OREGON LEADS
OTHER STATES
Effect o! Community Ad
vertising Should Be Felt
This Year
PORTLAND, Or., August 31. "Ad
vertiHing Oregon" is the title of n page
tn "Printers' Ink" of July 8, one of
the must widely known of advertising
journals. And it is no wonder that
the fltnto's work ulong thrm lined Iiac
attracted thin nt tent ion, for no por
tion of America in circulating the at
tractive litornttire that bunlcnH the
mails of Oregon every day in the yrae.
Now that tho colonist rntfH are to be
in effect (and they begin tomorrow)
every citizen of the state nhoiild feet
it his duty to advertise the fact in his
personal correspondonce, to Bend infor
mation about his community to east
ern acquaintances and to aid in every
possiblo way tho commercial organiza
tions which are working to increase
the statu 'a population.
Portland is to act as host to the Amer
ican Bar association today, and the
delegates who attended the convention
at Seattlo tho past week say that
many members of tho association plan
trips through Oregon before returning
to their eastorn homes.
The united chambers of commerce of
Japan have extended an invitation to
the representative business men of the
cities along the Pacific coast to pastic
ipato In an excursion which will leave
San Francisco on Heptember 2f. Those
preferring to go by another route, how
over, will join the party in Japan. The
entirn trip will consume about three
months, and tho visitors will sen the
famous chrysanthemums at their best.
Thero 1b every indication of a most
cordial co-operation on the part of the
commercial bodies of Oregon and Wash
ington in advancing the interests of
the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition,
and in every other movement having
for its purpose tho upbuilding of the
north Pacific, coast. An evidence of
this Is n recent interchange of visits
by the active officers of commercial
bodies in Portland, Heattle, Tacoma and
other northwestern cities. Co-operation
of the same churnctcr exists between
tho livestock associations of the dif
ferent sections, and through their work
ing in harmony there, is assurance that
beginning with the first meeting this
fall, tho finest horses from the best
stables of tho entire country will par
ticipate in tho events planned for Ore
goti, Washington and Idaho.
Tho most elaborate book ever pub
lis lied on Oregon is in process of prepa
ration by a firm whose books on other
sections of America are in n clans by
themselves. They have enlisted the
services of Heiijuiiiin A. (lift'oid, of
The Dalles, in securing hundrodr. of
choicest views for this use. Mr. Clif
ford m collection of Columbia river pho
tographs which adorn the convention
hall of the Portland Commercial club
have been responsible for iimnv tour
ists taking this river trip.

Making Hubby Appreciative.
A doctor tells of a note he received
from a woman saying that her hus
band, who was about to make him a
professional call, found constant fault
wltb the dinner she prepared fur hi m
She appealed to the physician for aid.
J he doctor examined his pallcitl, who
bad a slight attack of indigestion, mi l
tuld him to cut out lunches, to eat
nothing but a Hike of toast and a cup
of tea. 1 be scheme worked excellent
ly. Of course hubby returns home In
tho evening, eals everything In sight
and votes his wife's cooking even bet
ter than mother used to mnke. Hus
ton liocord.
At kinxt uuc of our stored, in faot
theonly store that deals extenatvelv in
ready towear goods, is showing some
thing like 200 of the new stvle suits.
The jackets tome in the new mannish
coast styles, with tho smaller long
sleeves, nnad are trimmed more or leas
with large braid, brass or cloth covered
buttons and the finer grades are trim
ined with mauy different plain and fan-
ey braids. Every woman can certainly
uftord a suit this fall, and in no sea
son of the past will the opportunity be
so excellent for one to secure style
and quality at a low price.
New cloths are being used almost al
- mostu exclusively aud consist of wide
wail diagonals, chevron stripes and
fancy hairline silk striped fancies, also
many beautiful mixed otriped fancies.
The skirts are mostly plain and made
with u wide flare at tho bottom. This
style is the easiest o keep pressed and
will wear and look better thaa most
styles.
Last Reason this store was just start
ing up and was handicapped by not hav
ing a definite location, but this season
it has tho only modern ground floor
suit parlors in southern Oregon and is
now prepared to show to its many
friends and patrons something like 200
of the new and swell suits as will be
shown in any city in the United States
this season. This firm follows a very
board and liberal policy in the sale of
its merchandise. All goods nro marked
in plain figures and at very small aver
ago profits. One prico to all is the
motto and no ono can buy a dollar's
worth of goods for less than anyone
else.
Wo understand that no sales on suits
will be conducted before about tho end
of the season, as it will be impossible
to cut prices without actually losing
money. 'Ihoso of you who feol that
you would like to see Medford go ahead
and would rather patronize a modern,
progressive store, should visit this store
and examine the new stvle suits. They
won 't urge you to buy, but honestly
and earnestly toll you all tho merits of
the goods and will try to help you in
getting tho thing that exactly suits you.
Then, after you have bought it, they
guarantee it to give satisfaction just
ug us you think it shond. If it
proves poor, you can only blame your
self if you fail to como back and tell
them about it and give them a chance
to replace it. Jiy this time you have
ertainty guessed that tho firm re
ferred to is the Baker-Hutchason Co.
This firm conducts a regular city store
mid along the same lines. It advertises
:i 1 1 the time and is not afraid to quote
prices and show its goods. It leaves
it to you to be the judgo and never
fails to make good an article that you
say has proven unsatisfactory. r ou
!in do no better tluui to trade with a
store like this.
If you have lost or found
anything, need work, or have
something to sell, it doesn't
matter what you want is, try
a Want Ad in The Tribune.

The Harvest Sale
A chance to save when you want it
Some of our competitors would like to circulate rumors just the same as they
tried to make people believe that we sold inferior goods when we started in, but
it won't work. We have stood back of every dollar's worth of goods we sold, and
made good every time a thing proved un satisfactory. WE ARE GOING TO
STAY IN MEDFORD.

the best goods the world's markets afford at prices never before attempted in
southern Oregon. NEW BARGAINS ADDED TODAY. Von 7 fail to tut in yoitr
