In m cases the consumer, purchasing ons one or two rutabagas, did nut hav the opportunity to examine the dis tinguishing marks on the bags and therefore, had no check on the clan] ity purchased. Marketing of branded. rutabaga commenced last November when a chain of retail stores agreed to ac rept a trial shipment. Since that time this particular chain has report- ed an encouraging increase in the sale of rutabagas and other retail or- ganizations are now • hanling this graded product, One group of retail i stares is now selling branded rata bagas at the rate of approximately ,250 bushels a week, it is reported. In addition to this, experimental shipments have been sent to the New York City markets, and reports -have been very satisfactory. Within the past few weeks; Ontario branded rut- abagas have been tried in a Montreal chain of stores. That the quality was found satisfactory, is proved by the fact that another carload of the branded rutabagas /eft Ontario for(I 'Montreal last week. "The fanner who is supplying this special trade," Mr. Carroll said, "is receiving a premium of approximately 40 per cent. at the shipping point. I wish to point out particularly," he went on, "that this does not represent the premium which would be paid the grower, if all of his product was of a quality sufficiently high to make the branded d d trade.
