Activities of
Legion Auxiliary
(By Mrs. Cole Holmes)
The American Legion Auxiliary
has been busy the last week on many
welfare projects. Its committee heads
have been busy Investigating and
supplying several needy families of
Jackson county. The Sewing club
met Monday night, January 30th, at
the home of Mrs. John Fluhrer to
work on boys' shirts. A great deal
of work was accomplished by a dozen
of the members of the Sewing club.
All present said It was a very happy
evening and much worth while work
accomplished. Our regular Sewing
club meeting Is to be held on Mon
day evening, February 8th, at the
home of our welfare chairman, Mrs.
Carrol Parker, 808 South Central
avenue, at 7:30 p. m. All are urged
to be there as we have a lot of work
to do and many bands make It easier
for the rest of the workers. 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 13th of February will be the
regular social meeting of the Auxil
iary and everyone Is urged to plan
on being there. February Is a his
torical month and the committee 1
planning on something Interesting
for that meeting.
On February 27th at 3:00 p. m. the
Auxiliary will sponsor a benefit card
party In the women's club rooms In
the City hall. The proceeds from
this party will be used In welfare
work. Both auction - and contract
bridge will be" played and everyone
is asked to help In this project. There
will be a small fee charged and at
the end of the play refreshment will
be served. Please make reservations
for tables with Mrs. O. T. Baker,
(phone 1633) or Mrs. Everett Bray
ton (phone 491). The Auxiliary Is
asking everyone to help in this pro
ject. You will have a comfortably
warm room to play tn, your own
mends to play with.
The legislative committee has been
busy this paBt month. 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.
The 1933 program of the Auxiliary
call for still further expansion of
activities. Community betterment and
relief project, activities for the wel
fare of the disabled world war vet
erans and their families, support of
an adequate national defense, and
activities to protect American Ideals
and Institutions from radical Influ
ences are some of the project the
Auxiliary will take part in this year.
This work will help every person In
tne united States and make our na
tion a strong and prosperous one,
for one of our famous statesmen
said, "In union there Is strength.

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.
