Oreqon Man Wins Award
For Food . Industry Work
Corvallis - Prof. Ernest H
W leg and, the man who
launched Oregon'! J7.500.000
maraschino cherry Industry
and who pioneered work in
other branches of the state's
multi-million dollar food in
dustry, has won the nation's
top award for "outstanding
achievements in food tech
nology." He will receive the $1,000
Appert award and plaque
sponsored by The Institute of
Food Technologists at the
group's 20th annual meeting
at San Francisco in May.
Wiegand founded the Ore
gon State college food tech
nology department in 1919
and was department head un
til his retirement in 1952.
Since then, he has served as
a consultant to the food in
dustry. The OSC food technology
department was one of the
first organized in the United
States and is ranked today
among the top two or three
departments in the country.
Departmental research find
ings have meant millions of
dollars every year to Oregon
and the teaching program has
produced many of the leaders
in food technology throughout
the nation, college officials
pointed out. J
Wiegand developed a meth
od of cherry brining In 1925
that has been adopted by the
maraschino Industry both In
the U.S. and in Europe. Brin
ing is the first step in making
the fancy maraschino cherries
that are used in fruit cock
tail, as garnishes, candied for
confections, chopped for ice
creams, or made into choco
lates. Research on cherry brining
was started with an eye on
helping market the surplus of
the stale's cherry crop. It not
only solved this problem but
developed into a $7,500,000
annual operation.
Other Wiegand contribu
tions included development of
a tunnel food dehydrator, used
widely by prune growers; per
fection of methods for canning
and freezing fruits and veg
etables; and the invention of
fruit grading machines in
which he holds two public
service patents. He started a
series of annual short courses
designed to keep food industry
workers abreast of new devel
opments in 1922.

difficult. All you have to do
is step up to a plant and cut
off a branch.

taken in a new bulletin that
explains how to prune orna
mental plants. Published by
the Oregon State college ex
tension service, it lists ways
to make pruning simple,' yet
effective,
If you haven't tried your
hand at pruning before, you 11
find the first few cuts are the
hardest, the new bulletin
points out. After that, confi
de 'ce comes quickly and
you'll soon feel a definite
pride in your work.
Pruning is more effective
if you don't oppose nature,
but recognize the growth
traits of the various orna
mentals and prune to allow
plants to retain their natural
characteristics, the bulletin
adds. .
The bulletin gives simple
directions for pruning butter
fly bush, cotoneaster, for
sythia, weigela, holly, hy
drangea, lilac, flowering
quince, rhododendron and
azalea, beauty bush, spirea,
roses, hedges, and vines.

Interest to Start
On Tax Payments
Salem The State Tax Com
mission has reemphasized the
fact that an interest charge
on Installment payments of
state income tax goes Into ef
fect April 15, the deadline for
filing returns.
In previous years there has
been no such charge, but the
last Legislature imposed a one
per cent per-month charge for
those electing to make quart
erly payments.
Persons choosing to pay by
Installment this year will find
two amounts on their quar
terly statements from the coin
mission. One will be the
amount of their minimum
quarterly payment, including
interest, and the othcrkthe en
tire unpaid balance, including
interest. This will afford the
taxpayer an opportunity to
pay the entire balance and
save interest on the remaining
quarters.
Taxpayers are reminded
that, as before, they cannot
elect to pay quarterly if the
amount of tax due is less
than $25.
