Ysleta is now the center OF one Of
the biggest pear harvests in the

ern shipping and packing apparatus
Knocked down boxes, made uy the Fl
FasO Milling company, are assembled
and carried in gravity shutes 70 the
packers and s0rters, who work along
slow belts carrying the fruit
Worms Scarce, Even in Culla-
Sorting is done very carefully. ANY
pear with the slightest imperfection
is cIassed as a Gull and sold as such,
but the crop is so fine that a worm IS
scarce. even among the culls. Each
pear is carefully wrapped in tissue
paper before IL is packed in the box
The final touch on each box is the
pasting OF the label, announcing the
brand as -datador" and showing that
the fruit came from Isleta, Texas, in
the FL Paso valley
On Market About AuE. I.
The plant is operated by the FL
PasO Valley Bartlett Pear association,
a cooperative organization. Of which
George Pendeu is president and T. T.

GENTLY for canning purposes. At that
time the fruit that is too ripe for
