The annual jinks of the Commercial Club hold Tuesday iiight was the most important meeting the club has held since it initiated the Crater Lake road bill. The meeting jvas made memorable, not only by increasing the mem bership to 562, making it the largest commercial body in the northwest (outside the large cities) but also by inagur ating the only practical solution of the good roads problem yet presented to the people of Oregon, the starting of an initiative petition submitting to the voters at the next gen oral election a constitutional amendment permitting coun ties to issue bonds for road building purposes. Pull a thousand Medford citizens were present, the largest number of men ever gathered under one roof in Medford, and the project was launched with the unanimous approval of those present. The club proposes to place this petition in the hands of every commercial club in the state and ask their active support, not only in securing the nec essary signatures but also in conducting the campaign of education necessary to pass the amendment next Novem ber. Heretofore good roads meetings in Oregon have spent the time in discussing how to build roads, talking of the ne cessity of good roads and in hiring lecturers to educate the public to the necessity of good roads. Discussions about the methods of building good roads is time wasted. building has become a science, and there is no longer any argument or discussion profitable. The government of the United States has experts employed, whose business it is to build goods roads co-operate with any section desiring to improve its roads, and upon a request such an expert will be sent to take charge of road building in any locality. Not only will the government co-operate, but the National Good Road Association will also send its experts and ma terially assist in every way possible. All education necessary of the necessity of good roads, has been supplied by the experience of Oregon farmers with the present roads and the annual loss which they sus tain through bad roads. This has been education enough to convince even the dullest witted. Most farmers now realize that good roads are not only for automobilists, who use them occasionally for pleasure, but for the fruit grower and the farmer who hauls his product to market and uses them every day in the year. ' Toio. Or., Jan, 25. Medford Com- - This cutting of the Gorden knot that ties the hands ofimer(!inl Club. Medford. Or.: Unnni, good road builders in Oregon by the commercial club again proves to the state at large that Medford has not only the initiative but the common sense and progressiveness nec essary to meet all conditions and better not only their own locality, but people of the entire state, and cannot fail to convince anyone that the Medford spirit is bound to create Medford the midway metropolis.

Or, or, Will THE MODERN WAY. The up-to-date modem merchant figures upon adver tising expenses as he does upon his rent. It is a fixed charge and the size of the appropriation made is usually iigured as a certain percentage of the cross receints. For instance if a man does a $1000 worth of business a month he puts aside say 5 per cent or more of this amount -or $oU or more as advertising appropriation for the month, f JBB ana tins tixeri charge is covered in his per centage of pro Tho size of the appropriation depends altogether upon tne cias3 ot business conducted. Some houses are denend 'ent almost entirely upon their newspaper advertising foi their business, and other firms merely use it to supplement established trade. In cities merchants have found it nro fitablo in many cases, to move from a main street, secure cneaper rental elsewhere and make up the difference by . increasing the advertising appropriation. The man who has something to sell in Medford and of fers a bargain of any kind in the columns of the Mail Tri- 4 t . . ..V uune cannot tail to dispose or it providing there exists in .the, city a demand for the article, as this paper goes into .practically every home in Medford and in the surrounding towns, it mere is not the demand clever advertisrng will create tne demand.
