Questions
Answered B)
State College
(Question: How should apple-
lie graded?
Answer: The first step corne
al harvest time. It has been esti-
iiintnd that one-sixth of the ap
ples discarded as culls were dis
posed of liecause of rough hand
ling at picking time, or rough
ireiitinent on their way to and in
the grading and packing shed. A
Ihofoiign knowledge of V. S
Siaiui ird grade.s is also necessarv
ill cliissitying apples. Then. loo.
the fruit must l.^e free from spray
re-idue. dirt, or any defects that
will sorionsly detract from Hie
appeaiaiice or keeping finality o!
the fruit.
