Harvesting Apples ^ 



G. N. Gordon McKeen, Gay's River, N.S. ■ 

 When harvesting apples, it is best to 

 wait until the dew of the night has dis- 

 appeared, as apples keep best when 

 picked dry. Remove them at once in 

 barrels to a cool house or shed. If not 

 to be marketed or exported at once, 

 place them in a frost -proof cellar before 

 frost comes. 



When packing for market, do so in an 

 attractive manner and pack honestly. 

 All apples in the barrel or box should be 

 equal in value and size. The proper 

 package is the bushel box, as it holds a 

 quantity convenient for family use. 

 When the box takes the place of the 

 barrel, many more apples will be used. 



Cool the fruit before shipping.
