NECESSITY FOR ORGANISATION.
Necessity for fruit growers of tlie Rogue River valley
to Drganize grows more and more apparent daily. AVhat
organization has done for Hood River should be done bore
also. The purchaser of the Hood River crop for this year,
who paid a record price, says :
"It is pertinent for me to say also that the salvation of
the Ilood River-Moiier district lms been iti dnhi;rowe re
unions. I have come direct from Aew 1 ork to buy tins
cr0p if there had been no unions I would not have-made

The price paid for the Hood River crop is heralded as
a record one. It is $2.50 net a box. In 1907, Balfour

a source of delight to the owners and the community.
Late fall or early winter is the time to plant here.
Trees set out in the spring do not do well, and the ladies
of the Greater Medford club will add to their many useful
monuments if they will make it a business to see that Med
ford 's streets are lined with shade trees. "

MAKES NEW TERMS ON LOTS
On account of the rapid .sale of
lots in our additions on the carlinos,
the installm of a new naSte-r ws'h
better service and new lmira lows be
ing reeled, we have decided to in
crease the price of these lots' from
$2."i0 to $2ti0.
Sixty-six of these lots are already
sold. Many people do not appreciate
the .-Vlcndid uiouutain views from this
part of Medford. Thu elevation be
ing -lienrly one hundred feet higher
than the business section of the city.
Think, what it menus in the rainy
season to wulk a few blocks mid
what a diffcreneeto step aboard the
ciire and arrive" in town with . clean
shoes and dry feet.
.Experience miU observation hi oth
er cities and towns teaches that resi
dence lots lying close' to n carline
will sell for nearly 'double those lots
lying at a distance that will iiccesi
tnte walking.
We can't all own automobiles, but
we can afford 5c carfare. Wo will
district on each payment. Our solic
ilor will gladly call on you at your
request and explain our plans in de-
tail and show mm the lots. I
Remember tho price is only $250
now, until September 15, when they i
will bo advanced to $2(10, and wo !
firmly believe under the conditions!
now existing in Medford, that they
will sell for :? 100 or more. t
Ten dollars down and $10 per :
month makes you the owner of one of
these beautiful iv.-idonee lots.
