75-ltfar Oldster Picks
Pears From High Tree
Twelve additional bushels of pears
are for sale in Bluffton this week be
i cause the terrors of scaling a 35-foot
tree means nothing to Med Murray,
retired 75-year-old contractor.
Younger persons picked the pears
from the lower half of the large
tree standing at the rear of the
property where Mr. and Mrs. Mur
ray live on North Jackson street.
They balked on attempting to get
the higher pears, however, and it
was at that point that Murray took
over. He used a 40-foot extension
ladder to get to the top of the tree,
and his job of picking was so thoro
he was willing to wager that not a
single pear remained, even at the
highest point.
Scaling heights is nothing new for
Murray, and he pointed out that
when he was working actively as a
painter he worked on the steeples of
practically every church in this area.
With fruit of all kinds extremely
scarce, Murray did not want the
pears to go to waste and he is sell
ing them for the cost of picking.
Willard Kyle, Athens county farmer,
estimates his crop yields have been in
creased 20 per cent since he began
strip farming 100 acres of his 600
acre farm.
