The association has al ready succeeded in securing the en actment of a state law which will do away with the short apple barrel evil, but this has nothing to do with the grading of the fruit and applies only to New York state. The meas ure, which Representative Porter has introduced provides for standard grading as well as standard pack ages, and it will apply over the en tire United States. This is a meas ure of far greater importance than anything which has ever been under taken in the way of legislation affect ing apple packing, and thus far there seems to be little objection to it on the part of growers or shippers, while all operators are naturally In favor of it. It will come before the fall session ot congress, and while it can hardly become operative during the coming apple season, there is every prospect of its passage, if strongly supported by those interested, and it would be in effect next year. The bill reads as follows: "H. R. BILL NO. 21,400. "'A Bill Concerning Standard Pack ages, Grades aud Marketing of Apples. "Ho it enacted by the senate and house of representatives of the Unit ed States of America, in congress as sembled. "Section 1 That the provision of this act shall apply to closed pack ages of apples that are, or may be, transported from one state or terri tory of the United States, or the Dis trict of Columbia, to another state or territory of the United States, or the District of Columbia, or from one place in a territory to another placo In the same territory, or from any placo in the United States to an ad jacent foreign country, or from any placo In the United States through a foreign country to any other place in the United States. Sec. 2 That In this act, unless the contest otherwise requires, the ex pression 'closed package' means a barrel, box or basket, of which the contract otherwise requires, the ex Inspccted when such package is pre pared for market.
