Oregon Agricultural College,
Corvallis, Ore., July 29-"Oregon
has demonstrated, through
the eradication of fire blight at
Hood River and the excellent
work in control of pear blight
at Rogue River, the fact that
she has at least two of the most
progressive fruit growing sec
tions b the entire country, " said
Dean A. B. Cordley of the 0. A.
C. school of agriculture, discuss
ing recent pest fighting work
done in these districts.
"Some four years ago, when I
first detected the presence of
pear blight in the Rogue River
Valley, the fruit growers of that
section immediately inaugurated
an energetic campaign for its
eradication. Upon being in
formed that, owing to a lack of
funds, this institution could not
place a man in the field, they at
once applied to the Department
of Agriculture at Washington
for assistance. The result was
that Professor O'Gara was sent
to their assistance.
"Professor O'Gara organized
the work so successfully, and
gave such saitsfaction, that
when the Government saw fit to
withdraw him from the field, the
fruit growers themselves raised
the necessary funds to retain his
services.
"He has been in complete
charge of the work ever since,
with such success that, notwith
standing the fact that hundreds
and thousands of acres of or
chards have been completely
destroyed in other fruit growing
sections, the losses in Southern
Oregon have been insignificant,
though the disease has not been
wholly eradicated as yet"
