Guthrie, Former Valley Grower Utilizes Methods Learned Here In Operation English Orchard The Mall Tribune baa received s copy of the London Dally Express of September 3, which le running series of articles "On the Farming Front" by the well known author, 6tr Philip Olbbs. In this Issue article No. S Is print ed, and the following extract will be of Interest to the people of southern Oregon, particularly to the fruit growers: I visited an Interesting apple grower not far from Paddock Wood and found him bringing In a load of windfalls, after wan dering through his orchards in search of htm. His trees were heavily laden and the fruit look ed splendid. Ha Is an Englishman with new roetAcds whloh he learnt In Medford, Oregon, U. 8. A., and is v trying to adapt to English mar kets. He sorts his apples Into ten grades by an up-to-date machine which cost him a lot of money, I am told. He packs them ten derly, each apple separate with a lovely boom on It. Hospitals buy them direct from him, and he finds a good market In Covent Garden. He does not believe much in the rough-and-ready packing of the ordinary growers, and caters more for the luxury trade. His friends and rivals smile and shrug their shoulders. "Too cost ly!" they say. "We couldn't make a profit on those lines. We grow for the multitude. I can't express a Judgment be tween those points of view, but I was vastly interested In the more scientific handling of fruit whloh I saw in Mr. Guthrie's orchards, and in the story of bis American experiences told under the tim bered roof of a fine old farm house of Btuart England. He can beat the Americans on their own lines because of the cheaper transport between Kent and Lon don instead of the six thousand miles' Journey from Oregon to Covent Garden, rerhapa there Is more to be done this way If the costs are not too high. E. F. Guthrie operated fruit ranches here very successfully from about IPOS to 1918, with H. B. Trea son, winning the apple sweepstakes at the Spokane show. He lived for many yeara near Jacksonville where .he operated his own pear orchard, as well as a pear orchard near Central Point and an apple orchard near Eagle Point. His experiment of using American methods In England, has been fol lowed with keen Intlerest by many of his friends In the valley, several of whom have visited him In England during the past ten years.
