In short, the coâ€"operaâ€" tive system of handling the apple crop, under proper management, assures the consumer of a better product, and realizâ€" es to the grower a greater profit.â€"Press ‘ un s Cgut 14 eC ‘ C CEST TETTCCD Lt d 14 L imec 3t 154 : bulletin from the abntariorAgricultura] College, Guelph, Canada. l It is in this particular that there is the greatest need for improvement at the present time. _ There are hundreds of apple growers who can grow firstâ€" class fruit to every one who can place it on the market, when and where it will bring the best price. The growers who mak» the most out of their apples are those who keep in touch with the best markets at home and abroad. During the shipping season these men watch the market reports daily, and unless prices are satisfactory they hold their fruit unâ€" til good prices prevail. The great maâ€" jority, however, of those who kave apâ€" ples to sell wait for some buyer _ to come along and sell for whatever he chooses to offer, usually from fifty cents to a dollar a barrel, or a lump sum for the crop on the trees. The latter plan is nothing less than gambling in apples, and in either case the owner seldom gets oneâ€"balf what his fruit is really worth, if it were properly handled. The remedy for this state of affairs, and what is going to put the _ apple trade on a better business basis, is for the growers in each apple growing seeâ€" tion to unite and form a coâ€"operative association, through which the grading, g:cking and marketing of the fruit may accomplished. During the past year a number of these associations have been formed in various parts of the Province, and the prices obtained by some of them for last year‘s apples have made the growers enâ€" ehusiastic over this method of handling the crop. An effective coâ€"operative association for this purpose involves the selection of THE LOGGER‘3 VOCABULARY (By Prof. H. L. Hutt.)
