This bulletin also informs us that the Bo.sc originated in Bel gium; that it is a regular bearer; fruit evenly distributed over the tree and always of good size. As Mr. Van Trump. Marion (2) Soils such as are found in timbered regions are best suited lor the pear. ! Stimulating ferti lizers are conducive to pear blight; care should be taken to guard against the. disease. t3) One-year-od trees with well developed root systems, are considered best, and at the time of planting they should he cut back to the height at which the main branches for the future top are to be formed.

Tlie, Conclusion : The language of the concluding "Summary" of this bulletin is as f0lOW,Sj -'.i " (1) A gentle eastern or north eastern slope as a rule is prefer able for an orchard site, but this feature may vary , according to conditions. sition: fill in among the roots and trample down the soil, leaning the tree, slightly to the southwest. (4) Prune each year while the tree is in a dormant state; remove interfering cross branches and thin out where too densely grown; balance the top so as to afford free air circulation and admit sun light to all parts of the tree. (5) Picking, sorting, and pack ing the fruit should be done care fully so as to avoid bruising'. of puncturing the skin. (6) Summer and autumn varie ties, if for market, unless placed in cold storage where they may be held for a while during a glut in the market, require immediatee attention and disposition.

" Regarding the Anjou, Mr. Lewis was of the opinion that it did not do well -in western Oregon as it has a functional disease and is very slow fn ooming , into bearing. The winter Nelis was not recom mended, as experience had shown this variety Is hard to grow and difficult to produce large fruit In this part of the. state.

Editor Statesman: Yours of January 3. addressed to Mr. Paul hamus, at hand and; regret to say that Mr. Paulhamus is in the east on a business trip and will not be back before January 15. I might add. however, that the Bartlett pear Is the only variety in this western country that we find ' adaptable ,t or canning purposes. The Kiefer is used to some ex tent in the east, but is not grown I ere ot any extent. Many common, varieties such as . Clapps . Favorite, Flemish Beauty and others do not make a desired canned prpduct, and, what is even - more important, there. is no market for them. Canners must can what they can sell, and the national demand is for a Bartlett pear. There is one point in connec tion with the. raising of pears that. is overlooked by the grower, and that is the ?Iz ' Pears, as well as. any. other fruits, are graded by 'sie and aleo shape, and the grower who has small pears less than 24 Inches through the 1 bell, quite often, thinks that he should get a good price tor them, when, as a matter of fact, they must be graded into the gallon goods, on which there is no profit, and, in addition, the cost of labpr per pound is twice as high a a 2 s to 3-inch pear. I note that some Of our college authorities seem to think that c&nner.ies should handle the small pears at a profitable price to the grower, and. as a matter of fact. U leh&ihan 2',; inch thty cannot, be handled at a profit. J want to congratulate you on the fine workj youare doin with our special editions and I trust your growers realize the value of them. ; S.

The soils that treed disease for the pear and thould consequently be avoided pre those having an impenetrable hard pan and perennially wet subsoil. Such soils give rise to the die-back and blossom blight which ' in recent years have beeu i he "black beast" ot so many pear growers. l. Commercial pear growing In the Willamette valley, to be suc cessful in the highest degree must necessarily he limited to a few standard varieties. The, Bartlett Is the pear for the millions. It is the greatest of. all can- ninr pears: and nine growers will make money out, of the Bartlett here one will succeed with any other, or all other varieties. The Bartlett is a vigorous, hardy, pro lific tree. While, when grown a3 a standard, it normally attains to large size, yet the tree comes into bearing very young, (at 3 lo 4 years) and will yield more fruit in a series of years than any other desirable variety we have. The. one , teiious defect of tha Bartlett is that if is only slightly self-fertile, and requires the in ter-planting of other varieties for pollination. Just what varieties are '- best for. this pmpose. per haps has not been fully determ ined. We have used Fall Butter. Cornice and Vinter Nelis with fair agrees only . It one, coull secure a' perfect . pollinator for Bartlett, haying the commercial value of that variety and ripen ing at the same tint, 'it would be a rich find. There arc a number of grow ers in the Willamette valley who are growing other varieties of pear than Bartlett Tor shipment to distant eastern markets. While specialists may succeed in this Hue of production, we think that the average grower will make more money out of the Bartlett. The best of the late varieties are the Bosc, Anjou. Cornice and Winter N'elis.'. Xo farm home. thould be without a few trees of each ,of ,' these; varieties. . The Bosc Is the most delicious of ! table pears. If people only knew Its transcendent excellence it would, be. planted on every farm. It is Impossible In a short ar ticle like this to treat fully of planting,, pruning, cultivating and fertilizing the pear. , In passing we will simply say that the Bartlett tree is very seh om pruned-half as severely as it should , be to get best results, I know of only one pear orchard in Marion county that is ade quately pruned.' On many.farma in Marion coun ty, as elsewhere, are to be found growing numerous pioneer pear trees of nameless and nonde script parentage.

