Between fovtv and fifty thousand acres of orchards will have been planted by the end of the present season in the Rogue River valley tributary to Medford. This means over one-third the orchard area of the entire state. Hood River valley is rapidly developing, rapidly be- ins planted and" much boomed. It is heard of to the. ex elusion of other sections in the north yet the entire or chard area of Hood river is less than 10,000 acres less than .the area of new orchards that will be planted in tin Rogue River valley alone this, season. There are' in bearing in the Rogue River valley at the present time only a few hundred acres of matured or chards vet the harvest is sufficient to send hundreds of carloads of fancy apples and pears to every part of the world and the fruit commands the highest market price everywhere, because of its superior flavor and unusual keeping qualities, and hundreds of thousands of dollar flow into the valley in exchange. If 1000 cars arc shipped out of the valley today, bring ing in over a million dollars .returns, in ten years, with forty or fifty tunes the acreage in bearing, there will be 40,000 or 50,000 cars of fruit shipped and from $40,000,000 to $DO,000,000 a year returns.! Think what the future of Medford will bo then for by this time the orchard area will he proportionately increased and Medford without question be the center of the world's - largest fruit belt. There is no danger of overdoing it for only a few re gions can produce the quality of fruit that comes in com petition with that of Medford, and the demand increases faster than the supply.
