COITOLUSIOITS 



From resiilts of thesa experiments the f411ov;ing 

 oonclusions may be drawn, 



1, To keep fruit in a first class condition for any 

 length of time, it is entirel^r essential that it shoiild 

 be wrapped. The wrapper is beneficial in several ways, 

 (I) The wrapper keeps the decaj'^ins: spores from passing 

 from one fruit to another, (2) Prevents severe wilting 

 (3) Retains the color of the fruit, (4) Serves as a 

 mechanical protection, 



2, From my own observation fruit wrapped in ^7axsd 

 paper will keep longer and in better condition than 

 when wrapped in any other manner, 



3, Leaves are inefficient for a fruit wrapper, 



5, It is essential that fruit should be kept in a 

 cool place after it is removed from the storage room, 



6, Fruit should not be allowed to freeze, 6.eoa.ys 

 quicker.
