PEAR SALES, PLAN
An Intensive promotional cam
paign to procure the proper mar
keting and to stimulate retail eala
of winter pears la being conducted
at Interior markets by the Oregon-Washington-California
Pear Bureau.
It waa shown by bulletins received
here yesterday from Roy Webster,
the bureau's eastern manager.
When Mr. Webster mailed samples
of typical promotional bulletins e
was on a tour of the Interior mar
kets and was then In Kansas city.
Mo.
The bulletins were addressed prin
cipally to the trade as a means ot
emphasizing the necessity of ripen
ing the winter pears before tney
were offered to the consumer In
creasing sales Indicated the trade
was at last learning that to pro
cure the best results the late var
ieties had to be conditioned prop
erly before they were offered In re
tail marketa. In the past the winter
pears have been sold hsrd and
green with the result that the con
suming public did not care lor
them. It has been one of the bur
eau's functions to educate the trade
in the proper ripening and presen
tation of the fruit.
One trade bulletin telling of the
success attained when the winter
pearB are properly presented to con
sumers states: "St. Louis now has
the largest consumer demand in
yeara for Bosc pears. SclenUtlc con
ditioning revolutionizes salee of fall
and winter pear varieties."
Another trade bulletin dated No
vember 5 said: "Food Show Favor
ite. St. Louis Welcomes Bosc Pears.
First shipments of Bosc pear, win
acclaim of food show throngs. Many
hundreds of visitors at the St. Louis
food show last night voiced en
thusiastic approval of these fresh,
ripe, Juicy, golden Bosc pears.
Streamlined In shape, of aristocratic
appearance, these golden russet
beautlea with the long tapering
necks are fittingly covered by the
phrase 'Old gold outside, sugared
sunshine Inside'."
Further to assist the trade, grow
ers, packers, shippers and otnar
handlers, the bureau conducts an
extensive eastern advertising cam
paign, using newspapers, subway,
elevated Bnd street .car cards, special
articles In trBde papers and maga
zines and radio broadcaats.
The advertising this year Is cen
tered about the theme slogan: "All
good things come In pears."-
