Peach Inspectors Training Circular Planned In California

The Canning Peach Advisory Board of California with the California Canners League and UC College of Agriculture will publish an illustrated manual to train 300 inspectors each season. Major W. S. Evarts and Dr. W. P. Tufts led the plan to improve the canned peach pack. Color photos show defects like San Jose scale and shot hole before peeling and after processing to aid inspector instruction.
