AN IMPORTANT WEEK FOR FEAR INDUSTRY
: ....... , .
T1IIC program of the Oregon State Horticultural' Society,
which meets in this city Tuesday, confirms the prediction
that this promises to be the most important meeting of pear
growers the coimtry has ever seen.
At similar meetings in the past the general field of horticul
ture has been covered, from a district standpoint. Hut this year
20 out of 31 subjects oiiithe four-day program deal exclusively
with pears: mid from the standpoint of the entire Pacific Coast,
Vieluding California, Oregon and
the standpoint of one district.
As a result Ihe meeting should be marked by an interchange
of ideas and experiences, which should be of genuine and last
ins; benefit to the pear industry of the Pacific Coast as a whole.
Willi. K the program committee has carefully avoided, plne-
iiiir undue. enipliasis; upon the 'matter of advertising, this
paper, at least, will lie considerably lis;yipointed if Ihe gather
ing docs not result in 'a general agreement upon a pear adver
tising campaign supported by the pear growers of the Pacific
(,'oast as a whole instead of-by
Oregon alone. ' ,. "'..
We realize there are many obstacles to the immediate com
pletion of such an arrangement. Hut the benefits to the entire
industry are so apparent that, it seems to us, at least a pre
liminary step-could lie taken at this time, and various differ
ences ironed out at subsequent meetings. ' .'
The .success of the Winter Pear Committee" pi'ogrnin in De
troit this year shows what can lie done in a small way, and
points clearly to the great possibilities if it iijore extensive pro
gram were supported by the pour industry ax a whole. .
SOME MORE GOLF
Till? decisive victory of Jack llueslon, Medford professional,
over Walter llagen, former American and iiritish open
champion, deserves a word or two of comment.
' ', True, ITagen was decidedly off his game citt'lhc' Sceoltd nine,
but, to defeat the world 'st greatest compotitve golfer,' under any
circumstances, is a feather in the? cap of any golfer, and Ilnestoii
in every way deserves the congratulations he is receiving.
Moreover, tliis'vicTory, in our opinion, comes at the right
time. If ever :r'golfer has jbeen pursued by an uiiluucky jinx,
the Medford pro has been. Always a good golfer, one thing and
another has conspired. to' keep him from the jiosition iii Paeifie
Coast golf to which bis abilities entitle him. ; 1
This victory' should: and1 probably will give him the en
GOttragement he-needs, and the self confidence in competitive
play that has in the past been lacking. Wo see no reason why
Ifueston should not: go: far in the golf game, which will be a
good thing for him, aiid n good thing for Medford. ' i 1
TIFIv contest" 'Friday brought out another irteresting point re
garding this popular but frequently exasperating sport"
namely, the importance of good physical condition.
. ITagen was all square with' Hueston 0i the first nine,' and
only one stroke behind him ill medal play. ' But on the seeond
nine the "Great ITaig" played a brand of golf that was a de
light to every duffer in the gallery. ,
i His tee shot on the 10th was a mile in the rough beyond the
'green, and he had to take. a 5 on a par 3 hole! He dubbed bis
IfiM'.", HU s& hflrely made the hill a hundred yards
ifway,, his second Vyas over the green, and be again had to take
a-i).. .On. the 1.1th he was all over the lot, nnd had to take n 6 on
par 4. He came in with an 80, on a course with a 70 par.
"!'.''..'..'"..''!
TUB answer was physical condition. 'ITagAii admitted it, 'ex
plaining he had been obliged to stay up late to cateh the
S. P. train at Eugene, and the Cow Creek curves had disturbed
bis usual sleep. He looked like a million ''dollars, but-that was
on the outside; he felt," he said, like less than 20 cents within.
'.' They say golf is an old man's game, "it isn't. It's a young
man's game. The only old man with n 'chance' is the nian who
has kept himself in perfect1, physical condition,- and then the
young :man will win, Other things being': equtil,' nine 'tildes but
of ten. : ' " "' 1 ' ''
And this' is 'it's it should b'c. A game that demands such per
fect physical condition is a fine thing fnf 1 everyone participating
in it. The more men and women who participate in the game
ftlul take it seriously the better for all concerned.

felt It, because the credit reiiulred

That is why, tlie. foderal, reserve

merits attention ns a good. omen.
The Information upon which It 1

but It Is strongly indicative. The
