r- -1 rresri As When Picked Take 20,000 Bus. Maclntosh Prom New Type of St orage, Looking for a j uicy, firm, red MacIntosh appie? Durham Growers Co-op Stor- age Ltd., Newcastle, has over 20,000 bushels of these apples and will continue to have them until late June. Controlled Atmospheric Star- :age is the magie formula that keeps MacIntosh appies as fresh and firm as the day they were picked off the tree. Ordirary cold storage also keeps apples in a tree ripe con- dition but unfortunately after six months the MacIntosh ap- pies in cold storage become susceptible to core flush which is a decaying of the apple from within. * Living Organism It is known that appies when 'Piclked are living organism and they breathe by a process of union between fruit sugar and oz.- gen, giving off carbon diox- Hence to keep apples fromn niaturing and gtadually decay- ing it is necessary to keep the oxygen supply to a bare min-1 im um. This suspended animation is the theory of controlled atmos- pheric storage. The apples are kept in a cold storage roorn whîch is seaied, airtight, and lined with metal. Temperature is in the 38 to 40 degree range. Regulating the suppiy Oof oxygen in the C. A. chambers has been the chief worry of H{oward Gibson, manager of the Durhamn Co-Op Storage, dluring the past winter. By hit and miss methods. guesses com- Mon sense and constant obser-- ~FI?

Ventilation and Scrubbing If the oxygen content is ton low, air is added through an outsîde valve. On the other hand if the content is too high the oxygen is reduced through a chemicai scrubbing solution. Last week one of the two C.

The condition of the apples passed far above expectations with the rich rosy hue and delightful fiavour re- maining intact. Since the room has been op- ened it is impossible ta seal it again and the apples have been piaced in cold storage where they can be kept for an addi. tional three months without any harmfui effects. However it is doubtful that these MacIntosh will remain in starage long. 0f the 20,000 bushels only 1300 have not been spoken for and these are ex- pected to, go soon. Large Chain Stores Approximateiy 75 percent of the apples from the Newcastle Storage are sold to the large chain stores such as I.G.A., A. & P. and Loblaws. Ail the ap- pies are trucked to the vanious wholesale and retail outiets where they are packaged and marketed. When first removed from C. A. storage the appies are taste- less but given 48 hours in nor- mal air their flavour returns. Appies taken from storage wiil remain in peak condition for 121 to 14 days which gives ample time for marketing and buyin. Effects of CA.. Storage What effect wil this revolu- marketing .MacIntosh apples of tree ripe flavour and qualhty were once unheard of during the late spring . sud early sum- mer and their appearance on the market wili undoubtedly be accepted with open arms by retailers and consumers. Premiums for C.A. storage apples are running as high as $2.00 per bushel which more than makes up for the added storage cost. This is approxi- mately double the ordinary storage cost. C.A. storage is designed pri- rnarly ta spread the normal sup- Ply of appies at a normal price over a longer period of time. However marketing experts have warned growers not, to speculate on the extendedt length of storage time since a sudden flood of long storage appies would cut prices sharp. ly and a sudden post season boost to unreasonable lvel couid kili the market just as quickiy. Much Ini Demnand But the superlority of C.A. storage is rapidiy catching the attention of the buyers and Howard Gibson believed that within three years wholesalers would be demanding C.A. ap- pies by the first of March if not sooner. Thus the season for C.A. apples is being extendcd on b,*oth extremes.

Since that time it bas served the growers of Durham excep- tionally weil ai-d the addition of Controlled Atmospheric Stor- age rooms is oniy one external sign of the confidence they have in co-operative storage.- Since its opening many pro- ducts have been placed in stor- age including fruits, vegetables,' cheeses, fiowers and even dew Worms.
