APPLE GROWERS
OF ROGUE AREA
10
Society and Clubs
By JAKKT WRAY SMITH
Plana are now toeing formulated
for the organization of apple grow
er so that mutual problems of pro
duction and marketing may be dis
cussed and solved, the Mall Tribune
was told today by Charles A. Wing,
one of the largest growers and pack
era of Newtown apples in the Rogue
valley.
Upon the request of several orch
ardlsts Mr. Wing said he would call
a meeting of apple growers In the
near future upon his return from a
trip to southern California.
Mr. Wing was optimistic about the
future prices of Newiuwn apples.
Since severe frosts did considerable
damage to crops In the northwest,
numerous Inquiries have been receiv
ed here regarding the supply of New
town apples In tht valley, he said.
To explain his optimism he pointed
out also that there have been prac
tically no new plantings of the New
town variety In the Rogue river area
In the past five or six years. At the
same time, he said, production has
been decreasing' elsewhere.
The Wing packing plant completed
Us operations for the season last
Tuesday when the 25th carload that
had been sold was shipped. Practi
cally the entire tonnage vfrom the
Wing Orchards, he stated, was ex
ported to London and Liverpool. Sat
isfactory prices were obtained, he
said, a few carloads having been sold
. to net 85 cents a box.
Since his last shipment Mr. Wing
said he had received inquiries re
garding Medford Newtown apples
from Singapore and Egypt.
"Owing to the fact that those mar
kets require a green Rewtown apple,
the Medford district Is In very great
favor there.' Mr. Wing declared.
It Is Mr. Wing's conviction that
the chief difficulty here In the past
has been that the grower haa neg
lected his apples. This, he said, has
resulted in excessive production costs
per packed box. Another handicap,
he stated, was that some orchardlsts
permitted sale of their apples on
consignment rnther than for cash
here.

Land Like Feather
At 1 :05 p. m. the filers radioed they
were starting down. Three hours
later, after descending at a rate of
300 to 400 feet a minute. It had
drifted northeast until It landed here.
Under the skllfull piloting, the gon
dola scarcely bumped as It touched
earth, The airmen opened a rip
panel on the balloon and tne mewi
gondola rolled to one side and stopped.
Henry Ubel, who was not 60 feet
from the craft when 1t landed, said
the gondola came down "like a
feather."
"There wasn't a bounce." he said.
"The big gaa bag flattened out as
they opened the rip panel, and the
two captains, 'apparently tickled to
death.' climbed out. unhurt and not
even scratched."
The captains organized vi-.-mteers
to hold off souvenir seekers, and
later went to Kimball, 18 miles away,
for a night's rest.
Large Towns Visible
The flier, said they noted a marked
curvature of the earth from the
height of 73,000 feet. They said they
were impressed by the lack of detail
In the earth's surface. Larger towns
were visible, but blurred, they re
ported. Captain Anderson said he was con
fident the balloon could have gone
at least 8.000 feet higher. He em
phasized that his calculation of a
73.000-foot celling waa subject to
check of the "meterograph" which
was suspended below the gondola.
"But we had a pretty good baro
graph." he added.

In the past, every time Pete h3

several new tricks In his bag. Altho
the consensus is that he'll take Ken
naston without much trouble, he may
need those tricks In view of the fact

"down-under" type of grappling, thn
behemoths tangle for six 10-mtnute
rounds, and rest for one minute be

round, but two falls will end the
match.
Estes and Wolfe are two of the
most popular smear and sneer artists
ever to appear in Medford, and are
expected to put on a good show.
While EUtes depends largely on speed
and trlcklness, using the flying tacklo
and the over-t he -ropes slingshot at

one. watching for an opening and
