BEDFORD MAIL TRIBUTE, MEDFOKD, OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1935 PAGE TTVB F WILL CLEAR PATH EARLY FOR MS Advertising and Ripening Methods Boost Demand for Bosc Same Tactics Will Be Used for Anjous CCC Boy Given Smokes Instead Of Term In Jail LOS ANGELES, IX:. 19.

"The officers should have given you a cigarette and turned you looae," aald Judge A. A. Scott. "Caae dismissed." The Judge bought Ted a carton of cigarettes and paid hli way bark to camp. HEAVY INCREASE NEW YORK, Dec. IS. Boae peara will clean up at an early date this season. This will leave a long period In which to distribute the Anjou crop. Although the Bosc season was rather tardy In opening, because ot a late growing season and liberal supplies of Bartletts until well Into October, the movement Into con sumption has been very rapid In the past two months. At the outset of the Bosc deal It was feared, that the relatively short period In which the crop would have to be distributed might have a bad effect on prices. The An jou crop was heavy, which meant that If all the distribution of Bosc was delayed at all. they would have to sell In competition with Anjous. However, several steps were taken to speed up the distribution of Bosc. In the first place, provision wss made for ripening Bosc properly be fore putting them into consumer channels. This excellent pear has never attained the popularity It de serves because consumers purchased so few that were in prime eating oondltlon. This season the ripening methoda overcame this difficulty. The second step was a well-planned but by no means costly advertising campaign. A combination of radio, newspaper and dealer service meth ods brought results and brought them quickly, window signs wye numerous Bnd efficiently distributed. The result has been an exception ally good demand for , Bosc all through the season, with a better price average than many antici pated at the start of the deal. While It is difficult to prove any euch technical points as the per centage by which advertising and ripening methods increased the price. 1t is generally agreed that they did. It Is a safe guess that Bosc would have averaged 25c box lower without the benefit of these aids, and the difference might easily have been greater than 35c. Gone by January 1. As It Is. the supply of Bosc will he largely cleaned up by January 1. Last year Bosc sales lasted In some volume throughout practically all of January. Other varieties of pears have been moving freely, also, and the big Anjou crop was a -record-breaker, but the fruit has been moving freely In both export and domestic markets, with the result that about two-thirds of the crop has already been sold. This does not mean that It Is two-thirds consumed, but a big tart on It has been made. Anjoua will be backed by a well planned advertising campaign, the asms aa Bosc were, which should help materially to get the crop mov ing Into consumption. After January I. when Bosc are cleaned up. Anjous will be offered more freely. This will mean a period of nearly four months In which to move the balance of the Anjou crop, a period sufficiently long to give the advertising cam paign a chance to do Its work. Winter Nells available for domestic tnsrkets will probably be In smaller volume than usual. The bulk of the Nells this sesson was In the Yakima district, and that section sold a large percentage of Its crop early for ex- port. Some domestic ealea have been made also, and most of the Yakima NelH crop haa already been sold and much of It shipped. There are moderate supplies at Hood River and Medford, but the total volume in these two districts Is not heavy, and they should be moved without difficulty during their normal season. Normally the Medford district moves Its Nells crop late In the aeason. and this practice will no doubt be followed again this season. California had a light production of Nells, and the aupplles during the balance of the sesson may be smaller than usual. Produce News.
