'Preprepacking" Aids
Apple, Pear Growers

Transparent plastic films such as
PliOflm, polyethylene, and cello
phane have already earned their
salt" in the prepackaging of fresh
fruits and vegetables, but now
some of these same transparent
films are proving their worth in
preprepackaging certain fruits. ac-
cOrding to DR.. Chester w. Hitz. as
sociate horticulturist at the Uni
versity Of Delaware.
Results Of recent studies made
by the United States Department
of Agriculture indicate that certain
sealed film box liners for fall and
winter pears and Golden Delicious
apples substantially lengthen the
cold-storage life and maintain the
quality Of these fruits.
These box liners also extend the
fruits shelf life" after removal
from refrigerated storage.
Physiological changes in pears.
generally associated with progress
sive ripening of the fruit in cold
storage, were definitely retarded by
the use of sealed film liners.
While biOchemical tests did not
always reflect the benefit of sealed
film box liners for Golden Delicious
apples, visual and taste examination
and check of weight loss of the
fruit during storage showed the
value of this packing method.
Certain precautions must be TAX
en-, however, when fruit is packed
in these liners, the study indicated.
Fruit should be free of surface
abrasiOns and potential fungi in
fectiOn, washed with an effective
fungicide, and handled carefully to
minimize bruising, as moisture con
ditions within the sealed package
are conducive to decay.

Dovid PrindiviIIe
Rites in KuIispeIl

Requiem high mass for David
Prindiville, 81, was celebrated in
Kalispell at st. Matthew's Cath
olic church Tuesday. Mr.. Prindi-
vile died July 8.
He was a brother of the late
William Prindiville, whose two
horses - Tex and Jerry, strayed
while crossing the South Fork in
10000. These two horses later
were found in starving condition
up the river, and the incident has
become the accepted version of
how Hungry Horse creek (and as
a result) Hungry Horse Dam was
named.
David Prindiville wrote the
story of how Hungry Horse" was
named. The manuscript was turned
down for print, and he contacted
the Hungry Horse News two
months after the paper was estab-
lished in 1916. Prindiville's story
with a picture of Tex and Jerry
was then presented in the Hungry
Horse News, and his version is ac-
cepted as the origin of the name.
Supplies were being freighted
from Belton up the North Fork to
the Kintla lake section for pur-
pose of drilling for oil. The horses
and loads were sent from Columbia
Falls to Bolton by boxcar. The re-
turn trip saw the horses without
loads driven back. At the South
Fork crossing on the return trip
in the winter of 10000, Tex and
Jerry, William Prindiville's lead
horses strayed. They were found in
1901 upstream in the vi
cinity of what is now Hungry
Horse Dam. The comment was to
the effect that it was an awful
Hungry Horse country. William
