FRUIT GRADING
. AND STANDARDISING OP CASES. Efforts are being made by those directly concerned in order to hava all fruit cases standardised and all fruit graded on the American lines before it is, offered for sale at the .markets. The present system is considered by both fruitgrowers flnd retailers as unsatisfactory, both parties favouring; the American system whereby all cases are standardised, tho fruit is properly graded, and the cases are stamped with tho grade and quantity. Regulations governing the stancfardisahon of,cases and tho grading of fruit ha-'e already been framed, but have not Vet been finally sanctioned by the Government, and at yesterday's 'meeting of the Wellington District Fruiterers' Association', delegates were appointed to wait on the Director-General of Agriculture, with a view to having these regulations brought into operation as 'early as possible.
