(3) If any one
				diameter fails maturity, the applicant shall declare to the inspector all

(3) While only one test is required on each
				diameter or grade of fruit that passes, the running of additional tests is not
				prohibited if, in the opinion of the inspector, additional tests may be
				necessary to prevent the shipment of immature fruit.
(4) The juice extracted from fruit in making
