Thut pear growers of California

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

3000 und 4000 cars, the writer be
lieves Rogue . Itiver . valley .pear

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

of the future"!
The engineers and scientists of
. the Research' Laboratories, hav
ing solved the most important
problem of electric refrigera
tionthat of the mechanism
next turned their attention to the
designing and building of this
infinitely superior, warp-proof
refrigerator cabinet. ,
It is a small-family model, built
entirely of steel as strong as a
safe. 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.
