(Oregon's Bartlett Pear Crop
Totals 65,000 Tons ifor Year
Oregon's bartlett pear crop to
taled about 65,000 tons, a "near
record," this season, according
to - the agricultural . marketing
service of the U.S. department
of agriculture.
' The estimate was made last
week. The crop was about what
was expected on the basis of
earlier crop estimates.
Above 10-Year Average
Washington and California
bartlett crops also were close to
expectations, with the Pacific
Coast crop totaling 500,000 tons...
This compares to a crop of 498,
500 tons in 1954, and a 10-year
average of 465,700, tons.
Prospects for varieties other
than bartletts declined a little
in , -Oregon', during Septmeber,
the service said, with production
now estimated at 3,600,000
bushels, a "relatively ' large
crop." Sizes are not quite up
to expectations in southern Ore
gon, it is reported.
The Oregon peach crop, esti
mated at 13,600 tons, was "about
average, but nearly double the
1954 crop of 7,200 tons," the
service reported.
Filbert Crop Down
The filbert crop in Oregon
and Washington is estimated 20
per cent less than last year and
10" per cent below average. (In
1954, the Jackson county filbert
crop totaled about 1V4 tons, but
in 1949 it was more than five
tons, according to the 1954 farm
census.)
Pear picking throughout the
Rogue valley will continue at
a high level at least' through
this week, according to C. B.
Cordy, county horticulture
agent. Larger orchards and
smaller ones have a great many
pears still on the trees he said,
although some or chars have fin
ished and others will be through
the early part of the week.
The bartlett harvest is com
rjleted, and picking now is for
bosc, winter nellis and p.berry
varieties. , '
