FRUIT THAWING POSSIBLE POMOLOGY PROFESSOR PLAINS PROCESS. EX- W. S. Brown of Corvallis Says Frozen Apples Can Be Made Available for Market. OREGOX AGRICULTURAL, COL, LEGK, Corvallis, Dec. 20. (Special.) Much of -the frozen apple crop of the Pacific northwest can be saved and either used locally In butters and marmalade, or, if not too badly broken down, marketed through the usual channels, said W. S. Brown, professor of pomology at the college. The se riousness of the injury depends upon whether the protoplasm was killed or merely moisture exuded. If the freeze w as so hard as to kill the protoplasm. nothing can be done with the fruit but throw it out. Other "actors that help determine the possibility of saving the frozen apples are the degree of ripeness and manner of thawing out. Very ripe fruit was said to have suffered much more than greener fruit, and rapid thawing, especially in a' dry .at mospliere. increases the amount of injury. Recommendations by Professor Brown are as follows: Do not handle the frozen apple unless it is necessary to truck them into a cham ber where thawing conditions are under bettor control. "Watch process carefully and keep tem perature low and moisture plentiful. Sort over the fruit at fhe end of a week, throwing out all that are soft, withered and off flavor. Save the firm. . un withered, fruit .of nor ' mal flavor and market it as early as pos sible. The price probably will "be cut a lit tle on this kind of fruit because of the (rreater risk In handling-. Fruit that is only slightly damaged may t worked up into butter or marmalade' in the community, but la not recommended lor cider. den; I. R. Struble, junior warden; E. E. Magee, recorder; E. R.
