BETTER FRUIT 



April 



Ogburn's Fruit Gathering Vessels 



THE LATEST INVENTION 



EXHIBIT NATIONAL APPLE SHOW, SPOKANE, WASHINGTON 

 NOVEMBER 14 TO 19, 1910, WHERE IT TOOK 

 FIRST PRIZE AND GOLD MEDAL 



Saves money by preventing bruising fruit in han- 

 dling from tree to box. Saves time by leaving both 

 hands free to gather with, and being quick to operate. 

 Money saved is money made. 



Especially designed for apples, pears, peaches, 

 oranges, lemons and tomatoes. 



Can be used to great advantage in gathering cher- 

 ries, plums, prunes and grapes. In handling small 

 fruits, place a piece of wrapping paper in the bottom. 

 The canvas bottom slides from underneath the paper 

 and delivers the fruit on your packing table without 

 the slightest injury. 



This vessel is an oblong metal pail larger at the 

 bottom than top, equipped with canvas bottom which 

 slides from underneath the fruit, simply laying it on 

 the bottom of the box or where desired, without dis- 

 turbing the fruit, the bell-shaped pail lifting of¥ without 

 injuring the fruit at all. 



The vessel holds one-half bushel or half box of 

 apples, and in emptying the second time the canvas 

 bottom eases the fruit in the vessel on that in the box 

 without bruising or scratching, which is practically 

 impossible with the wood or metal bottom pail. 



A Number of these 

 Vessels Given
