Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Packing and Marketing Fruits: How Fruits Should Be Handled to Carry to Market in Best Condition and Present Most Attractive Appearance
It is hardly necessary, however, to preface the fol lowing pages with ah explanation that they are not addressed to the men of this latter class, even though they do have the largest interest in fruit marketing. The fruit-grower continues to have his interest in the matter, too; and it is the interest of the producer that The fruit-grower has first in mind. There are two other reasons why the present author does not under take to instruct the speculators and commission men: First, they are usually quite able to take care of themselves; second, the present scribe has never studied their business from their own standpoint. It is the plain purpose of this book, therefore, to help the fruit-grower. If anything can be done to help him in disposing of his crop at a profit the purpose of this book shall have been fully satisfied.
