CANADIAN APPLE EXPORTS
Quality rather than quantity was the feature of the 1935 Annapolis Valley apple crop,' according to leading packers and shippers of the Nova Scotia fruit belt. An average price of about 10s per barrel was paid throughout the season by United Kingdom buyers, a marked improvement over recent years. A better grade of fruit, obtained by more careful packing, is believed to be the reason for the higher prices. Estimates of the 1935 commercial yield place the crop between 1,750,000 and 2,000,000 barrels.
