The materials used are supplied by the American Red Cross and these gar ments are needed now and are In great demand. The Sewing club rooms are not very warm these cold nights so that Is the reason the meeting place ha been changed.

The house of representatives has passed , two amendments to the army appropria tion bill that are going to affect the character and morale of the army and navy. It Is hoped that the senate will deliberate over these bills and realize the seriousness of the situation. We need good officers In the forces of our country and we will not get them t these bill pass the senate. One of the parts of the bill Is known as the longevity pay curtailment. The men affected are those who served during the World war, Spanish American war and Boxer uprising, and men who rose from the ranks because of ability or courage In the face of the enemy. It has ever been the boast of Amer ica that anyone, no matter how poor or lowly, had the opportunity to reach the highest office In the country. Another amendment Is the retired pay restriction. It Is so loosely worded that It may be given many Interpretations. It 1 up to each and every one of us to use our influence to combat our great enemies, communism and radicalism. Watch and read care fully every petition you are asked to sign. It la up to us to see that our country to In a position to de fend Itself.

Cost of Pear Production Can Be Cut by Increased Yield Through Irrigation Study by Aldrich Shows Valley Costs Too High in Comparison With Other Producing Regions Ed. Nofe: The following dlscuslo0 of pear Irrigation studies in the I nt rests of lowering production costs was given by W. W. Aldrich of the U. s. department of agriculture at the January 28 meeting of the Fruit Growers' league. , Chapter III. Effect of Irrigation Upon Number of Fruits Per Tree The number of fruits per tree de pends upon three factors: (1) size of tree. (3) amount of bloom, and (3) amount of bloom that sets and holds Its fruit. Size of tree Increasing the avail able soil moisture Increases the sice of the tree. Measurements of the length of growth of branches In the Klamath experiments show that, with more available soil moisture, the branches made more growth. With greater length of branch growth, the pear tree will develop a more ex tended bearing area, thereby Increas ing the number of fruits per tree. It should be kpt In mind that branch growth In length Is complet ed each year by the middle of July. From data it now looks as If the amount of available soil moisture In June, 1031, determined to some ex tent the amount of bloom for the spring of 1933. I do not feel that the limited data are conclusive, but they suggest to us the Idea of determin ing whether Irrigation can be used as a means of reducing the excessive blooming of Anjous. Anjous certainly bloom excessively. From counts made at Medford Ex periment Station last year It was found that medium-sized Anjou trees had about 46,ooo blossoming points, or about 315.000 Individual blossoms The same trees, bearing a moderate crop, carried to maturity only 000 pears. In other words, only about 0.8 per cent of the blossoms formed fruits which were harvested. Blos soming Is a devitalising process. We believe that trees which do not blos som excessively should have less fruit drop In late spring. This point will be carefully studied this coming spring. If we find that, other things being equal, a lighter bloom la fol lowed by less dropping of fruit than Is a heavy bloom, we may be able to use Irrigation to reduce the amount of bloom, and thereby check the us ual serious dropping of Anjou fruit during late May and June.
