Fondren's ability with the put

from his score. He had elected to
play safe for birdie on the 18th
instead of trying for an eagle,
and had he been more careful on

Manager George Evans of the

states that there were Increased

Juice at the cannery last week.
More favorable weather has in
creased receipts of tomatoes. To-
mato juice from yellow tomatoes
grown under contract is being
canned, as well as red tomatoes
which are bought from any farm
ers who wish to market them
through the cannery.
Buying days at the cannery are
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday from s to 2 o'clock,
and Saturdays from 8 to 10
o'clock. Manager Evans cautioned
growers to make sure that their
tomatoes are fully ripened be-
fore bringing them to the can
merry. Tomatoes that have grown
to full size, but will not color on
the vine, can be ripened by pick
ing, Tipping off the stem and
! laying on board or concrete in a
cool place with stem downward
he said.
Mr.. Evans also cautioned grow
ers to be careful not to bring the
cannery any tomatoes with cuts
Or other broken places in the
skin. He explained that govern
ment regulations are extremely
strict as to tomatoes which might
be infested with the vinegar gnat.
The gnat lays eggs in small
breaks in the tomato skin, and
scalding will not kill them. For
this reason. only whole and fully
ripened tomatoes can be packed
at the cannery.
The tomatoes. yellow tomato
juice, green beans and blackber-
ries put up at the cannery are
sold under the Federation's own
label through its marketing de-
partment to the Western North
