Medford, Or.
Is located in Jack sou county, Southern
Oregon, in the heart of the celebrated
Rogue River valley. The valley has au I
area of approximately loOO square'
miles and is about half us large as ;
the state of Delaware or Rhode Island.
The Rogue River valley is one of
the most prolific in t ho entire country,
and produces apples, pears, peaches, ;
grapes and other fruits with extraordi
nary success. During l!"7 an orchard
near Medford shipped a carload of
pears to Xow York City, for which the
gross price of $4(122. so was paid. This
is t he fresh f rn i t car record of t he
world and is equivalent to the remark
able price of 17 cents per pound for
fresh fruit at wholesale. The fruit
which made this remarkable record was'
Du Cornice pears. The best previous
record of fresh fruit was also made by
Mill ford (in l!Miii) when $;ij."0 was
paid for a carload of the same fruit.
The records made in the Rogue River
valley in orchards adjacent to Med
ford during l!t(i" are so wonderful as
to surpass belief. Sixteen and one-half
acres of Winter Xellis pears produced
19.000 net f. o. b. Medford. Fifty five
trees of Yellow Xowtown Pippins pro
duced Sin boxes of fruit, which, in
spite of the financial pa me in London,
panned out $1711. HO net. These trees
grew on less than one acre. The three
acre orchard from which this fruit was
taken has produced an average amount
of $000 net per year for the last eight
years. One hundred and fifty two Yel
low Xewtown Pippin ti-eH produced in
1!07, :t12.T f. o. b. Medford. These
trees grew on three acres. From eight
acres near Medford 0000 boxes of Xew
town Pippin apples were marketed in
t!'7, netting $2000 an acre f. o. b. the
orchard. For the past seven years this
orchard lias netted $7!0 per acre aver
age Apple and Pear Return;;.
Seven acres of Bart let t, pears near
Medford in 9107 grossed $2200 per acre.
A young Part let t pear orchard of .'10
acres of S-year-old trees netted $HM'S
per ncre.
Twenty Winter Xellis pear trees net
ted $H0uii. These figures show the won
derful profit made in 11107 for apple
and pear orchards about Medford a
profit exceeding $100(1 per acre in many
cases.
Although the record for 1900 does
not show such wonderful returns, the
figures are, nevertheless, exceeding! v
Inrge. . Three-fourths of an acre of
S;iit.eilberS produced .Is 7 boxes in
l!oii, which brought $1171. Four acres
of Spit.cuhergs brought $21 Hi. Twenty
two acre-; of pears in I9''ii produced
1 boxes of fruit, which sold for
$SNS4 f. o. b. cars.
The significant fact of the wonderful
nsoinvcs and possibilities of the Rogue
River valley is shown by the offer of
the Mi d frd 'oinmereinl club to pay
$.1mo to any one who can show by au
thentic testimony that, any city or
town in the Tinted States, outside of
a 40-mile circle, wit h Medford as a
center, lias t r Unitary to it. within the
same radiii as many diversified re
sources as Medford, Or., can show with
in the rori' ponding radius. Among
the resources of this wonderful valley