To be exact, the' figure is 49,590.4;. The Bartlett of course is, the heaviest pear crop of Oregon, run ning about as heavy as all other pear crops combined, for out of the half million sold this season. Bartletts were disposed of by the association valued at $241,996.97. The Bosc pear, which seems to be quite a favorite in the esat this season, ranks second in sales with a total ot $78,211.55. while the Anjou comes third with total sales of $56,871.52. Sales of the Win ter Nelis run a little over $14,000. In spite of the fact that the pear-crop this season was the association. ' through skillful handling, sold tlie crop of its member for the highest prices ever paid growers west of the Cascade Mountains. Sales were made by the-association by keeping a close watch on market conditions in the east, by placing pears in the east in cold storage and offering them on the auction market when conditions of the Oregon Growers.. Co-opera- pears were grown in the Medfore district. The Anjou pear sold on the ChV cago market at $4.71 a box for er tras, with an average of $4.51' a box for fancy.

Van Trump Marion County Frnlt InsrxTtor. The Wjliamette valley is the Paradise 6f the Pear. There are many reasons w-hy it should, be come the bieeest, and best peari orchard, on the American rent. " ' We will name" only a few of these reasons. - 1. Ideal pear soil can be bought here for less than " one-half the prnje pam ror equally good sou ii' any other peaf section v 2- The pear tree has fewer-foes and more friends here than in any other section. 3. The cost of producing a bushel of pears Is consequently less here than in any other pear growing section. . 4. The quality of our product is equal to the best. 5. The pear:ftts in well with other fruits, the harvest coming between that of the loganberry and that of the prune. fi U'e have a market at our door, at eood irices. for all then pears we can produce.' 7. Pears will help to make the conn-, smaii farm family. pay, and support a 8. We have not the expense ot irrigation. 9. The greatest item in the eost of producing pears is the con stant losses due to that everlast ing scourge called "pear blight." More than r0 per cent of all the pear trees plant d east of the Rocky mountains die of blfght before they come to bearing, age. Losses due to this dread disease are great, and of growing seri ousness, even.on the Pacific coast. Washington, j Idaho, California. aee is prune abyut 0.oou. ana pears 9 bout "13,a00. : And with pears It is the same a: with jtrunes, one-third of the total acreage is non-bearing. All of which means that in both the pear and prune crop the total crop will greatly increase within a few years when the non-bearing one-third comes Into bearing. According to the statistics of the state tax commission for 1920, Marion county ranks fifth in pear acreage in bearing, while Polk county ranks eighth. The pear acreage In bearing in Marion county is only 267 acres, and in Folk county only 136 ceres. The total acreage planted in pears in Marion county is 393, about 100 acres less than cherries. It is Jackson eour.ty of which Medford is the county eeat that is reall the great pear section nf the northwest. Qnt of the 13.212 acres in pears in the state, bearing and non-bearing. Jackson county is credited with S051 acies. And ranking second in the state in pear acreage Is Douglas county just north of Medford. with Rose burg as the county seat. Bnt this county has only 92S teres in pea i s. Josephine county.- which the government has made-largely into a natlona) park, has 863 acres in pears. 'in Marion county, there havs been no large plantings of peari in recent years, as statistics show I onlv 1.2 6 acres non-bearing. In ; Polk county there are SO acrei ; non-bearing, all of which indi-j cates that the pear crop of these two counties! will not materially 1 increase dutlng the next few years. ,; J Unn county doesn't go in very ' strongly for pears, as it has a to- ; tal acreage Of only 4S.
