side.
"The ' Hose pear originated at
Mons,' Belgium,- during the early
nn.it 'of the lath century. It was
developed by Dr. Van Mons, nom
ologist ut Loiivaln university. Bosc
was selected from a collection of
over 80,000 varieties produced by
Van Mons during his lifetime. It
is interesting to note that the bat
tle of Mons, the first major encoun
ter between the British and Ger
man forces in the 'World war, was
fought on the site where Van Mons
carried on his work.
' Age of Production
"The tree of a Bosc is rather
precocious in its habits, and be
canse of this. the variety succeeds
only iu certain favored localities.
This accounts for the comparative
rarity of this variety in American
markets. It is generally conceded
that in North America it reaches
its greatest perfection at Medford
In the Rogue River valley and ad
joining districts of southern Ore
gon. .This region, In fact, is one
of the few places iu this country
where Bosc is cultivated as a com
mercial variety.
Medford Boscs Produced With Care
"Medford Bosc pears are the pro
duct of science, plus intelligence
and skill. In no other fruit sec
tion is science and practical ex
perience more successful In pro
ducing a product of high quality.
Throughout the growing season
Medford Bosc pears are subjected
to the most-uiModate methods of
pruning, thinning, irrigation and
tillage. They are kept free from
disease and insects by systematic
and thorough spraying. The dread
ed 'fire blight', which lias spelled
doom for the pear industry in many
regions, is successfully controlled
at Modl'ord. -
Harvesting operations are carried
on with the greatest of care. Time
of picking Is determined by means
of instruments that indicate when
the proper picking state has been
reached. This insures a product
of maximum dessert and keeping
quality. s
Fruit Washed
"After picking the (ruit is
brought in immediately to large
packing and refrigeration, plants,
where it is. prepared lor Bhlpping
and storage. Here it is 'put through,
a .washing process which originat
ed at Medford nnd which cleans.
the fruit of all dirt, spray residues
and other forms of foreign matter.
Alter washing the fruit is care
fully sorted as to size and quality
and then is packed in clean, sani
tary containers, each individual
specimen being sealed in a paper
wrapper which protects It from all
contamination until It Is delivered
to the consumer. Medford pears

Sugar's five uses
in the diet . . .
Authority explains this delicious food
We recently asked the food scientist at
one of the great universities to describe the
rightful place of sugar in the diet.
"Sugar has five distinctive uses, he said.
"1. A conscrver of foods. 2. A flavoring sub
stance. 3. A satiation factor. 4. A staple fuel.
5. An emergency fuel."
The scientist howed that sugar is used as
a conserver of many foods, especially fruits.
. Discussing sugar as a flavorer, the scientist
said: "One of the most praiseworthy develop
ments of the modern diet lies in the expansion
of the use of fresh fruits . . . contingent on the free avaiiamuiy ,
f Discussing sugar as a satiation factor, he said.: "Topping off the
meal with a sweet dessert gives a sense of satiation ... an
important item in the diet." '" - '
The scientist pointed out that "Sugar as a staple fuel ranks with
starch . . . sugar is more rapidly digested than starch; otherwise
they are entirely comparable fuels.",
14 h.n defined the use of sugar as an emergency fuel. The

lived product. During transit from
Medford to the consuming centers
the fruit travels in refrigerator
cars. Cold temperatures are pro
vided by ice and salt and the pro
duct is transported across the
country with little or no spoilage.
Over 8,000,000 pounds of ice are
used each year in the transporta
tion of Medford pears,
Ripening of Bosc Pears
Unlike many other fruits, Bosc
pears require special ripening
treatment to bring out their nat
ural quality. While they may be
kept iu cold storage for compara
tively long periods ef time they do
not lipenjiroperly If kept constant
ly at low temperatures. Recent In
vestigations have shown that living
room temperatures varying 'be
tween tiO degrees and 70 degrees
Fahrenheit are essential to the de
velopment of lull quality In Bosc
pears.
Season for Bosc Pears
"With a combination of prompt
storage and ripening at high tem
peratures as the occasion demands
It is possible, to have Bosc penis
of excellent quality on the market
fcr a comparatively long period.
By this system it Is possible to
have Bosc pears in godd eating
condition from the first of October
to the first of January.
"As a rule it is not advisable to :
keep Bosc pears in cold storage j
alter January first. If kept beyond
this date they may not ripen prop
el ly uiion removal. I
"Pears are sensitive to odors and I
should not be kept In the same
ph'ee -with strong smelling pro
ducts. Appeal to Detroit Housewives
; "Everyone knows about the St.
Louis Robin. Everyone commends
the two courageous, persevering
men who showed the world what
a well cared for engine, controlled
by competent hands, can accom
plish. Everyone realizes, too, that
the greatest concern of the two
filers who spent their summer va
cation in the clouds above St. Louis
was the fuel which kept their, mo
tor tournlng faithfully for over two
weeks. Would they have been con
tent with ANY fuel? Indeed not!
So it is with Mrs. Modern House
wife. She Insists on only the best
lor her engines namely, the big
and little stomachs of her family.
She is constantly alert and eagerly
anxious to learn more and more
about the care of her group of big
and -little engines. Thai is why
Mrs. .Modern Housawire -is , Begin
ning to use pears.' She lias grown
to realize the necessity for fruit in
her daily diet, but for some reason
the pear has, until recently, es
caped her attention. She knows
that scientists have louna tnree
vitamins in food A, B and C
which are absolutely necessary to
good , health, and now she learns
that two of these health giving vi
tamins are to be found in pears.
"Mrs. Modern Housewife, in her
claracteristic eagerness to learn
more of the new healthful foods,
discovers that Bosc, pears may be
purchased at any ot the wholesale
ruilt auction houses, or retail
stores connected with them in her
city during September, October,
November and December.
Hnw ta Serve
"Perhnn the (mention arises in
Mrs. Modern Housewife's mind
How can I best serve this fruit to
mv family? One of the most ciiarin
lng and satisfactory ways Ib to pre-
nnre a salad. Visualize a crisp,
green lettuce leaf fringing one-half
ot a Bosc pear, peeled; cored and
cut lengthwise, sprinkled over with
grated cheese, topped with mayon
naise, and perhaps a bit of paprika
to give a touch of color. , Doesn't
Il sound delicious?
"Another way to delight the pal
ates of her family group Is to pre
pare a sugar syrup and pour over
the Bosc pears which have been
placed in a shallow baking pan
halved, but not peeiea. uaaneu
with nutmeg or cinnambn, and
served with cream the pears
baked In this manner will certain
ly become a dish of special favor.
"There are many otner ways.
which the competent and clever
housewife will soon discover once
she lias Introduced the Bosc pear
to her family. Coupled with the
satisfying thought that she has
found a food which pleases her
family. Is the very authentic and
certain knowledge that she is giv
ing them an excellent food a per
fect kind of body fuel.
