AUSTRALIAN FRUIT EXPORT TRADE
CARELESS METHODS CRITICISED.
Sydney, January 29.
Mr. L. H- Freeman, chief partner in the firm of Freeman and Company, of London, who are big buyers of canned goods, states that the careless and indifferent methods of packers and cannel's are killing the Australian export trade in canned and preserved fruit. There is a glut of ripe fruit at present, and hundreds of tons are going to tho tips daily, or rotting in the orchards. There is” not a single export order for Australia at present, whereas there should bo orders for 300,000 to 400,000 cases. He urges the grading of goods true to sample, so that they would reach tho retailer in an attractive marketable condition. —Press Assn.
