U.S. FRUITINSPECTION
Hope to Minimize Loss on Shipments

NOItTll YAKIMA. Wash., July 21.
Tho establishment of a corps of
federal government fruit exports here

country $.r0,f)00. At Iho limo (hoj
went in tho annual loss on fruit was
$l,fi00,000. It in now recognized,
Mr. l'owell auyn, that the losses in
storage or transit are almost wholly
duo lo tho handling f Iho fruit he
fore it comes to tho storage or trans
portation companies. It is of the
greatest importance (hat the fruit he

wrapped and placed in an iced en",
will travel half way across the con
tinent before they are cooled, and
during tht time ripening or decay is
in progress. The great Washington
problems, as be sees them, are (hose
of caring for tho soft fruits utidur

"Ooluh" Poorly Attended, but Wor

It is truly a mailer of rej'rct thai
Mcdford people do not more liberally
patronize Iho performances of tho
lioston Ideal Opera company, who
have done much in Hie way of making
Mcdford a more pleasant plucc in
which to reside. The crformiineo of
"Oolali''' last evening ul The Mod
ford was very poorly attended, and
yet 'Oolah'' is the most finished pro
duction as yet given by tho company.

The company has been strength

Her solo last evening was received
with much enthusiasm and was great
ly enjoyed. With Mrs. lluzelrigg and
Mr. Wulters the music is splendid.
They were well supported and every
member of the company added to tho
evening's entertainment.
Manager Walters announces "Oo

is also planning to present "II Trov

"Something which is of consider

By means of this system tickets may
be purchased at Medford from any
plnee in the United States and mail

wishing to- come here. Sleeper ac

may also be forwarded at the same

"Yes," was the answer.

in amazement.

LOOKING ACROSS GEYSER BASIN AT HORTICULTURAL HALL
No fairer scene can be offered any placo than tho outlook from the foot
of the Alarka Monument on the grounds of the Alaska-Yukon-Paclflc Ex
position. Standing directly in front of the great building of the United
States Government, tho enormous golden eagle on his towering perch
or norihiTa Bold keeps wa'ch and guaTd over the most perfect exposition
city that has ever been reared. Under his eye are gathered the rarest
collection of man's examples of skill and art ever assembled, and these
find shelter in a magnificent group of permanent and temporary buildings,
whose architectural design and clever construction exemplify . the very
highest of man's Inventive ability.
At night when the long twilight of the northern latitudes close down,
the manifold beauties of the spot show their greatest charm. With the
fading of day comes tho romance of evening and the millions of lamps,
made brilliant by electricity, flashtheir rainbow tlnta over a land such as
fairies might have builded. The rushing, tumbling torrents of tho Cas
cade jur their enormous volume over a bed covered by electric bulbs,
and from the quiet pool of Geyser Basin are reflected as in a mirror.
Electroliers of French design are lavishly scattered beneath the trees, and
from tbelr clear rays the fieldr of flowers are seen in added hues.
One Success.
