BENEFIT OF PEARS COLLEGE BULLETIN Any time Oregon pear growers de cide to tell the wurld about the advantages of eating frequently a rich, ripe Bosc, Anjou or Winter Nells, they will be able to get plenty of health argument from a new Oregon State college experiment sta tion bulletin entitled "Biochemical Investigations of Certain Winter Pears." Behind this formidable sounding title, James C. Moore, assistant hor ticulturist of the station, reveals the result of research into Just what winter pears are made of a td what place they might be resaoo-ibly ex pected to fill in the diet. The report he lust makes shows that In the matter of alkalinity. winter pears rate ahead of some fam ous fruit widely advertised for tlila property. In what Is termed "bulfer value." used In measuring the prob able effect of food In certain con ditions such as malnutrition, these pears show up exceptionally favor ably. In copper content, considered somewhat related to prevention or treatment of anemia, winter pears are three to four times better than other fruits. The research was carried on at the collesa in cooperation with the Northwest Pear bureau. Slmlllar studies have shown these pears to be high in vitamin content and to contain large amounts of levuloee sugar at some stagea of develop ment. Pear production la now the major fruit Industry of the state. Becauae of fire hazard the Elks' lodge hs been forced to take the precaution of locking entrance to the picnic ground on Rogue river, owned by the lodge. Dry grass and underbrush prevail at the picnic ground and building of fire there endangers buildings and adjoining resin fields.
