As the fruit season is now almost at hand, I wish to draw your attention 'to the necessity of marking any basket with the number of quarts contained therein, unless such package will hold when level full fifteen quarts,, eleven quarts, or six'quartsy It has been brought to our attention that anum- ber of manufacturers are offering for sale baskets which do not contain the number of quarts above specified. In connection therewith the “Inspection and Sale Act" reads as follows: “Every basket of fruit offered for sale.in Canada must be stamped plain ly in black letters, at least tt inch deep and wide with the word quart in full, preceded with the minimum num-. bee of quarts omitting fractions, which the basket will hold When level full, unless such baskets contain fifteen quarts, eleven quarts, or six quarts." I feel that it is only necessary for me to draw your attention to this sec- tion of the act to have you comply therewith. 1 Miss Nellie Jacobs has returned to ther home in Smithville after spending :two weeks with her sister, Mrs. Ro-. lland Hill.
