Died At the family residence. In Brownsboro, May 31, James K. Bell, aged about 55 years. He leaves a wife and several children, who are all about grown. Mr. Bell had been In poor health for several months and his death was not a surprise to his family or friends. He was a man who was highly respected by those who knew him. The same day. May 31, Mr. McDon ald, another old pioneer, passed away near Brownsboro, quite sudden ly, having been sick but a tew days. He is supposed to have been over 70 years of age, but I have no way to get the facts. His remains were In terred In the Brownsboro cemetery last Tuesday. Last Friday your correspondent took a trip to Ashland to attend the annual meeting of the Congregation al association and on my arrival found that body at work planning for future work. Among those who wore In attendance was Rev. H. N. Smith, superintendent ot the Sunday school work in Oregon; Rev. A. A. Stlllman ot Eugene, H. B. Plnkerton, Mrs. 7. A. Llpp, Mrs. Gillette, Rev. A. F. Fulsom of Forest Grove, Mr. and Mrs. George H. Hlnes of Port land, secretsry of the Oregon Histor ical society; Rev. C. F. Clapp of For est Grove, now state evangelist of the Congregational church; Rev. A. E. BradBtreet ot Hubbard, E. C. Oak-. ley ot Oregon City, P. 8. Knight ot Salem, Rev. H. M. Lenney and H. H. Hlroff of Berkeley, Cal.; and Dr. J. E. Walker, who has been a mission-' ary In China for 28 years. The serv- Ices were well attended and the ut most harmony prevailed. Rev. Mr. Green, the pastor of the Congrega tional church In Ashland, and his wife seem to be very popular and the attendance at the regular church services, Sunday school and the Un ion league all showed their popular ity. Arrangements were made to sup ply some of the places In this county that have been only partially cared for and the work was given a new In spiration. The preaching and lec tures were exceptionally good and ev ery one seemed to feel as though they had come to the right place to have a good time. 'The stereoptlcon lecture, showing the work having been done by the missionaries In India, was a grand success and those who attended the series of meetings will have some thing to think ot for a long time.

The LOCal Market The first of the week found the pruuu marset iioerauy suppiiea I""""". im ieaa- Ing descriptions of miscellaneous vegetables, new arrivals being up to me average ana me carry-over irom last week large. Rhubarb and peas were firm, features and new arriv als of string beans sold it slightly higher, prices, while squash, aspara gus and carrots were easy with prices pointing downward. Potatoes were 1 weak for both new and old stock, the arrival of news being flight. Business in eggs and dairy prod- uce w" of unuy lar8 propor- ;t,on, ,or Monday, as retail trades- men had allowed their stocks to run very low during the last of the week and were obliged to purchase more freely than usua lin consequence. The increased trading waB offset by liberal arrlvala of all three descrip tions and the only Improvement In valuea was a slight advance In extra eggs. Business In fresh fruits started off with a fair show of activity. Straw berries and early arrivals of the other berries sold readily at good prices, but the quotations for crated stock still had a wide range as to size and style of package. Citrus fruits were unchanged, there being nothing new to report In that depart ment aside from the arrival of a shipment of navel oranges. The poultry market had little of Interest to offer, opening rather quiet after the holiday and Monday being always a dull one for poultry, any way. Fnncy hens were In better de mand and prices hardened a trifle, but broilers showed little or no lm- fprovement. The demand is a par- ticular one and seeks fat fryers, young roosters or large hens, of which there Is little or none received. Present receipts consist too entirely of medium or old hens and the trade Is pretty well tired of them. A grocery man said yesterday: "Notwithstanding the heavy fruit crops, we do not look for an exces sively heavy pack of canned fruits, 'as the financial scare of last fall has evidently resulted In bringing about a most conservative course on the part of large buyers. The result of this Is already seen In the fact that fruit canners are not In o position to name prices on crops excepting for a limited quantity. We believe that a number ot canners will be unable to pack on account of not being able to obtain the necessary financial as sistance. This Is a problem that Is facing many of the canners through out the state, and notwithstanding the heavy fruit crop, It Is our opin ion that the output will likely be curtailed. "All indications point to the fact that the heavy purchasers In the East are going to buy on the hand-to-mouth policy, and this will undoubt edly take away the speculative fea ture ot the business. The same ap plies to the dried fruit trade, which ordinarily uses the largest quantity ot the fresh fruit crops. This trade Is for the time being thoroughly de moralised, and It remains to be seen whether the cheap prices will stim ulate business In a large way, or whether the buyers will pursue an ultra-conservative course, which seems quite likely. From present In dications the buyers of thise goods propose to force the producer and manufacturer to carry the goods from this year Into next, excepting what buyers need for immediate re quirements. The result will be that It will take millions of dollars to carry the products of Oregon. The dried fruit packer, therefore, will be unable to carry the goods, and It may devolve upon the producer to dry his own fruit, and carry It until the trade requires It. This will cause an outlay on the producer's part of money for labor and other In cidental expenses, and unless the pro ducer Is financially fixed to carry this load he will be faced by a se rious problem."

