Future in Mines In State of Oregon Oregon Building, Panama-raclfic International Exposition. Oregon's exhibits continue to win prizes. This time It is the niueh-covetcd gold medal for the best collective exhibit of mineral resources, six silver med als for Individual exhibits nnH fnnr bronze medals. Considering the fact that Oregon provided a fund of but $10,000 for this work, that as a mat ter of necessity the exhibit was in stalled so late that the original Jury of awards had finished Its work, and that no winnings were anticipated, this( capture of the grand prize comes almost in the nature of a miracle. However, when the exhibit had been set up In anything but its perfection of today, the exposition people were asked if they could not do some thing. It belns urged that the awards had not been announced, the officials agreed that they would send a sub-committee over to the Mining building and size up the situation. This committee found such a com plete and altogether satisfactory col lective exhibit that In all fairness they could not ignore it, and in the final test Oregon won the big prize. That more individual prizes were not landed was due wholly to the lack of time for satl3."ajt.ory preparation. The Oregon mining exhibit occu pies a space 50x100. Plate glass floor cases filled with specimens are around the outside, and a relief map of Oregon, 8x10 feet, occupies the center. The latter is the work of Prof. H. M. Parks and Prof. Solon Shedd, who were awarded silver medals for this fine piece of work. Besides the showcase exhibits of pre cious metals, the exhibit consists of large pieces of representative quartz specimens from the different mining sections, together with granite and marble, coal, stone and moving pic tures of mines and mining in Ore gon. Coal from the Beaver Hill mine In Coos county, fine big blocks, is there, a black marble table from the Wallowa marble district, native copper specimens from the famous Waldo district of southern Oregon, and eighteen ounces of platinum from the Logan River placer mines In Josephine county the largest In dividual platinum producer in the world bring many questions. The Josephine County Bank has a pretty collection of gold nuggets, and Mrs. A. B. Cornell of Grants Pass has a beautiful showing of necklace and earrings made from nuggets. The Belmont mine in the Greenhorn dis trict shows crystallized gold, and the Northwestern Granite Company of Baker has a large slab and cubes of fine building granite. A $1,500 gold nugget found at the Buck Gulch placers In Grant county is a sight for weary eyes, the seventy-ounce daily output of the Powder River Dredging Company at Sumpter looks mighty fine worked Into the words "Made in Oregon," and a Pine creek boulder weighing about 200 pounds and val ued at $1,500 by the finder, Tabe Reed, appeals to many. Rhodonite, In handsomely polished and mounted neck chains, brooches and scarf pins, is the offering of Mrs. E. M. Wheeler of Grants Pass. The Cornucopia Mines Company of New York and the Baker Mines Company, allied con- . . tnr AAA cerns producing aDoui io.uuu n month each, have a large special ex- of a Good Time AT Interurban Between Ashland, Talent, Phoenix bound doily except Sunday at 9:00 a. m., 12:50 p. m., 2:30 p. m., 4:30 p. m. and 7:00 p. m.

The Big hlblt of normal and high grade ores, copper mat and the chemicals used in extracting gold. The Rainbow gold mines of Baker, producing about $35,000 a month, shows some superb specimens, and there are some good samples from the Bohemia district in Lane county. Among the stones is that from the once famous Pioneer quarry at To ledo, and great effort is being made to revive the Btone industry at that place. Tills stone Is in many of the California and Oregon skyscrapers. Some stone from a quarry at Mon roe, Benton county, is shown. Coal from a new discovery at Squaw creek, Coos county, attracts atten tion. There are two veins on this property, seven and ten feet in thick ness, and good exhibits are made by M. C. Anderson of Grants Pass, who is manager. The Williams creek, Josephine county, marble shows to advantage. According to Fred Mellls, in charge here, there is tremendous op portunity in Oregon for the Invest ment of capital with every prospect of satisfactory return. In gold pro duction the state brings forth about $1,600,000 with scarcely more than a half dozen producers, but there are fully 100 now-making mines making a sufficient showing to warrant the confidence of a very large production if the capital was but available for development. In southern Oregon the Waldo copper district promises great things, as a railroad Is now be ing built into the camp. The Reddy and Grlnnell holdings In southern Oregon are now under examination by responsible mining men. Among the big properties awaiting reopen ing in eastern Oregon are the Bals ley Elkhorn, Eureka . Excelsior and the Red Boy Bonanza. The Oregon Bureau of Mines and Geology, under whose direction the winning exhibit here is made, Is bending every proper effort to direct the public's attention to the many sections of Oregon where there Is undeveloped natural resource of the character set forth In the exhibit. There Is constant In quiry at the Oregon building about Oregon mining possibilities and the booth is visited daily by many nun dreds. It Is conceded by other ex hlbitors In the great mining palace that Oregon's exhibit of gold Bpecl mens Is unquestionably the best on the floor. Now that the exhibit floats the big purple banner giving the official notice of the capture of the grand prize the Oregon showing looks particularly good to Oregon! ans. July Weather at Ashland.

IIHimHMIHMIIIItltll IrrigationlNeed Is Recognized After years of agitation by those who realize the benefit which wide spread irrigation would be to the val ley, the farmers and orchardists of the Medford district seem to be awak ening to the urgent need for irriga tion. The Valley Water Users' League has had offices in Medford for the past two weeks and report the signing up of 5375 acres for irriga tion. These acres have all been signed up without any sort of a cam paign being made by committees. All of those who have signified their de sire for Irrlgat'on under the league and the plan which It will formulate have done so of their own Initiative. The Water Users will keep the of fices In the Garnott-Corey building at Medford open all this week and many more land owners are expected to sign up. Of the land so far signed 2,061 acres is farm land and 3,314 orchard. The largest land owner to sign up Is VV. H. Gore, who signs for 600 acres of farm land. The Tidings is on sale at Poley's 1rug store, 17 East Main street. $2 THE YEAR $2 Strictly In Advance Southern Oregon's Big Twice-a-Week newspaper THE Ashland Tidings WHAT CATARRH IS It has been said that every third person has catarrh in some form. Science has shown that nasal catarrh often indicates a general weakness of the body; and local treatments in the form of snuffs and vapors do little, if any good.
