Fifteen letters question the ad visability of plucing paraffin over the top of tho conserve. And one letter, written by a former Amer ican, explains tho foreign cooks' consternation. It reads: "The paraffine suggestion will probably cause much trouble in foreign countries as tho paraffin they know l"a -crude -oil1, only used for burning and similar purposes." From England a woman writes: "If you pour paraffin on top surely it will not bo fit to cat," speaking of tho pear conserve. Another woman'in London, who Is not ob viously alanmod. at the paraffin suggestion, or perhaps found a dif ferent recipe on tho wrapper, writes: "As your pears are better than most wo can buy here, we imagine that your American rec ipes might be better than our Kng lish ones, our recipes not being made to cope with audi excellence." J. V. Medway,' breeder and exhibitor of C.iant ltlue Keverenw, writes from hiwrabbitry in Hamp shire, "These arc the finest pears it has been my good fortune to tase in 40 years," and closes the letter with a request for the at tractive recipe book, which is being mailed this week 1 by the chamber of commerce to all coun tries of tho globe. Btlll another . Englishman, who has feasted on southern Oregon pears writes. "They are the most beautiful pours l'vo soon, so sweet and Juicy. In fact, , in my estima tion, unbeatable." And a man from Austria, whoso writing couldn't be figured out be yond the request for a book, wrote many wordH, which look long and flattering on paper. .

Another school mistress asked for the recipe books to distribute to parents and students at a holi day tea she was plannning. j From Sevendou, EngM a railroad town,' ''1 girl employes signed their names to the request for booklet? and explained that they have been sampling southern Oregon pears at lunch time and are anxioifs to know how to cook thorn.

BIG GRANGE MEET f Automobile Industry Hailing 1931 As "Recovery Year" I ! ; : q ; i FOR ICE BOX AT LITTLE AMERICA "When tho "Clt of New York" nosed up the Ross sea and came the -rest beside the great Ross shelf Ice back In December, 1928, she carried some strange cargo aboard, Ice-boxes for the South Pole were among the provisions mndc, by Ad miral Hiuhard Evelyn ityrd, who will tell his own story of Uttlo. America at the Holly -theater, Med ford, on January 17th, under tho sponsorship of tho Anierican Ixv gUm. Ice-boxes would not seem to be as much In demand In the polar regions a. say, a good Mout brass bed-warmer, but they proved in dispensable In keeping tho cream sweet overnight. Food would freeze in tho sub-aero temperatures if left outside- tho huts, and Inside the temperature was too high. So the ice-boxes solved tho problems. Needless to say, tho monthly ic bill was not one of tho annoyances of life at bit tic America. Amazing motion pictures show ing life at Little America, tho mys ! teries of the vast Antarctlcnnd tho historic flight to tho South Pole i will be shown in connection with th" lecture. These motion pictures have been selected and assembled under the personal direction of Admiral Hyrd. f - AT JACKSONVILLE TO HEAR OEBATE Jacksonville Grange U starting Its new year's work with the usual enthusiasm for educational and en tertaining programs. C. C. Hoover, the new lecturer, has arranged a program for 8 p. m. on Friday that will prove no exception. The Medford high school will bo well represented in the pro gram. The debating team will do bate the chain store question, which will be further discussed by two local Granger in tvominutu talks, tho purpose of which is to give the farmer's slant on tho quen tion. This question is one that Vitally concerns tho farmor und every farmer should make an of-! fort to hear the discussion. i Tho programs will begin at 8 o'clock sharp, and will bo open to the public. Mr. Hoover has ox tended a sjMMMal Invitation to the members of 1he Jacksonville -high school, and would be glad to have them attend in a body. The Grange would also appreci ate tho attendance of the public at these meetings, as it feels it be-, longs to Jacksonville and that a, closer association between the Grange and nun members would bo beneficial to tho community as a whole. j M utile will be furnished by the; Medford high school octet ajnd quartets. There will also be read ings by members of Prof. Ilalley s dramatic class. ' Ity l ID .1.

So offecilvoly has it met and disposed of mu.t problems that le .i't it with tho eollap.se of its mar ket in 1!30, that tho Industry might quite properly bo said to be "stripped for action." Certainly it has stripped itself of the problem of overproduction. Through the simple but effective fxpedifiit of letting the dealer lead instead of leading the dealer, the Industry has disposed of a huge overproduction from H2. : With comparatively littlo "dis tress selling," dealer have been able to dispose of a surplus of ap proximately 1,000.001) cars and call on producers for new models many weeks before they normally would have been placed in production. It is from this fact that the in dustry finds much of Us encour agement for 1931. Virtually all motorcar builders have brought out new modeU earlier than usual. Others will present new types or improvements on current models at tho national shows in New York, January it U 10, and in Chicago, January H4 to 31. ! The industry confidently looks 'on 1H31 as the "recovery year." Traders cite several reasons for optimism. -1 They point to analyses that fix the normal annual replacement at approximately 3.000,000 vehicles: an export business which, although con l runted by new difficulties, should lie an important Item next yVac-uml -to- tlu volume of "new owner" business developed each year. .v.. jKvenl hough alt the normul re- .... : :-jvsssS Manufacturers of cars liae brought out new models earlier than HMial this reason.

Kaily In KU a "scrapping" pol icy designed to send ni:ny wornoiit motor vehicles to tho scrap heap was decided upon, but it offered only minor relief. The merchandising outlet prob lem is a creation of the "expensive prosperity" of I !-"'. when more cars wero produced than tho deal ers could sell. Tho result wa.s no little "dealer mortality," or failures. Thus -tho industry also faces a problem In building up dealer or- ga nidations. Yet, with all t lie vi rions worries, tho industry is ready for J 1131. LA F0LLETTE BECOMES WISCONSIN'S GOVERNOR MADISON. Wis.. Jan. 6. !) .
