Information for Fruit Shippers 



inloniiatioii relating to tlie provisidns oi 

 tlio Inspection and Sale Act of the Dominion 

 Government, better known as the Fruit 

 Marlis Act. is contained in bulletin No. 11, 

 recently issued by the Dairy and Cold Stcr- 

 age Ck)niinissioner, for the guidance of fruit 

 growers and shippers. The bulletin eon- 

 tains the Act with notes exi)laining each 

 separate provision. The explanations show 

 tiiat the owner of apples at the time of 

 packing is responsible for the grading and 

 n.arlceting. His name and address must 

 appear en each package. Among the ex- 

 planations given are th« following : 



Alarlis made on packages witli ordinary 

 lead pencils are not considered "indelible 

 as required lu tlie Act wliere it speciheo 

 tliat the packer must mark his name aiiU 

 the name of the variety or varieties oi 

 apples on eacii package. A stencil is tiie be.si 

 means oi coiiipiying with the law, aithougn a 

 ruuuer stamp makes a plain and indelible 

 mark if carefully used. 



Ill case no name appears on packages, the 

 gcvernnient may take proceeuing against tue 

 owner of the package rthere ascertained and 

 ouherwise against Uie party in whoso posses- 

 sion the fruit is found. 



When the name of a variety of fruit is 

 unknoivn or doubtful, shippers are at liberty 

 to sulL,stitute the word "unknown" for the 

 variety name. 



The dehniticns of grades, Fancy No. 1 and 

 .-.o. i;, uo not vary from year to year, uor 

 do tUey vary lu aiftereut proviiicei of the 

 Uoniiiuon. Xf tue quality of tfie iruit gen- 

 erally is poor, ttio only result is that a smal- 

 ler proporticn of the fruit is of the higher 

 graues. 



where the word "uniform" is used refer- 

 ring to the character of the fruit in a pack- 

 age, it IS meant to refer to the specimens 

 m each individual package. Normal sized 

 apples and very largo apples, packed m 

 tlie samo package are not considered 

 uniform. 



•blacks"' and over-pressed packages are 

 ccnsiUered as not properly packed wiieu the 

 condition IS likely to result in perniauent 

 damage during Handling or transit. Defects 

 causing material \vast<i, include abnormal 

 giowtliK, bruises, immaturity and the ef- 

 lects of fungous diseases. 



The practice at one time common, of 

 placing upon tlie barrels the name and ad- 

 dress of the apple operator, instead of the 

 name and address cf the owner of the apples 

 at the time of packing, renders the apple 

 operator liable for the package. When a 

 conviction is made upon information laid 

 ■,y a Dominion fruit inspector, the inspector 

 does not receive any part of the fine. Tlic 

 w lule tine is payable to the receiver-general. 



Ineffective Arrangement 



A. V. Main, Almonte, Ont. 



I question if we as a gardening commun- 

 ity are moving onward in the importance of 

 arrangement, effect and taste in the horticul- 

 tural regime One is more convinced of 

 this when viewing the surroundings of fall 

 fairs and the miserable appearance of many 

 towns, with we^ds and dead trees so con- 

 spicuous in the principal thoroughfares. 

 When a few excel with original arrange- 

 ment of flowers, fruit, plants and vegetables 

 at fairs and some amateurs do similar jus; ice 

 in maintaining well-kept grounds around 

 their dwellings, why does the large company 

 of Us not make amends? To make a town 

 beautiful with well balanced shade trees, 

 flower beds, lawns, etc., individual effort is 

 chiefly responsible. The individual who 

 possesses the faculty of taste in his horti- 

 cultural . pursuit is well gifted.
