In this connection I might mention that the Car Service Commission of Washing- ton, D. C, promises no relief from the present situation for next spring and summer. By accepting shipments from now on you are not only protecting yourself from a box shortage, but assuring yourself that your supply will be on hand when wanted. Standard specifications for the coming year were adopted at the conference after careful consideration, sample containers for all fruits and vegetables being on exhibition, which in no way conflict with state or national laws or vary from containers heretofore used by grow- ers and shippers so far as inside measurements are concerned. The changes deal entirely with the thickness and width of the various pieces used in the construction of a box. These changes appear to work to the best advantage of all concerned in the effort to meet the de- mand of the coming season. The specifications adopted for the standard apple box are as follows: Standard Apple Box—Two ends, one or two pieces, H%Xl
