A WRITE-UP MEDFORD IN Brief Mention of Our City's Beautiful Homas Where Located and by Whom Owned Fruit Orchards, Berries and Vege tables in Abundance and Flowers Galore, A Pen Picture of the Most' Beautiful and Thriving City in South ern Oregon Surrounded by Rich Mineral and Agricul tural Land and Unsurpassed Fruit Farms. There i, without a doubt, not! another city in Oregon possessed of more beautiful homes than is the city of Medford. Their owners, with scarcely an exception, pride themselves in keeping in the very finest shape the lawns and flower gardens while the vegetable gardens are made wondercus productive by careful attention, and the berry patches and fruit trees are bowed low under the weight of ripening fruit. In view of the fact that these things exist it is no more than fair that we make an impartial and sep arate mention of each and every one of them. To do this we must visit every place of residence a task which will require weeks to accomplish. We will therefore pre pare a column or thereabouts of this write-up for each week. We follow the example of Uncle Sam in num bering bis land and begin at the northeast corner. WM. EDWARDS. The first stopping place for a few minutes chat which we make is at the fine house of Mr. Win. Edwards. His plai-e is situmed on tht esten-i-ion of A street, or more proper, on Ihn old county road. There is prob ably not n more beautiful spot in all Medford than is this street, from Seventh street north. On each side of the street are growing huge oak trees whose branches not only give delightful shade to the several resi dences but the traveler is as well made glad by the cool, refreshing shade neaih their outspreading boughs. But to return to our sub ject your reporter will be excused if he diverges from ihe line if work mapped out, ax the fact exists that in many localities in beautiful Med ford even a cold hearted, unscrupu lous reporter is liable to enchant ment as he wanders amid the gran deur of so lovely a citv. Mr. Gd- wards has a fine plat uf land of eight acres upon which he grows all varieties of fruits, berru-s and veg etables. He has a hne, large resi dence and surrounding it is a most beautiful llower garden where roses J of different varieties bloom in pro fusion the year round. Mr. E. came to Jackson county from East lennesee in lbto and bas since; been a resident of this county. His ! vocation is that of gardening and fruit growing and the vocation is very cleverly suited to the gentle man. c. F. LEWIS. A snort walk to the south and we arrive at Mr. C. F. Lewis' neat, cosy residence. This gentleman has one acre of ground which is so densely planted to fruit, berries and vegeta bles as to make it a source of much profit to its owner. Mr Lewis is a machinist by trade and is now en gaged in operating the mining ma chinery of the Comstock of Oregon mine; He is a miner of experience, having operated extensively in that line in Central America. O. W. CRYSTAL. Another fine tract of land with buildings to correspond is the three- acre home of U. W. Crystal. Mr. Crvstal is a blacksmith by trade but finds fruit and berry culture more desirable -and profitable vo cation, hence his undivided atten tion is given to marketing the fruits of his well cared for plat. These people claim the distinction of be ing one of the very first families to locate in Medford nine vears ago and their son Roy is entitled to the honors of being the first child born in the city. Thev have lived in Jackson county 21 years. T. O. SPANGLER. Situated in this same locality is the residence of Mr. T. d. bpangler The gentleman owns one acre of cround which about two month3 ago he purchased lrom Jlr. o. f. Congor. Mr. S. is a gager at the Medtord distillery, a vocation which he has followed with credit to him self in various eastern states for sev eral years. He has been a resident of Medford for two years and was this last March appointed, under the democratic administration, to the position he now holds. His re cent home uurchase is finely loca ted and when Mr. Spangle shall have fitted it up to his liking it will bo a place to bo proud of. Peru, Illinois, is their former home. 3. i.. wiai.E. One of the Beveral quite exten sive farm owners who reside in Medford is Mr. J. L. Wigle. He has two acres of land surrounding a fine, large dwelling which is put out to fruits, berries and vegetables, while his front yard abounds in flowers. The