the barn had a narrow espeee from

it. Snore straw had got tangled in

it on fire. Quick as a flash one

says: "We are in receipt of a letter

the !quality of apples shipped to them
by packers teem this district. - We
have also received a sample of the
apples, and. Must say that we.are as-
toniehed that swat stuff should be
eeati out from Wingbana. under the
'name of first-class or evea third-
class fruit. This kind of work on
the parr of local -shippers, if contin-
ued, an only result in giving our
apples an unenviable reputation in
the ;community- to which they are
sent, and in ultimately destroying
the market for fruit in tbis section.
Tins is not the first tin io the „same
firm have had. grounds for -complaint
segarding the very inferior qaality
