grading of apples. the report says :
Our correspondents almost every-

prevalent this memoir. Undoubtedly
there will be more than the usual
temptation to brand as "No. 1" apples

tion of Canadian apples has suffered

a con.parativeiy few dealers and
growers, working a great hardship to
those wbo grow clear' fruit and pack
it honestly.
Special attention is drawn, there-
fore, to Section 921 (bi (111) of the In
speetian and Sats Act, Part IX., which
provides that No. 1 fruit shall "include
no culls and consist of wen grown
specimens of one variety, sound, of

and not lees than 90 per cent. free

An increased staff ot fruit inspectors
will be on duty this season both at
shipping points and at the points of
distribution, and every provision is
being made to examine as large a quan-
tity of isuit a. possible. Fruit tor
local markets must conform to the
law as well as that for export.
