THE grading rules and regulations

 are considered standard for the North- 

 west. All packs arc for the standard 

 apple box measuring lOVaxllVaxlS in- 

 side measurement. Description of all 

 packs not illustrated can be found 

 under the caption "Apple Packs." 



The method for packing all of the 

 packs not shown, with the exception of 



Diagonal 2 2 pack. 1 layers, 88 apples 



the 200 and 22,i packs, is the same as 

 dej)icted in the illustrations. 



The 200 and 225 packs are straight 

 packs, in which the apples are placed 

 straight across the box, with the rows 

 of apples resting on top of each, instead 

 of being arranged to strike the depres- 

 sions as in the diagonal pack. 



The straight pack is now used for 

 only the smallest sizes of box apples 

 that are packed. A good example of a 

 straight pack can be seen in the bottom 

 illustration on the opposite page.
