. Better fruit. Fruit-culture. Northwest Standard Northwest Fence &. Supply Co. PORTLAND, OREGON means of carrying the nuts through this tunnel vary: small rollers may be used, or an inclined wire cloth tray which is continually shaken laterally, thus caus- ing the nuts to roll along gradually in a single layer. From the bleacher the nuts are ele- vated to the drying bins. Some packing houses carry them through wooden tun- nels, through which a current of warm air is passing, on their way from the bleacher to the drying bins. This par- tially drys the nuts, so they are ready to bag in a few hours. If the nuts are not passed through warm air the dry- ing process in the bins will require from twenty-four to forty-eight hours, depending upon the weather. â VSTiile the nuts are passing along the belt from the bleacher to the drying bins they are continually watched by several persons, who pick out the poorly bleached and otherwise inferior nuts. Such culls are sent to the cracker, where they are cracked and their meats sold, after being graded according to color and general condition. As the nuts are emptied into the dry- ing bins they are usually distributed among several bins at the same time. Again when they are drawn out and sacked several bins are emptied at once. This thorough mixing assists in putting out a uniform product as a whole, con- sidering the variability of seedling wal- nuts. One hundred pounds of nuts is put in each sack. Nuts put up as thus described, after being thoroughly graded and culled, can be sold and guaranteed to contain a certain percentage of good nuts. The present year the association houses guarantee a crack of 87% good sound merchantable meats with their seedling nuts and 90% with their budded nuts. These grades may often actually crack from 95% to 97% sound meats. Giving. Just money! That is all we're asked to give. He gave his life, Jim. He'd have liked to live.
