For Golden Cross Bantam- sweet corn, cellophane-window,- wax- 

 impregnated, cardboard cartons holding six' ears were used. For. 

 ■Clark's Bush lima beans, two types of packages- ^ere used: -one-' 

 similar to* that, for- the corn' tests, but smaller, holding. about 

 a pound; the other, a 'vapor- tight ,' sealed freezer" package. 

 The corn remained in good marketable condition for 13 days 

 .: .when held In storage -at 32 and 35 ♦ More than- half of its * 

 original sucrose content was retained after storage at '32 for 

 13 days. The lima beans -remained in acceptable edible condition 

 . for 11 days when held in storage at 28° or 32°, and- retained 

 about two-thirdsof . their original ascorbic acid content. Ascorbic 

 acid loss was greatest during the first part of the storage period. 



The storage- quality of the products was imp-roved in all in- 

 stances by precooling in .iced ^ater.
