COLD STORAGE INVESTIGATIONS. During 1914 and 1915 variety tests have been made with the principal tender fruits^ grown in the Niagara district at temperatures of 31° F. to 32° F., and 40° F. to 42° F. The objects of the tests have been to determine the effect o'f rapid and gradual precoohng (the results of which have already been shown), the behaviours of the varieties under low temperatures, and the length of their life under refrigerator ear temi^rature (40° F.). The records will be supplemented as future work brings forth added information. STRAVBERRIBa- Our tests indicate that strawberries may be held from two to five days at 40° F and from four to seven days at 32° F. Tests were made with the following varieties: Joe. Pocomoke. Glen Mary, Wm. Belt, and Wilson.