From th 8uMet the booklet la a .hing of beauty and will no doubt be a joy forever to those whom It will undoubtedly Induce to come to Medford. Not alone Is the presswork upon the booklet ot a high order, but the material contained In the booklet Is ot a nature that will Induce home Beekers to turn their attention to Medford. The truth is told and In a most entertaining manner. The. booklet contains a large map show ing the different routes to Medford and all over the map are hands which point out the way. All roads lead to Medford. In the Introduction, William Mc Murray, the general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific lines In Or egon, says: "Vice-President Fairbanks, while on a recent visit to the West, termed Oregon 'The Land of Opportunity.' "The climatic conditions that char acterize the state, the fertility of Its soli. Its deposits of precious metals, Its magnificent forests, its Immense water power that can be made avail able, its proximity to the Orient, and the vast possibilities which will be opened for It by Irrigation, make those who have given the matter even a superficial consideration enthusi astic as to the future of this great state, and prove the above, character ization a mild expression. The 'chief theater ot evenu In the world's great hereafter' Is to be on the shores and Islands of the Pacific. Or egon Is one ot the states that Is thus placed In a position of extraordinary strategic Importance. On account of this, tt teems with opportunities for energetic, progressive men, and every consideration points to a very rapid Increase during the next few years In the population of the state. It Is one of the few sections ot America that represents a virgin field of won derful possibilities for men and cap ital. "The Interest of the Southern Pa cific company In the development and upbuilding of Oregon Is the rea son for the publication of this little booklet. In presenting it for the earnest consideration of homeseek- ers, the Southern Pacific company does so, knowing that it can heartily recommend the Rogue River valley to their careful attention. The state ments made In this booklet can be relied upon as accurate, and corre spondence Is solicited from those in any part ot the country who may de sire further Information about the Rogue River valley or any part of Oregon. If Intending homeseekers will communicate with the under- sighed or with any of the names given in the latter part of this book let, full Information will be Immedi ately and cheerfully furnished them, and every facility rendered In order that they may reach their destination with ease. We shall also be glad to wire the Medford Commercial club ot the departure of any homeseeker for that section, and endeavor In other ways to render the journey pleasant and profitable." There were 30,000 copies ot the booklet printed. Of these, 10,000 are to be given to the Commercial club for distribution and 20,000 cop- lea will be distributed by the South ern Pacific. So Need of Suffering from Rheuma tism. It Is a mistake to allow any one to suffer from rheumatism, as the pain can always be relieved, and In most cases a cure effected by apply ing Chamberlain's Liniment. The re lief from pain wblch it affords Is alons worth many times Its cost. It makes sleep and rest possible. Even In cases ot long standing this lini ment should be used on account of the relief which It affords. Do not be discouraged until you Lave given it a trial. For sale by Chat. Strang.
