STORY 1 (Continued from Page 1) year's work In New York City, distributors and buyers had of fered him unlimited use of storage oqulpment, valued at 9in.ooo.ooa. He attributed this to the fact that efficiency and system In placing the pears on the .market,, was re garded as "good business, and money In their own pockets, aa well as In the pockets of the grow ers." He said there was little doubt but that ripening space could be secured In Now York City for pears. "The people In the east do not like to buy a green pear, any more than you like to buy a green ha na na." 1 1 e sa Id t he pea r was the most difficult of the fruits to ripen properly, but It could bo done, without great expense or ofi'ort. and the return In "satisfied customers," would more than off set the original costs. Prof, Hart man estimated that tho "pin-hole rot" In pears, as evi denced in shipments this year, had cost the Winter Nells growers of this section $1 per box. Ho said the main ailments of pears last year, at the point of receipt, were limb bruises, friction blisters, gray mold, shriveling, and premature ripening. The traders object to friction bruises. , BftcTlonilloit Seen lie said that his observations showed that pears shipped from Medford In October hail arrived 90 per cent fit. but that shipments made during the hot weather, had arrived about that percentage un fit. He also found that the ton box layer In refrigerator cars rip- j ened fast, and that a system! should be evolved to eradicate this;'1" n,,w the first Atlantl fault Prof. Hartman also held that the Howes should be picked before the D'AuJous. contrary to local cus tom, as one corrective step. Premature ripening was also given as a fault of local pears, an causes, but no definite cause I had yet been round. He said there! hud been many reports of "core' breakdown" In Medford shipments In 1929, but thai his researches had shown It to be no worse than In other years. Prof. Hartman aked the grow ers and shippers t wait until his report la in printed form, and In study and read It. foi their own Informative benefit. j been very nice to me hero and i! have no kick coming.

David H. Wood, chairman of tho Winter Pear committee, outlined the 11)30 market expansion pro gram, . 1 le said : "Hefore outlining the plans of the Medford Winter Pear commit tee for 1930 und discussing the de tails of same, 1 feel it would be advisable for me as chairman of Hint group to make clear the alma and purposes of our organization. "The Medford Winter Pear com mltteo is a development organiza tion only. It Is not u marketing organization; It is not connected with any federal or state coopera tive institution. As u development unit we expect to open up new markets for Medford pears. There Is no mystery connected with our oporntlona." Chairman Wood scoffed at the local rumor, that tho Bosc cam paigns were a dire plot to Inveigle the growers Into' a co-operative organization, before they knew It. "Wu nro not In need of federal assistance, or farm relief. We have sufficient funds of our own to solve our problems." lie showed by financial state ment, that the Detroit campaign had been conducted without a financial loss, as expected, but after tho missionary work was fin ished tho books showed a balance of 98000. (iood lSllSlllCMH He said the opening of now mar kets this year in Pittsburgh, Cleve land and Chicago, was "Just good buslnoss, and laying tho foundation for a national advertising cam paign In tho future." Wood point ed out that tho three new markets contained a population that knew little of Bosc pears, but were anxi ous and willing to buy fruit. Tho program for the year as adopted Is. as follows: - 1st. A levy of five cents per box on every box of Bosc pears shipped by all subscribers In 1930. 2nd. A levy of one cent per box on all fall and winter varities. 3rd. Tho committee ts definite ly pledged to continue develop ment work In Detroit, estimated expense at that point being 92025. I The campaign In Detroit calls j for at least 1 1 ears. Tho programs for Pittsburgh I and Cleveland call for 20 cars, tho cost in each city being estimated at 91900. STORY 2 (Continued from Pago 1) dents of the Dead Indian district were anxious to give a right of way without restrictions, und fur thermore would go out and help clear It. He urged that u survey be established at once. County Engineer Paul ltynnlng said that a short notice survey was not possible, as it will "take some time to get It right, and we don't want to go "stomping over the country, and not get any place.' i The county engineer also ex plained that the maintenance of the road was now tinder way. and crews had been established for that purpose this woek. No definite action was taken as h result of the meeting, the county court reaffirming It was proceeding, as best -It could. nmU would continue to do fo, "audi everything will work out all right! when the county gets straightened' out."
