Food Industries
A new WPA professional project,
involving $37,500 in labor, has been
started by the food industries de
partment at Oregon State college.
Under the general direction of E. H.
Wiegand, head of the department,
the project will involve work in the
central laboratories of Corvallis, in
the branch food products laboratory
at Astoria, and on several of the ex
perimental farms. It will continue at
least a year and perhaps two years,
depending on the division of the
activity.
The work involves research to dis
cover new and more practical ways
of preserving Oregon fruits, vege
tables, and fish products, and de
veloping new and better varities of
fruits and vegetables for these pur
poses. The work is being carried on
in cooperation with the federal fro
zn foods laboratory in Seattle and
with the new regional research lab
oratory in Albany, Calif.
In connection with berry variety
development, the food industries
staff and plant breeders are hoping
for a severe winter this year in or
der to test the hardiness of new
berry varieties which otherwise ap
pear to be superior to any now
grown commercially. If these new
varieties prove hardy they will be
increased and released to the public.
