"An an example ot" Medford 'h pro
gressi venous, a gravity water works hvs

of $300,000. A ml , to hhow t hat I he
people who have the work in charge are
live oneH,' they propone to meter every
nervici pipe, the meter to be paid lor
by the water user and the charge for
water to be so much per thousand gal
lons with a minimum rate of not elss
than 75 cents for households.
"The, progreHB that has been made in
horticulture is wonderful, yet the
ground haH ns yet hardly been scratched.
Jto it said to the credit nf a few Port
land people who are alumni pioneers in
this great industry, many of the bent
orchard are owned and conducted by
people who were once residents of Port
l:iDd.
"What the near past is to the -res
ent, the present is to the future in the
Rogue River valley. The fame of I his
wonderful fruit will be spread to the
four corner of the earth, in short, the
Rogue River valley 'n market is the
world, with no diminution in the do
inand, no matter how great the supply.
"And there are other sect ions of Ore
gon engaged in fruit production nnd to
engage in it that will be as gnat bene
ficiaries as Rogue Hover with no chnncc
nf the supply ever catching up with
the demand for these particular prod
nets. The people of Oregon have only
to' wake up and keep a going."
