Cordy returned Thursday from a meeting of the western section of the American Institute on Biological Sciences in Eugene where a half day was spent on pear decline. "Although we learned some things that helped us with our study of the pear decline prob lem in the Rogue valley, there was nothing there radically new to us," Cordy said Fri day. "Pooling of such infor mation, however, is always helpful." The state of Washington seems to be having graft un ion difficult in its pear trees which researchers blame as the major cause of decline, he said. Representatives of the University of California were also present to discuss their decline problem, Cordy said. Results of Study Results of the study made In the Rogue valley so far were reported to the Califor nia agricultural scientists who DO I T THIS KEEP COOL With a New Westinghouse AAobilaire Conditioner ROLLS EVERYWHERE cools any room you're in! t . . left you boat the heat all day long!

Information will prob ably be exchanged between the University of California researchers and those in the Rogue valley, Cordy said. The decline problem here is more complicated, Cordy said, than that of Washing ton's. The Rogue valley prob lem involves a virus infection and a graft union problem re lated to culture. Some soil fungus has been discovered working on orna mental plants, Cordy ex plained. Some of the same trouble has been found in pear orchards, the horticultural agent said. Although cultural methods used were not discov ered as detrimental earlier they did favor the compara tive recent development of soil fungus, Cordy said. The decline problem also in volves the improper use of water and fertilizer, he added. Several local orchards have shown material Improvement through use of new practices recommended by the research team here. However, in Wash ington trees with the graft decline have never recovered, he noted.
