GOLD HILL NEWS.
A serious fire was narrowly avert
ed last Saturday morning in Merrltt
& Co.'s general store In this city. A
lighted match had been accidentally
t was discovered the flames were
crawling rapidly toward the roof.
Parties In the store were soon busy
and the flames were extinguished be
fore any damage was done.
A fit subject for the action of the
boosters of Gold Hill would be the
task of advertising the fishing of this
section from a sportsman's stand
point. It Is safe to say that there Is
no better fishing in any stream In
the United States than there is along
Rogue river at this point, yet there
has never been anything done by the
people of this section to advertise it.
Was It widely known, it Is safe to
say that hundreds of people would
visit our little town every summer,
merely for the purpose of fishing
in this river. Hotels, restaurants.
lodging houses and in fact every
branch of business in the town would
prosper from these pleasure-seekers.
Why do we not look after these
things? Not along the fishing, but
hunting aa well, is excelled In very
few places. Gold Hill could be made
into a summer resort of the first,
kind if our people were willing to
work to that end.

Tomato-growing has proved to 'ie
very profitable In Rogue River v I-
ley. A cannery has been establisl -d
at Grants Pass to care for the crop
and the acreage will be double that
of last year. This vegetable-fruit :irs
come into use almost entirely within
the paBt half-century. It has b.nn
developed by cultivation from the
bright little "love apples," so called
yellow and red, round and pear
shaped, which were grown as orna
ments to the garden border by our
great-grandmothers and which the
children were warned not to touch,
as they were poisonous to the
smooth, bright, large and toothsome
product grown by the ton and found
upon the tables of rich and poor
alike the year round. The yield,
when properly cultivated, is from 20
to 40 bushels to the acre, and the
season In Rogue River valley lasts
from August until November for tne
fresh product and tbe year round for
tht canned product the country over.
