowinG factors: Freedom
from blemish, 2-Uniformity Of in
drdual specimens. 3-Characteristic
-a and shape for the variety
H.ek a specimen meeting the above
rgauirements and then select the bal
area OF the exhibit to match the first
specimen. Select a few extra to al
low FOR accidents.
rick the following with stems on,
Anple. pear, ounce. plum and cher
n.y. Pick without stems Peaches, ap-
r.e0fs and nectarines.
For the stone fruits cold storage
viii be necessary in most cases, but
APPLES and pears carefully wrapped
and put up in small packages will
keep well in a good cool cellar.
u is important that the correct num-
hor Of specimens be placed on each
plate. This will vary with the vari-
ous fairs For the larger fruits,
such as the apple pear ounce and
peach. five specimans are generally
required: while in case of the smaller
fruits. such as plums. from ten TO
twenty specimens are needed on each
plate. Five lunches OF grapes may
also constitute single plate exhibit.
When exhibited In containers such as
boxes, baskets. or other receptacles
the same careful attention should be
given to its appearance and arrange
ment. Packed fruit should conform
TO the standard rules for packing,
grading and quality. Care should be
taken TO see that the varieties are pro
pcrly named
Finally see that all specimens In
one exhibit are uniform as to size,
color and form. These should be
characteristic of the variety. over
size fruit will not win against fruit
which is nearer the average size OF
any particular variety-Fcrris NJ.
