Row an Expert New York OrchardUt Grade and Pack. Cnre In picking and handling fruit is of vital importance. Baskets should be used, but never bags. The apples after picking should be turned coreful ly from the baskets into crates holding a bushel. These should be drawn to the packing building nud carefully as sorted, graded and packed. From the craten on one side, as seen In the illus tration, the apples are assorted and graded into the pockets. The packers on the other side of the table wrap MQUT WAY TO GltADE AND PACK. The packing table Illustrated herewith Is 13 feet Ions, 4 feet wide and 2 feet J Inches high. A rack Is arratiKed in the center, as shown. It is 1 feet wide and 1 foot high. It la divided Into sections I feet 2 Inches the long way. These sec tions are lined with heavy sheeting, canvas or sacking. Each section holds 1V4 bushels of apples. Only a single grade Is placed In a pocket. The grad ing; is done by the girls on the right, as yeu look at the picture, and the packing by those on the left. and pack Into forty or fifty pound standard boxes. In packing corrugated pasteboard caps are used in the boxes and on both ends of the barrels. The Illustration of a fifty pound box of Baldwins handsomely displays the fruit. We pack three grades. The A grade Is the finest, nud every specimen Is perfect. The B grade Is of the same quality, but smaller. The O grade, which is good, but not so perfect, is packed in barrels. The balance Is evap orated. Even the skins and cores are saved and exported. Five women and three men will work tip 100 bushels of apples a day. A bushel of apples will make from five and three-quarters to seven pounds of evaporated fruit, according to the Ta riety. There should be fewer apples put into barrels and boxes and mors sent to the evaporator. The apple mar ket for eastern fruit is unsatisfactory much of the time for reason of bad packing. So much Inferior fruit is put into the barrels, and especially in the ' BALDWIN IX AS IDEAL PACKAGE. : niMilIo willi the cutis topped off with 1 good looking tipples. Unit buyers have i no coiitile:ice in the packing. They ! cannot guarantee the fruits and fix the ' price upon the poorest grade in the barrel. This dues not pay the grower. : George T.
