Then to clinch the productive qualities of this orchard land is published "Last year's records" of fruit growers, "whose average net profit was $1200 per acre for the season of 1909. And this list ol growers comprises YV. II. Norcross, Tronsoil & Guthrie, Mountain View orchard. John O. (lore, Rarrell orchard, W. 0. Estep, Snowy .Rutte orchard, S. L. Rennett and A. D. Helms, every one of them located in the Rogue river valley, but nowhere is the Rogue river vallev mentioned. Only unscrupulous, land promoters would resort to the surreptitious use of copyrighted photos and data com piled by the Med ford commercial club to deceive eastern investors into the belief that they are securing the same kind of orchard property, and that the cheap farming land they offer will produce such profits. Why do not these AVillamette valley promoters give Willamette valley apple records, if the land is such ideal orchard property? Orchards have been bearing for fifty veal's there, and it should not be necessary to appropriate the records and photos ol other sections without giving due credit. There is all the difference pi the world between the "1'Vuitdale" tract and those bearing orchards in proven districts, whose records are appropriated dif ference in soil, in climate, in elevation, in products, and productiveness, and the intending purchaser should under stand it. Not but that "Eruitdale" may prove, a profitable investment, but that the methods of deception practiced in unloading them upon a gullible public, this parading in borrowed plumage savors too much of the get-rich-quick methods of wild-cat fakirs.

THE use of a state boundary line as a basis upon which to base railroad freight rates is unique in the history of railroading. Yet this is the case with the Southern Pa cific, and is one of the causes of freight discrimination atrninst-Modford. .1 ust why this eusfxnn obtains, ho one seems to know At least at the hearing before the interstate commerce commission at Medford none of the Southern Pacific offi cials could give a satisfactorv answer. . Traffic officials testified that the freight rates north of the boundary line, as set forth in published tariffs, are 14 cents for three miles, and south of the line, are 5 cent for the same distance, jhat the same grade, and the same physical conditions govern on each side of th$ line. On another quoted rate, the cost of transporting first class freight for 18 miles in--Oalifounia is, 12 cents, as against 22 cents for the same distance in Oregon. And this is about the proportion that governs, though no watei .ttompctition can be pleaded in extenuation. r 'What is there so mHgical and mystical about this un seen noundary line, tliat it costs the people ot Oregon s lluarjyf AYho drew this magic circle that enables tin Southern Pacific to make a net profit in Oregon of $1,1.19, 119 a year, nearly f)0 per cent of its gross earnings. At any rate, it is up to Medford to dissolve the charn -r-and Medford is going to do it. THE SAVOY Madfanl't, reclusive Picture The atcr. Uttt Uaohsed Phote-ly5.
