I'll bet a half of all I've got Half of your words were, hot." 'gee, -Its ON0I3 ngaiii tho Portliuul Telegram is dismissing Mod ftml. It is a subject well worthy of discussion. Mod Ford is distinctive among Oregon towns and is at once the pride, puzzle and dispair of her sister cities. The Telegram offers us, some more advice (advice is the only thing .Mod ford over gets from Portland) much of it good, regarding the development of truck farming, No one is more aware of (his need than the people of this section but tho fact remains that fruit raising attracts the settler and truck farming does not. Wven the cities of the coast depend largely hpou the foreigner for their market produce and the coast cities almost exclusively so. Nor has Medford wiped out its agricultural area by planting 80,000 acres of orchard. A portion of this or chard area is reclaimed brush and timber land, never be fore cultivated. .Much of it was heretofore only spas modieally tilled. Orchards occupy only a relatively small portion of the vallev. More land is being farmed today than ever in the valley s history but there is three 01 four times the nonulation to sunnort. Modtord s only resource. The Nor is fruit raising Jack London Is on his way here. Flno shauce to learn all about "prl mltlvo'man" and "nbyssmal brutes." It was fo hot In Boston the other day that tho pollco arrested a man for wearing an overcoat. Would they shoot a man for wearing ear muffs? Miss Oso Lonely says sonio men are known by tho company they keep and some don't keep company. A philosopher, according to some. Is a man who has a corner on the days to tell us to smile. In Ceylon 6 cent pieces are square. How about tho meals? .( , Old Man Umph says: "Menny a man what wud like to hitch his wag gin tor a star hasn't a waggln or hcrness either." Kcd Letter Days. On looking backward one recalls At times some great event, Such as tho tlmo his hens laid eggs Or when he paid his rent Dallas News. To. looking forward why not turn? One's apt to seo ahead Tho. time when men shall not pay " x rent ' Tho hens will pay Instead. 1 "t YESTERDAY'S SCORES. I . .. -A. X. ., j National. . At Now York New York n largest sugar pine timber belt in the world is at her door. Over $35,000,000 in gold has been yielded by her mines, which are still producing. Great veins of coal seam her hills. Extensive, copper mines await but transportation. Minerals of many kinds are scattered in commercial quan tities through the mountains. Immense deposits of iron, lime, marble, and granite await but the touch of capital to sustain large payrolls, but they wait in vain as far as Portland capital is concerned. Cicographicallv, Mcdford is the logical place for a citv between Portland and Sacramento, tor a distributing center for Southern Oreiron. and Northern California. It is the terminus of the Oregon Trunk and will be of other roads and it has the energy, the spirit, the initiative nee essary to fulfill its destiny. It is true we need market gardeners and truck farmers, but we also need our great natural resources developed, our scenic wonders made accessible and a score of other things just as badly and Medford will get them all in time. Meanwhile heed the Telegram's advice which is as follows: "Under the circumstances we know of no more invit ing field for the truck farmer than Medford. Its people are willingly paying a high price for the food products which they import. These products should be raised at home, and if anything like the same price is paid for them, truck farmers will soon get well to do in that val ley. Attention of the Medford people, in our judgment, has been too completely absorbed in apple and pear rais ing. They are now seeing only part of their problem. 11 a good proportion ot the money now being shipped out for foodstuffs were only kept at home, as it should and can be, Medford money would be more generally scat tered than it is, and we have no doubt the banks would hail with pleasure the' added tone of health thus develop ed in municipal conditions. Hand in hand with the de velopment of the finest business should go the de velopment of the agricultural and fruit fanning interests. In this way some of the big existing leaks will be stopped and the great problem ahead of Medford will be found much easier of solution."

THE Grants Pass Courier has evidently decided thai Medford 's eo-opcration is not wanted to make the mining congress a sueeess and is doing all in its power to stir up discord and ill will between the two cities. No single thing could have been done to chill the en thusiasm of Medford for the congress and frost the spirit of co-operation as much as the Courier's maliciously false accusations regarding the Fourth of July celebration here, printed elsewhere. This is not the first time that the Courier has shown its pettiness and its captions carping spirit. In a thous and little "ways this querulous newspaper has striven to fan and keep alive the old enmity and jealously that ex isted in times long since gone by and which for years the progressive element in both cities has striven to stifle, that harmony may reign. The Courier's attack is so unfair andso untriie as to be nnwortlry of attention, were it not the culmination of a series of sneers against the "Bear Creek metropolis," and comes at a time whe,n Medford had striven her ut most to give a creditable celebration. The Courier does not represent the sentiment of Grants Pass where its utterances have little weight and are not taken seriously. Clms.

Huuck lias contributed mi article, in the shape of a conven ient iMjcket folder thut throws fur ther light uppu the subject of the public library. Mr. Knuck is the li brarian at Grand Jtapids, Michigan, The article is full of food for thought, and brings tho library before tho public eye, as an educational insti tution of great public utility and op portunity. To iniolo: "Have you over thought of continuing your edu cation, getting moro knowledge, att goibiug new ideas, and enlarging your experience from the experience of. others, while you are at work? "There is in this city an educa tional institution that enables you to do this very thing, whatever busi ness, trade or calling you may fol low. "The schools tench us to read and write and a lot of things we know, but wo lon't stop luurping to know things when wo leave school, for tho gaining of knowledge is u continuous performance. Continue yotul edu cation through the library. "Why not give several hours a week to tho connected reading of books and papers that are worth while? "It will afford the librarian great pleasure to talk this over with von whether you'ure using the library or Jiqt." What Mr. Rntiek says is equally true of the opportunities uf forded by the public library of Medford, ami of tho spirit of willingness there ' in this institution to serve the puhlic needs as fully as possible. Moro mid more in tho purchasing of the new books, special needs urn being considered. For ilio student of sociology, there nro to be found ujon tho librury'u shelves such works as "The llcast," by Judgo Lindsey; "Twenty Years tit Hull House" and "Tho Spirit of Yoiitlj In tho City Street," by .lane Ad dams: mid "Ifow Americans Aro Governed," by Crittenden Alarrioll, i To be "on the square is so essen tial in our life that only those who practice it can hope to win out.
