Excerpt from Packing Apples and Peaches

When the entire fruit product of a section is disposed of locally the marketing problems are few and comparatively simple, but when the supply exceeds the demand and growers are forced to sell their fruit in distant markets, the problems multiply and become intensely complicated. Packages that will stand rough handling and railway shipment must be used. They must be neat, cheap and attractive, for where the grower is unknown to the buyer both he and his ware are invariably judged by the appearance of the latter: In the keen competition of the Open market the well packed box, barrel or basket always sells at the top of the market, while carelessly packed fruit of better quality will bring only an indifferent price.
