There li not nearly to good an ex hlblt of fruits, flowers and vege table at the Exhibition building thla season aa usual, thla undoubtedly because of the fact that the novelty has worn off to a certain extent, and again, everybody is so all-fired busy that they have little time for dress parade even too busy to dis play the products of their loll and It's a pity, too, that this condition exists Jtint at a time when such e great number of people are travel ing through the valley and are ever and always on the alert to catch a glimpse of the attractions of the va rious places through which they travel. An effort should be made on the part of those most Interested to the end that fresh flowers, fruit i and vegetables be kept coatlnntilly on exhibition there. The exhibits placed there are of too much im portance as an advertising feature to be treated lightly. FAVOUR (MM)I ItOAIIS. President Taft hos acnln Indlrat ed his Interest in good roads, the latest expression being elicited In connection with a movement for bet ter highways in Vlrglnin, says an ex change, this taking shape in nn Im mediate plau for a road from Wash ington to Richmond. In a letter on the subject, the president says: "1 regard this as part of the gen eral good roads movement In the country, and I have pleasure In say jng that there is no movement that I know of that will have a more di rect effect to alleviate the difficul ties and burdens of the fnrmcr's life, will stimulate the traffic and add to the general happiness of the people more than the establishment of good roads throughout the coun try. "I do not think that, because this may have been stimulated by peo ple using automobiles it is to be frowned upon, for, while persons ns jng automobiles are by no means the most (jnportnnt in the community, tho fact thnt their sharp Interest has focused tho attention of the public on tho movement entitles them to credit. "It have no doubt that within the authority which Is his, the secretnry of Agriculture will be glad to assist by recommendation and practical ad-: v;er th" methods to be pursued In j goo:! road building In Virginia." !

ELECTRICITY AID ' FRUIT CROWING Colonel Frank Ray, on behalf of the Rogue Klvcr Electric company, has offered a unique plant to the state horticulture department. Pro viding that the department will send an expert scientist here to superin tend experiments, they will donate CO acres of the finest irrigated land In the valley, furnish all the water, all necessary farm and house labor, furnish a house, supply all neces sary implements and electricity free, for the experiment of the effect of electricity on plant life. , There are three ways of using electricity, on plants and shrubbery. . 1 By arc lights. ' i 2 By direct current, i 3 By nitrogen, separated from the air by electricity. Itl Polar Iteglons. In the Polar regions It has been noticed that plant life, as soon as the sun begius to shine during the short summer Beacon, makes plaut life grow faster and more luxuriantly, as is proven by tho vegetctlon near the equator. , At Gold Ray dam Colonel Ray set out quite a few rose3 and trees on the hillside. Those under or near : th0 arc lights have grown wonder- mmt t gets at Gold Ray makes It proof against frost. I Safe From Damage. In orchards this would be almost Invaluable, lor many a sleepless night could be passed with no worry, knowing the fruit would bo safe I from damage. Then again, fruit could be picked at night, and In the busy season a good deal be saved which is lost from Insufficient sun light to see to pick. The arcs should bo placed every 30 feet apart to get good results. Th,e second way, that of applying electricity direct, was discovered in 1885 by Prof. S. LIndstrom of Fin land. He found that by using elec tricity four or five hours a day on vegetable! and fruit thnt they grew " """u' - contained 2S per cent more sugar than those which were not so treat- ed. He discovered nlso that hose treated In this way, because of the ' better circulation which the electric-' ty inspired, were able to withstand every froaf and to ward off nil dls efiae.

That In an up-to-date lege In the country, J. B. Mack was lo Portland for the! purpose of looking over the field with a "lew ol starting the college there, when he was Informed by sev eral parties that Medford was a com ing city, and strongly advised him to come here and se the place. He came, he saw, and Inside of two days ha made up his mond that this was a splendid point for an Institution of the kind he was going to run. Begins HcptrinlM-r 1st, The only drawback, or rather ob stacle In the rosd Is that of a location for the school. However, Mr. Mack lias two or three differeut ones In view and wll make a choice in tho course of few days time. He Is al ready ordering the furnishings and other things necessary and expects to open September 1. From that time on there will be both day and night classes. Prof. Mack comes from the East and has taught In some of the best business colleges there. Although he Is only 38 years of age, he has had 15 years' experience In teaching and Tun ing colleges of his own. He has col leges now In other places, but Intends to give this one his personal attentloa and will make him a residence in Medford. y All Brandies Tnuglit. It might also be stated that Prof. Mack Is the author f a number of books In connection with commerci.il colege work, which are used in hun dreds of other colleges as well as his own. All business branches will be taught and special efforts will be di rected towards to getting studenta from outside the city for a consider able distance, which In Itself will be a good thing for Medford.

It Is ex pected that they will supply with Ice from 300 to 600 cars during the fruit season. Formerly all the Icing of the cars was done elsewhere, hut for certain reasons the company are changing that arrangement nnd will have nil the fruit cars which are loaded at alt Pisces between Central . Point and Phoenli supplied with Ice at ' the plant of the Medford Ico ft Storage company, which ! situated on the railroad track at the south end of the city. In order to be able to handle the work promptly a two-decqed platform Is being erected all along the rail road tide of the bulldlDg. U3 feet long and nine feet wide. The factory Is already supplied with elevators and the ice will be taken to the top platform and from there placed In the cars as they are run alongside on the sidetrack. The first car will be loaded next Monday. It will be a carload of Rogue River valley pears. From that on It Is expected that not a weekday will pass, without one or more cars, being stocked with Ice for the Journey to the eastern markets. Although supplying a large amount of the finest quality of tee to city customers and several outlying places the Medford plant Is equipped so as to furnish the cars ns well without the slightest extra effort on the part of the staff. It might also be mentioned that nil the Ice is made only from the best distilled water and Is perfectly pure. THE TEXXIS TOI RXAMEXT. It Was Held at Jacksonville Yester day mid the Home Team Won.
