Satisfactory Basket for Potatoes. sufficiently strong. This. Is especially true when containers are used more than once. Shipping containers should be light In weight but sufficiently dur able to oarryy the prisluce. Size. The alee of a container de pends upon the desires of the custom ers. Most persons wish to obtain small quantities of each product at a time. Containers should he Just large enough for the produce shipped. If the carton la too large or too small, both the produce and the container are likely to he damaged, for the produce will not he kept In place and the container will be crushed. The larger the quan tity of produce shipped In one parcel the lswsr will he the cost per pound for transportation and tba lower the container cost per pound. Appaaranoe. A . contaluer should present an attractive appearance, both on arrival and when, opened, and should show the produce to advantage. Of course, new containers are more attractive than those which have been used : and only those second hand containers which are clean should ht ued again. ' : Cast Tils' rnst of containers puts a distinct limitation on small shipments 'tit farm produce. A shipment must hare considerable value In order that ,tbe transportation charges and cot of contqlBcr may not equal a large pcr icentag of the price. The price which en he reasonably paid for a container will depend on the Talue of the con tents; the cost of transportation, and the price received for the produce as compared with the price that could be received locally.; A maximum price that should he, paid Cannot he; stntedi at each case 'must he decided by study lag all of the factors Involved. i Cheap splint baskets are sntlsfne 'torr for many kinds of produce. For product" that need no special type, attractive and satisfactory containers .often ran be made by the producer at S low cost from clean, discarded pa fipr-honrd times In which merchandise has been shipped.
