The packing and transportation of Nova Scotia apples . : A12-8/21-1936E-PDF
"The problems connected with handling Nova Scotia apples are numerous and complex. In the past, useful information has been obtained from experiments dealing with particular phases of the subject but the work reported in this bulletin is the outcome of the first really comprehensive study of the subject as a whole. Of perhaps greater importance is the fact that whenever possible, information has been statistically analysed and differences between treatments have been subjected to rigid mathematical tests. In addition, observations by those technical officers who accompanied the experimental shipments are included in this report and they are of great value."--Introd., p. [5].
