Dried Apples — Select sounil. well m;i- 

 tured fruit, p;iro, core and cut in rings. 

 String and dry near the fire. If the 

 winter apples are not keeping well it 

 is a good plan to dry or can them to 

 prevent waste. There is a time in the 

 spring before fresh fruit conie.s when 

 these apples will prove welcome. Al- 

 though there is a prejudice against 

 dried apples, they can be made very 

 palatable with a little care. 



Candied Yellow Newtowns — Candied 

 Jonathans — These two varieties were 

 found to hold their shape and retain a 

 fine flavor when candied. Pare, core 

 and cut into eighths medium sized 

 apples; drop a few at a time into a rich 

 syrup composed of two cups of sugar 

 to one-half cup of water, let sinnner 

 gently until clear, remove and place on 

 a plate to drain. Dry for a few hours 

 then I'ol! in granulated sugar; let stand 

 over night, then roll again. Repeat this 

 process until they will not absorb any 

 more sugar, then pack in tin boxes lined 

 with oiled paper. These are delicious 

 as a confection or to use in fruit cake 

 or puddings in ijlace of other fruit. 



Wagener Apple Jelly — Slice apples, 

 without lemoving cores, put into pre- 

 serving kettle with wafer enough to 

 cover. Cook gently until soft, di'ain

 and cover with paralline.

Apple buyers and consumers are demanding standardization and uniformity in the 

 grading and sizing of apples. This work is usually done by hand, costing from five to 

 fifteen cents per box. The apple industry demands economy in every phase of the 

 business. Consequently an apple grower in Hood River has invented 



The Hood River Apple Sizer 



It will reduce the labor of grading and sizing from 'iO to 30 per 

 cent after crop is in the apple house, making the little machine 



save $2.50 to $5.00 per day. 



The Hood River Apple Sizer 

 is simple in construction and 

 peration — with no complicated 

 machinery to get out of 

 order. It is small and 

 compact, occupying a 

 space of 43.,x() feet so it 

 can be used in any pack- 

 ing house, no 

 matter how 

 small. With 

 extra help it 

 has a capaci- 

 t y o f 5 

 boxes perday 

 and the cost 

 of g ra d ing 

 and sizing 

 can be done 

 for 3c per 

 box. The 

 price issolow 

 that every 

 grower, no 

 matter how small, cannot afford to be without it. .ANY CKOWEU WITH A 1,000 

 BOX CROP CAN SAVE THE COST OF THE MACHINE IN ONE YEAR.
