COl'C' IE-NTS 



All of the pickers in this orchard v;ere considered experienced men. Each 

 person nicked by himself without supervision. Pickers 1 and 2 v;ere chiefly 

 responsible for this poor record. Note particularly the contrast betv/een pickers 

 1 and 2 compared v/ith picker 4. This reflects the importance of picl;cr attitude.
