Indorsements. 



Your executive board advises the use of the regular Northwestern 

 standard box in all sections, inside measurements 10^ by 11^ by 18, 

 with solid ends. We believe that we should make this the uniform 

 box as standard in all sections. Inasmuch as the laws as well as the 

 trade requirements will force us to sell our apples by numerical count, 

 we abolish the system of designating or manifesting fruit by tiers and 

 we employ the numerical system exclusively hereafter. 



The recognized and indorsed counts for the Northwestern standard 

 apple pack are as follows: 36, 45, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, 104, 112, 

 113, 125, 138, 150, 163, 175, 188, 200, 213, 225.
