Oipo mouth, by muil or carrkr. .$0.60 MEDFOttI) LEADS THE STATE. In 1008, more cars oi' mimiMMlities were unloaded by the Southern Pacific at Modl'urd than at any other city in western Oregon outside of Portland. As many carload sliipineyits wore made to Medford as to any other city. More cars of household goods were shipped to Medford than to any other city, indicating a greater influx of peo ple. These new residents c.unc from a greater number of states than the newcomers in any other locality, every state west of the Mississippi heing represented. The shipments increased GO per cent over the shipments of the year pre vious, which in turn were an increase of 50 per cent over thoe of the year previous. jTTlIToi)," if present crop prospects materialize, the Ifogue River valley will ship hai f the total applo shipments of Oregon and nine-tenths of the pear shipments. Each year the fruit shipments will increase amazingly as new orchards come into hearing, Xever have the trees been as full of fruit buds and the weather conditions are most favorable. There are 50,000 acres of fruit set out in the district tributary to Medford, which in the course of a few years will mean many thousands of cars shipped annually. The greatest need of the valley is a fruit association to market the crop and enforce uniformity in pack, and a cannery. With the coming of spring the influx of settlers will begin, and this paper predicts that shipments into Medford for VM) will increase at least 100 per cent, over those of is proud of Medford, and ils pride is justified by the bus iness Medford gives it. More passenger business is also done here than at any oilier southern city, and its popu lation is more cosmopolitan and metropolitan. "With a railroad business already larger than that of its rivals combined, and increasing by leaps and bounds, docs it not; seem as if Medford is making good its claim as the metropolis of southern Oregon?
