The average European consumes 45 pounds of apples a year and 17 pounds of pears. In the United States, the average individual con- sumes about 27 pounds of apples annually and close to 5 pounds of pears. This European fondness for fruit was revealed recently by Walter Mueller of the Swiss Federal Research Station at Wadenswil, Switzerland, a counterpart of the U.S. Depart- ment of Agriculture. Mr. Mueller is observing apple production in the United States on a 6-month leave of absence. The Swiss horticulturist has the fruit processing industry of the southeastern Pennsylvania counties. Working with him have been Dr. George M. Greene and associates of the Fruit Research Laboratory at Biglerville. The lab is operated by the agricultural experiment station at The Pennsylvania State University. In Switzerland, says. Mr. Mueller, cider and wine are used extensively at mealtimes. Swiss use of apples is divided equally between fresh fruit and apples processed into jui¢e and wine. As in the U.S., the amount of fruit consumed varies from year to year depending upon the crop and the market situation. Switzerland has two horti- cultural research stations, one to meet the needs of German- speaking citizens near Zurich, and the other at Lausanne for those who speak French. In addition, says Mr. Mueller, there is a research substation in the southern area, near the Italian border, for Swiss who speak Italian. Mr. Mueller believes his countrymen are about 10 years ahead of the United States in using dwarfing rootstocks for fruit trees. Seventy per cent of the apples produced in Switzer- land are now grown on dwarf and semi-dwarf trees.
