Thut pear growers of California have their eyes on the Rogue River valley and ore predicting u banner year in southern Oregon was evi denced In a letter received yester day by Cluy Conner from If. McCormlck. head 'of the famous A. Block pear properties In tho Santa Clara valley, . . - , Mr. McCormlck wrote, among other things, that he will havo only half a crop of pears this year, and that In the Sacramento vnlley he believes a 00 pou cent crop )x ait optimistic prediction. : Pears are dropping badly In all parts of Cali fornia and as a result he foresees a short crop throughout that state and consequently high prices. if Medford should escape serious frost dumage and produce bctwoen 3000 und 4000 cars, the writer be lieves Rogue . Itiver . valley .pear growers will make mora money than they ever have In the history of this section. . E Due to the fact that taxes for the first half of 1928 become de linquent today, payments will still be received tomorrow at the sher iff's office without the added pen alty of one per cent per month, Hhcrirf Ralph Jennings announced last night. There wus a big rush of tuxpaycrs In tho office all duy yesterday, but tho payments of tho day did not set any record. The announcement that the peri od of grace has been extended ono day will bo found of cspeclul benefit to taxpayors who through forgetfulness or neglect failed to malto payment before last night.

It cannot warp. All its joints are electrically welded as strong as the 'steel itself. The cabinet' is finished in a special coating that has all the beauty and sheen of porcelain, but will not crack, chip or check. It has a new type of insulation material, used in exactly the cor ' reel amount to maintain correct temperature, well below the 50 degree danger point. Like all General Electric Refrig erators it has an easily accessible temperature control whereby the user may accelerate the freezing rate of ice cubes when desirable.
