are so constructed that they may be ex- 

 posed to a sweep of outside air when 

 the outdoor temperature will permit. 



The rate of scald development is 

 greatly influenced by temperature. Be- 

 tween 60 and 32 degrees, each drop of 

 10 degrees results in a delay of from 

 three to six weeks in the time of the 

 appearance of the disease. The opti- 

 mum temperature for its occurrence is 

 60 degrees or slightly above. Temper- 

 atures of 75 and 85 degrees have pre- 

 vented the development of the disease, 

 but of course cannot be used as storage

"Here's a Friendly Tip 



says the Good Jiidge 



Men who know tobacco, 

 chew the best without its 

 costing them any more. 

 They take a little chew and 

 it's amazing how the good 

 taste stays in a rich, high 

 grade chewing tobacco. 



For lasting tobacco satis- 

 faction, there's nothing 

 like a small chew of that 

 rich-tasting tobacco.

temperatures. High humidities tend to 

 increase scald, but the disease does 

 not occur in saturated air that is kept 

 stirred and does occur in dry stagnant 

 air. The disease is not due to accumu- 

 lation of carbon dioxide, this gas tend- 

 ing to decrease rather than increase the 

 trouble. 



Without going into any involved 

 technical discussion of the manner in 

 which scald develops, it may be said 

 that the disease results from the action 

 of accumulated respiration products, 

 which in the absence of good ventila- 

 tion are held in close contact with the 

 skin of the apple, preventing normal 

 respiration of the fruit and probably 

 exercising as well a direct toxic effect 

 on the skin. This action is a slowly 

 cumulative one, which explains why 

 apples do not scald until after they 

 have undergone a period of storage and 

 prolonged exposure to the gradually 

 accumulating respiration gases. To 

 provide a long storage life for our ap- 

 ples we must unquestionably hold them 

 at as low a temperature as possible, but 

 to secure their ultimate freedom from 

 scald and their ultimate marketable 

 condition we must at the same time 

 provide good ventilation for the storage 

 rooms. We may summarize scald pre- 

 vention measures, then, as follows: 



(1) Pick M'hen Mature: 



Pick when the ground color begins to lighten. 

 Make more than one picking when practicable. 



(2) Keep Cool: 



In the Orchard — Keep the picked apples as 

 cool as possible. Low temperatures are desir- 

 able, but all cooling is valuable. Keep the 

 apples in the shade. 



In Storage — Get apples to cold storage or air- 

 cooled storage as soon as possible after pick- 

 ing. Use open crates — they cool more quickly 

 than tight ones. 



In Transit — Precool the fruit and ship in 

 iced refrigerator cars if the weather is warm. 

 (31 Venlilale: 



In the Orchard — In case of delay keep the 

 fruit in open crates. Do not hold in large 

 close piles. Give packing sheds and temporary 

 storehouses plenty of air, especially night air. 



In Storage — Hold in open crates if practicable, 

 and stack to permit air circulation. Apples 

 scald less in well ventilated cellars and air- 

 cooled storage houses than in unventilated com- 

 mercial cold storage plants, but the higher 

 temperatures of the former are, of course, 

 undesirable. 



In Transit — Give the apples as much air as 

 practicable. If the weather is cool ship "under 

 ventilation." Delay of poorly cooled fruit in 

 tight cars greatly increases scald and causes 

 heavy losses. 



The reputation and the sale of the 

 Northwestern apple is based primarily 

 upon its attractive appearance and its 

 keeping quality, points which are vitally 

 affected by storage diseases. There 

 should therefore be intelligent attention 

 devoted to these problems by all con- 

 cerned with the growing and handling 

 of apples.
