PAPER USED IN
FIG SHIPMENTS

ninche is now belnir usiprl instoail of
uo lo ship fiesh fins to outside
markets, iiccorclinir to P. II. Scott
of I.one Slur, Cnlif., discoverer of
the new shipping method. Kigs are
now being shipped to Pacific Count
cities and to the east without the
use of ico or refrnreration. Mr.
Scott suys.
Ihe miner mache containers, n ap
ed in ordinury wooden boxes, are
ni layer form, and indented in shape
of figs. When a layer is filled, a
cover of paper innche is placed on
lop, winning a perieet fit ami plac
ing each fig in an individual com
partment. .Mr. Scott declares the icetess
shipments arc a success- He says
he is now shipping 210 boxes of
fresh figs a day without refrigera
tion, and, he adds, they are reach
ing the markets of the south, north
and east in perfect condition.
This mehtod of shipment, frail
growers. here state, will open unlim
ited markets for fresli figs. Hy
eliminating the cost of icing or re
frigeration, growers state, fig men
will -be--able -to-plaee-'lhclr product
