Ontario 19/42. 1 ° ST RON WASSIINK • Apples have been cultivated through the centuries with each generation finding various uses of either an appetizing or superstitious nature. The apple has found its way into science, history and children's books, relating gravity, the forbidden fruit and the famed William Tell tale, The apple is a wholesome food. its crisp flesh will help clean teeth when bitten into. It is low in calories for the weight watcher, Its natural fruit sugar is also high in energy. Apples have been used as poultices, cured rheumatic eyes, and in England, the apple is said to have removed warts. The infamous apple is very much in demand during autumn months when the ripening process is completed. Tree branches touch the earth with the enormous weight of the fruit. Apple orchards are a hive of activity with ladders poked through branches and pickers gathering the harvest, Lewis Cardiff of Mait-Side Orchards, Brussels says the rush will begin next week. The orchard, covering 40 acres will see 15 apple pickers employed for the harvest, Mr. Cardiff said the public is also invited to pick their own and save approximately $1.50 per bushel. W ]n©W zen and his family• The same day, Mr. and Mrs, Walter Parnetta and Sheila visited Mrs. Alexander Gulutzen and her family, Blyth, Ont. Alexander was at work at the pipeline near Ottawa. Classified Ads pay dividends, s't ISifl Mait-Side Orchards was established ap- proximately 75 years ago, along the bank of the Maitland River. For 22 of those years, the Cardiff family, beginning with Lewis' uncle William Sratichuk, have owned the orchard. Uncle William sold the orchard to his nephew 12 years ago and decided to operate a monument business in Listowel. Lewis said his uncle went from "perishable goods to stone". EGGS TOO Mr. Cardiff says,Jike his uncle. he doesn't have all his apples in one basket. In addition to the orchard, he is an egg producer. A nearby barn contains 5,000 laying hens, features automatic feeding and wateririg sv ?ems as labour saving devices. sI he overall 1982 apple crop is up from 1981 but is not a bumper crop compared to t980. Southern Ontario orchards have been hard hit with hail with one 500 acre orchard in particular near Simcoe completely "hailed out". Mr. Cardiff estimated spy apples are down by 40 per cent from last year. Picking has already begun and will continue until mid-October. "We hope to be completed by October 25." Mr. Cardiff expects to pick 20.000 bushels from his Brussels location and an orchard near Bayfield, COLD STORAGE Once the picking is complete. most of the apples are, placed in cold storage. From September, to mid-May, the apples will be graded, washed, waxed and packaged on an automated grading line. Apples are handled with care to prevent bruising. Apple crates are submerged in vtrater and apples floated to the grader'. To serve customers efficiently, Mr. Cardiff said an outlet will soon be opened near Waterloo, across from the Kitchener -Water- loo Stockyards. "It's something new we're going to try.' The location is the former Old Waterloo Cider Mill. In addition 'to his operation, Mr. Oardiff said he plans to press apples "around September 25" for apple cider. "Presently the apples are still too tart. The end- of September is when apples start to mellow.” With the busy' season quickly approaching. Mr. Cardiff sacs he can expect to see 20 to 30 vehicles parked in his yard and the orchard dotted with people picking their own apples. Mait-Side Orchards. a landmark in Huron County deals in apples from other locations, retails, distributes and wholesales. 4-H groups like kite flying, trips to bush The ('ranbrook 1 Trail 'I'rantpers had their outing on Saturday.
