Cold Storage of Fruit. — This has received special attention in New Zealand and 

 forms the subject of an article in the Netv Zealand Journal of Agriculture for January, 

 1920, Vol. XX, No. 1. Advice is given on -the stage of ripeness at which the various 

 varieties of apples and pears are to be picked, also a summary of findings resulting from 

 variftus tests to which the fruit was subjected at different i)eriods of storage. In addition, 

 tests made of the results of careless and careful handling, respectively, emphasized the great 

 importance of placing the fruit in storage in the best possible condition promptly after 

 picking. In regard to wrapping, apples were found to l)e of better general appearance if 

 wrapped before cold storage, but it made little difference to pears. The results of the 

 experiments demonstrate the important part of the orchardist in the ultimate success of the 

 cold storage of fruit.