gentleman follows farming as a vocation. Abuut three-fourths of a mile orest of Med ford he has a thirty-six acre tract of land and cne mile to the east of the city is another farm of twenty six acres. Mr. W. moved from Ilalsey, Oregon, to Medford last August. Mr. S. L. Jessup has sev eral acres of the above lands plan ted this year to tomatoes, water melons and sweet potatoes. HENRY ELLS. The next place we visit is that of Mr. Henry Ells. These people came to Medford last October from Martinez, California. Their 'place of residence is owned by I. J. Phipps. Mr. E. gains a livelihood for him self and family by. farm work. a. w. BISH. Adjoining Mr. Ells' place on A street is th.U of Mr. AAV. Bish. Mr. B. is a carpenter and brick mason by trade; formerly from California ; has resided in Jackson county twenty years. The property where on these people reside belongs to Mr. West. Mr. Bish has steady employment at his trade and is an able workman. james jones, Formerly of North Platte, Neb., also resides on A street As is well known, all North Plait boys are familiar with the lariat, and Mr. Jones is no exception. lie can wield this implement with an apt ness which would pive the blush to Apache George. The gentleman is a carpenter by trade and now plies that vocation. 1. J. purpps. There is probably no more ex tensive farm owner who lives in Medford than is the above gentle man. The city residence of Mr. I. J. Phipps is situated between Filth and Sixth and A and B streets and comprises three-fourths of a block Five hundred acres of land about Medford is marked with his owner ship. He has sixty acres joining Medford on the north and east, 320 acres a short distance east and 160 acres near Central 1 oint. X he property has fine, commodious buildings and a general appearance of prosperity prevails. Mr. Phipps has lived in Oregon twenty years and came to the coast from Indiana. Aside from farm property he owns a goodly number of business build- tigs in Medtord. DR. B. F. ADKIXS. There is not a better or more fav orably known man in this part of the vallev than is Dr. B. F. Adkms His residence and surroundings on A street are a picture of a quiet, pleasant and happy home. There are but three acres of land but it is so nicely arranged as to make it a place of beauty and so cheerful as to be inviting to all who pass Sev eral large oaks add to the beauty of the place and neath "the shade of these are a tennis court and croquet grounds where many of our towns people while away hours in pleasant sports. Fruit and berries abound hereabouts. J he doctor has acres of land three-fourths of a mile south of Medford; sixty -acres three miles north and east; two and one-half acres of town property and two or three business blocks on Main street. Mr. Adkins has resid ed in Medford nine years and came to this place from Indianapo lis, Indiana. F. Q. MEDYNSKI. One of the prettiest residence in architectural design on this street is the one occupied by Mr. it . Q. Medynski and owned by Mrs. Typ- ton, of California. Mr. M. is one of Medford's most prominent business men being one of the members of the Medford Distillery and Refining company, an incorporate company doing business on north C street. The cost of this plant, including stock on hand, is about $50,000. Mr. M. was formerly a resident of J La Salle, Illinois, and has resided E- enyaki. ' On A street and facing the north ion Sixth are three fine lots owned bv Mr. J. E. Envart and upon - w'hich are built two small but neat cottages. One of these will be oc cupied by Mr. Enyart's parents when they 6hall arrtve in Medford from Indiana. Mr. Enyart has been a resident of Medford for four years and is now cashier in the . Jackson County Bank. He is for merly from Logansport, Indiana, where for several years he waa suc cessfully engaged in the mercantile business. C. I.

On the corner of Sixth and A street is quite a nice dwelling house and is owned by Mrs. Anderson, of the Willamette valley, and is kept for rent. - TAYLOR PAYNE. On the corner of Seventh and A streets is the very pleasant resi dence owned by Mr. John Barnura, of Ashland, but occupied by Mr. Taylor Payne. SPENCER CHILDERS. Adjoining the above property on the east is the very cotnfortstJe home of Mr. Spencer Childers. The gentleman owns three lots and has the same well planted to fruit and berries, while in the front yard are growing flowers in great quantities and varieties.
