The percentage txf tliseases. particularly rots and scald, found, in -apples? in iftorage and on the market depends, according to the United States Depart' j nioijr of Agriculture, upon their whole j past history; that -is, upon the eondi-! t ions' under whlcl)? they were grown | and prepare d for market, the amount I of disease they shovied. when they were shipimd or 'when they went into storage, and flnoUy, upon the conditions under which they were /held, In transit or in: .storage. The percentage of disease depends to a considerable extent, also, upon the length of time the apples have been kept in storage, those stored longest being the most seriously affectodi Inspection of the commercial apple crop over a four-1 year period showed that the box crop suffered from n steady increase in percentage of disease from "October till June; the barrel crop only , from December to June. An analysis of the records of the inspection. service for 5,222 cars Inspected during the four-year period, j 191?.to 1921, is'published in Depart-, j merit Bulletin 1253,. "Diseases of Apples on the Market." Considering the inspections for* the four-year period as . ti Whole, Ulue-tnold rot occurred more commonly than any other disease. In "the box crop, scnld was second and other rots third; in the barrel crop, other rots exclusive of black rot came second and black rot come third. Summer and fall varieties showed loss dis ease, on the average, than winter or | long-storage varieties. In the JusrreU crop the percentage of disease was less in cars frotn New Vot!:. Michigan, Virginia and West Virginia than in. those from all other eastern states, considered as a whole. The percentage of disease in the box crop was slightly heavier In cars fronp Idaho than In theme from all other western slates, considered as n whole.
