Again, it will not do to crowd the fruit. It needs ven- 

 tilation as well as people and in order to give this we 

 must use packages that are aroaller than the barrel. In 

 ray own estimation a package that is larger than a bushel 

 box is undesirable and a half -bushel box is better. 

 Put^ermore some kind of a wrapper is essential for long 

 keeping and the waxed paper seems to be the most bene- 

 ficial. And last but not least the fruit must be re- 

 moved before it gets soft and keep in as cool place as 

 possible.
