Guthrie, have purchased the Ashland Coal company's holdings, east of Ashland three miles, with the ma chinery on the property, and have also leased nearly 1000 acres of land adjoining the 80 acres controlled by the coal company, and will dovelop the coal prospects found upon the property. They have made careful examina tions and had tests of the coal made by government experts, who have pronounced It high-grade bituminous coal. Mr. Earl, who Is a son of an Illinois coal operator, has gone East to arrange for the beginning of work, It Is said, and for the shipment of a lot of machinery to use in the mines here. Several hundred feet of tunneling has been made by the Ash land company, composed of local citizens, but lack of capital necessi tated a shutting down of operations. With the prospects looking better, development work proceeded. LION FARCEUR. Will stand for the season of 109 at Osenbrugge's barn, near Woods Lumber company. In Medford, Or.

Dean, the pioneer school teacher of the Wagner Creek val ley,' west of Ashland, who a number of ycarB since dropped the peda gogue's rod and took up the more independent lire of a farmer and horticulturist, In that fertile region. Was In Ashland yesterday. The sale few days ago of the remaining 58 acres of the H. Coleman place. In his neighborhood to Mr. Powers, a new resident of the Talent section, for a consideration of some $6500, served to remind him that It was the last of the old Goddard donation land claim which has been divided and subdivided until H now supports eight or more families, showing the rapid development of this region and Its devotion to small holdings of or chard and garden lands. Mr. Dean himself confines his en ergies to 1 4 acres and has become a most enthusiastic and Intensive horticulturist, ' with ' the greatest faith In the future of the Rogue River valley as a rich and prosper ous fruit section. Orchard and gar den and alfalfa occupy his 14 acres, with peaches and apples predominat ing In the orchard, all promising 1 bumper yield this season. Mr. Dean has a penchant for applea and boasts of no less than 30 different varieties thriving In the orchard The fact that his last harvest showed less than one wormy apple In i thousand speaks well for the effect Ive methods which the vigilant hor tlcultnrlst may employ against the omnipresent pests.

Dow et al., I He la right In hi native element when he Is In the vicinity ot mills and lumber camps, copper mines and orchards, and he also finds the climate ot Oregon far su perior to that of his native state, being devoid of the long, cold win ters. Here he finds the undeveloped resources such as made his state great, only on a larger scale, and there Is no one quicker than he to recognize In this section bright pros pects for the future. Of course, the celery that made Kalamazoo famous or the breakfast food brand that ts synonlmous with the name of Battle Creek are not to be found In very large quantities In this section, but there Is plenty of opportunity for fu ture development In that line. Almost without exception the na tive of Michigan who comes to the Rogne River valley never returns, but becomes Imbued with the boost er spirit and puts forth his best ef forts to Induce his friends "back home" to come to Southern Oregon, the land of the big red apple and pine trees that would make tho for mer monarchs of tho forests of tho peninsula state look like saplings. All former Mlchlganders will do well to register with Mrs. Conrad, and thus get In touch with each other. Southern Oregon Is the Wil- verlno's paradise, where, as we havt stated, he ts in his native element. There are many here. There Is room for many more. " Children " Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORI A DIED.
