M. CoIvIk Tell of Wontli-r-fill Outlook for City nml Vitlloy. (Ily Judgo W, M, Colvtg, President of the Medford Commercial Club,) In night yearn, or Junl an noon an iniwly.plutitril orchards comn Into bear ing, R,0V0 to 10,000 earn will bo rerjulred to transport tho fruit proditctn that will be offered for nhlpmnnt from Medford. During tho coming ncanon 1,000,000 peor mid applo trenn will bo planted In tho vicinity of Medford, 300,000 Acre Xrult I.nd, Thero urn 1,880,000 noren of land In Jack non County, and It would bo lnrgely a guc'N for hid to' nay how much of that area In capable of being planted to fruit, but of that nmount I cun nay pos itively that over 200,000 acres of tillable land I well adapted to pear mid ap ple. In addition to thin there Is a largo area that can ba mndb ttllabla and equally productive. The applo In n fruit that does not uccMd In countries having warm win ter, because If the nap 1 not sent down to th root of tha trees, the fruit al ways In mealy and stringy and I not a good commercial product. Wo nocd fronts and cold weather, but tho weath er must not ba too cold. Tho apple In not an extreme Northern nor a South ern fruit, but thrive In a well-denned temperate cllmata such as we havo In Jackson County, whore Irrigation Is not an essential to tho successful growing1 of tho finest quality of fruit. Xambrlnd Oood, Too. Situated In Jackson County thero Is also to bo found tho largest body of sugar-plno timber In tho world. Tho bulk of thl timber Ilea In the Upper lloguo Illvor Valley, and when It has been removed tho land will prove of great value for fruitgrowing purposes. The county t also rich ,ln water liower resources. It H, Towne, of a Now York copper syndicate, ban oxpendod moro than 11,000,000 In developing the lllue IHlgo copper mine, located on the headwstern of tho Applegate, 35 mile from Medford. Thl mlno la virtually a mountain of solid copper, and has been practically Inaccessible. The building of a railroad that will pass thl valuable property I now probable. Koa to Cross Xanr. . Tho Paclflo A Kostern railroad has been built fourteen mllen out of Medford and active construction work I being prosecuted. Wo have the assurance of Mr, Allen that the road wl'l bo built, not only to tho. mine, but ncross tho Cascades to an eastern con nection. Mr, Allen recently announced nt a meeting of our Commercial Club that whon ho had finished building the railroads ho had projected, tho people of Jackson County would havo a rnll- rond to tho Kost. This statement from tho builder of thl road Is taken by un to mean that ho will construct a line Hint will connect with tho Hill or Har rlman rond Into Central Oregon". I do not bellovo any other section of the stnto posuesses greater resources than aro to bo found In Jackson County. Wo aro not dependent on our agricultural Interest. Our timber, mining and horticultural resources are contributing their share to tho sub tantlal prosperity of tho entlro state. Msaford Boosters Abound. Medford Is a thoroughly cosmopoli tan city and contains an many boosters to tho square foot as uny other section of th state. Not long ago tho Com mercial Club decided to raise a public ity fund. In one afternoon between 1 nnd S o'clock wo raised 13,600 for that purpose, and within n few days tho fund was Increased to $8,400. Wo hnvo spent $1,000 n month In publicity work during tho past year. Our club ban a membership of 300, but wo oxpect to In creano this noon to 400. Based on tho school census, Medford hnn a popula tion of 7,800, An an ovldonco of tho general prosperity of tho county, I might refer to tho fact that tho pres ent assessed valuation or Jackson County property la $36,000,000. Soven yearn ago tha total of tho assensment roll was only $6,000,000. An Incroaso In assessable value of $31,000,000 In seven yearn wo regnrd as a record that defies duplication by any other county In tho ntate. Commenting on tho abovo ntatcmont, tho Portland Oregonlan nayn: A Happy land. Judge Colvlg does not oxaggcrnto tho advantages of tho Itoguo rtlver Valley. All ho nayn In pralso of Ita cllmato nnd productiveness Is true. The chances nro that much more might bo mild of tho same purport without over stating the fiiotn. Tho tlmo la nuro to como when tho ohnrmn of this fnvored region will bo celebrated throughout tho world, Nobody who lias pnsn.d a winter In Medford or Ashlnnd can for got tho bright nunnhlne, tho Inspiring prospect of tho country.
