Conditio).- .1 soil and climate combine to prodtv-e a perfect fruit, -'uii as la January sold tor -flU.Ufs a !o.v in London u,.i !:!. Gradually the pear district ol' the i-oiin'r. r,hiit.;d rH until the perfect .spot was found, where air .vd .-.siinljine and earth united. Here is the coming pear r-ci.ui of the world and here it will remain, because no oilier .-...-eiion produces the quality and the quantity tin- quality that .stand shipment across the continent and lriiit a ear, and the quantity that makes a yield of 'S-) i.i acre. 'J'hree-quaj-ters of a century ago the peai diMnct 1,1 most eonscquence in the Union was located neai Essex. Mass. In succeeding years, first one ami tl.ui .mother section of the eastern states became renowned for h pears, hut today the attention of the practical horticulturists ol the nation has been directed almost altogether to the north west coast as the ideal pear section of the continent, and his .Rogue .River valley is so far superior in its merits in that line of production to any other portion of the north west that it is now engrossing all the interest. This con diion in regard to the production of this delicious fruit gives the .Rogue .River valley practically a monopoly of the best markets of the world for a product which is cer tainly the easiest to grow of any fruit which is planted here. Nearly all Rogue River valley land is adapted to pears above any other fruit that is grown. There is practically no limit to the yield, and the public are eagerly seizing upon the nearby tracts now offered. 1 t has only been a few years since the public in general was initiated into the secrets of pear-growing or its possibility as fruit venture. The heavy growers have been wise for ten years past, but did not take the public into their confidence until the annual returns realized from car lots sent to eastern markets im pressed the outsider with the fact, that here in pear culture we have a bonanza equaled only by the belter class of gold or copper mines.

Central J'oint has awakened to her opportunities. Tin spirit of progress has alighted in the center of the most beautiful and the richest valley on the continent. Old animosities anil petty jealousies have been buried and co operation and unity of action have supplanted them. The birth of the Central I'oinl Commercial club, the raising of a publicity fund, and the enthusiasm and ener gy with which the citizens have undertaken to solve their municipal problems' argue well for the future and the fil fullmcnt of their aspirations. There is no reason why Central I'oinl should not have 0000 population in five years. It has I he country, the re sources to support il. There never has been any reason for the town's lagging behind other towns, except I he leth argy of her citizens, who permitted other towns to sur pass her. Cities are made or unmade by the character uf their population. Jf the people follow a progressive policy, are wise enough to grasp their opportunities, back up their claims with cash, ami act unitedly for the common good, no power can prevent the community 's growth, and the realization of their dreams. Medford will aid Central J'oint in every wav possi ble. The old feeling of jealousy existing years ago dis appeared with the niossbacks. Her people realize that no part of the valley can improve without every town in il benefiting, and the hope anil dream of the people of Med ford is to see the entire valley one continuous ebain of homes, so that it will be difficult to I.. II when w ,e- giiiH and the other ends. ( hir interests, our resources, are common, and all cities must work unitedly as the people of each town have been working unitedly" for the contin ued growth and prosperity of the K'ogue' Uiver vallev.
