abstract
Abstract Not Available – First paragraph follows:
Cannery losses during the pitting and peeling of cling peaches substantially lessen the volume of fruit reaching the can. Reducing those losses would increase the canner's case yield per ton—a greater pack from a given quantity of peaches—and cannery costs could be reduced.
