EUGENE INS F Fino Contest Goes to Willammette Valley Team on a Fluke Eugene Eleven Superior on Punts, Medford - on Team Work Score, B-0. (By Grid Iron.) In the ltot football gamo of the season Medford was defeated by Kti- genc. Score, G to 0, ' Eugene's score came in the firt nnnrior on a fluko after Medfo'd hail hold tho heavier team for two 'downs, on the forty-yard line. Ku- geno punted. White made a pi tick v ' attempt to catch the ball at full speed, but it bounded away from bin; and squarely into the bnnds of the fleet left end, Discaux, who bad a clear field and but ten yards in front of him to the sonl line. Goal was kicked. Dospito this discouraging start Jlcdford outplayed Eugene in tho fiit .pmrter. The local lino held like steel and tfmo and ngnin the Eu gene backs were caught behind the lino with the bnll. The second ouat- ter wnfc the same, Medford hnuns the bw;t of il in everything but the exchange of punts. The third qunr ter was even up, and it was not until tho finnl period that Eugene became threatening. In tho last few min utes they worked their first success ful forward pass and two end run-., but when they approached the Med ford goal the line stiffened and threw tho blue and white back forji loss. Medford played real footbail throughout and so did Eugene. Twice no local boys hurled their heavier opponents back for loss when the ball was within the shadow of the goa' The defense of both teams was ex ceptionally strong and there wns an entire nbsonce of any rough or ques tionable playing. It is to be hoped that the Eugene game will become an annual one, as no more gentlemanly lot of players has been seen on the local field. For Medford, Isaac was the tower of strength. He was in rvery ploy nnd on tho defense distinguished himsolf. It is doubtful if there is a belter qunrterback on a high school team in the state. Ware played his coiifci&tenlly strong game and wns one of the mainstays on tho defence. The ends, Bcveridge nnd McDonald, broke up everything thnt came their wnv vnnd spoiled many an attempted for ward pass by Eugene. To each in dividual mombor of the line great credit is due. Thoy fought hard nil lho time, and when tho supremo de- innnd came responded nobly. , Halph Burgess showed great form lihrougliout, tho gamo and mussed 'things up for Eugene regularly. 4 For Eugene, Wagers, Gray, Viclc crs and Disoaux were stars. Wagon. 'is surprisingly fleet and Gray is a great lino plungor. Summed up, Eugene had it on Med ford in tho punting nnd on individual work iu the back fiold. Medford had Jho best team work and defense. It Mas a great gamo and credit is due lo winners nnd losers for Bporthiunn liko playing. i D j L OIUOAGO, 111., Nov. 20.

ROM MEDEORD SOLVING THE PROBLEM. EVERY fruit grower s well s every farmer in the Rogue river valley. should realize the advantage of irrigation. It makes no difference how successful tho non irrigated orchard is, or how prosperous the dry farm has been, irrigation increases the success of the one and the prosperitvwf the other. Irrigation is a form of crop insurance against failure. Properly applied, it not only del's tho return certain. It overcomes the seasons defi ciencies and multiplies the soil's productiveness. Most of the more successful orchards in tho valley, those that yield year in and year out, which have good crops in an off year like the present, are irrigated or chards. Those that are not would make a more favorable showing if they were. There are few soils more fertile, few climates more advantageous for fruit aud produce production than that enjoyed in tho Rogue river valley. But to realize these possibilities irrigation is an essential. It is perhaps unfortunate that irrigation is not abso lutely necessary here, that good crops and money making yields can often be secured without irrigation, and are thus secured. It makes the soil cultivator slow to admit the necessity and value of water, lie can aud does make money without irrigation, but he would make more with it. Tho Rogue river valley must depend upon intensive cultivation. The tiller of the soil must get the most out of it. lie miisFiiiakc ten acres yield as much as ten times the quantity of scratched land elsewhere. To do this, he must have water. Farmers and fruit growers are slow to grasp the sit uation. Cooperation seems to be a minus quantity with them. They do nothing to who have water flowing past their doors ret use to use it, not only injuring themselves thereby, but the valley also. Growcis in each section should unite. "While the young orchards are coming into bearing some kind of a crop can be raised to make the place self sustaining. It is in the choice of such a crop and in the marketing of the output that cooperation is essential. In order to market any such subsidiary crop, it is essential to be able to ship in quantity. Community co operation supplies this desired quantity, no matter what the crop is, whether of vegetables, potatoes, beans, straw berries or other fruit. For over a year The Mail Tribune has been clamoring for a public market for the benefit of both producers and Consumers. As a result, the city council will establish such an institution. But the farmers themselves have taken no part in the agitation, and have been powerless to take effective part, because they did not cooperate and were not organized. They have to sell their crops in a catch-as-catch-cau fashion for the same reason. Farmers and fruit growers, like every one else, must work out their own salvation. To reap the most from their soil opportunities, they must irrigate, and to harvest their products most successfully they must cooperate. Upon the way they solve these problems depends not only their own success but the future of the valley. If there is a magic word to unlock the door of pros perity to the producer, it is "irrigate," and if there is another to enable him to reap the result of his industry, it is "cooperate." ibid yet how few of our producers pay any attention to either. And yet until these facts are grasped, the bal ance of trade will be against us, and it will cost us more to live than We make.
