II. French, of New York Food
Marketing Research Council,
I al;sort that New Jersey fruit and
vegetable growers would not have
! 4 chance on the New York market
if it we're not for the partial pro-
. tection against Western competi-
tion afforded by long-haul freight
costs.
Mr.. French said that the un-
! certainty of what TO expect i'll the
quality and grading of stuff
> shipped by local producers had de-
ssroyed the confidence of whole
! salers to. such an extent that when
shipment of it comes in they
: throw UP their hands and exclaim,
buyers beware" A study made of
n large number of retailers showed,
he explained, that the spoilage and
! wastage of locally produced stuff,
. though chiefly marketed in the fall,
! is s per cent greater than that of
! Western and Southern produce,
much of which is marketed largely
] In the summer
Carelessness and even deliberate
deception in the packing Of locally
grown produce made it impossible
to tell from the top of a eontainer
what Is on the bottom, or from
one contained what is in the rest
Of the cars, said Mr. French. AS a
result, he continued, such produce
cannot be sold at auction through
tlfa~ase Of samples. and commands
q much lower price than the
highly graded, carefully packed.
and trade-marked stuff from distant
points.

local growers who could command
good prices and get the treatment
accorded distant shippers. We're

brand name and great care in
making up shipments had built up
