One of the most interesting mat
ters which will come up for attention
41 1 the meeting of the International
Apple Shippers' Association at Ni
agara Falls will be the bill Intro
duced at the Spring session of con
fess by Representative Porter of
DNTew York. 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.
