City Soda
Water Free
(From the Portland Oregonian.)
The city of Ashland, in southern
Oregon, with its forty or more lithla,
soda and sulphur springs and the
beautiful scenery along the Rogue
river, Is beginning to realize that it
is the natural center for the tourist
travel to that section of the state,
and 1173,000 has been raised by
bond issue to develop the springs and
provide parks and playgrounds for
the visitors.
Tbe city has acquired mineral
springs and has undertaken a big
project in connection with the utiliza
tion of their waters. Lithia, soda
and sulphur waters will be piped into
the city and dispensed, free to all, in
the new Lithia park. Twenty-one
miles of three and four inch pipe will
be used in the project.
Sulphur Water
Is Connected
The sulphur water pipe line to the
city is now completely connected to
the point where the carbonating sta
tion will be erected. Water will
probably run through the pipe tomor
row for a trial. Everything is com
plete, with the exception that the
cement at the spring needs to harden
a little more. The sulphur water
flows to the city by gravity force.
The ditch lines to the gas well are
almost all dug, only a few crossings
being Incomplete. The gas from the
Cunningham well is a heavler-than-air
gas, and will have to be forced
to the city by a compressor.
Material for the buildings and pip
ing yet to be used are on tbe road as
fast as trains can carry them here.
The Commercial Club requests the
names and addresses of parties who
are considering coming to the coast
his summer. We wish to send them
Iterature and give them a good con
ception of Oregon. 74-tf

Encouragement Is
Given in Letter
Mayor 'Johnson received a letter
last Friday, which ought to inspire
confidence in any one of the possi
bilities of Ashland. It was from T.
L. Martin1, a prominent attorney of
Boise, Idaho, and member of the law
firm of Martin & Martin of that
place. We print the letter in full
below:
"Mr. Johnson, Mayor, Ashland, Ore.
"Dear Sir: About the 15th of
July my family and myself hud the
pleasure of enjoying the hospitality
of your city by camping In your pub
lic canip ground. I returned to Boise
about ten days ago and Intended
writing you sooner, but have been
prevented from doing so until this
morning.
"I remember you stated the even
ing we arrived in Ashland that In all
our travels we would find nothing
which equalled the park your city
has provided for automobile tourists.
On our trip we traveled about 2,500
miles, and our experience verified
your statement.
"You and your associates are to be
commended for the public enterprise
which your city Is showing. Any
traveler will be Impressed with the
enterprise and earnestness of you I
men who are in charge of affairs.
You have struck the keynote of suc
cess, and that Is, make the stranger
feel welcome. We saw many larger
places, but we saw none more beauti
ful or hospitable.
"I don't know what the population
of Ashland is, but I do know that
such enterprise and hospitality as
you men are showing to strangers
will cause It to grow, and It will
eventually be as large as city as the
resources of the surrounding country
will Justify..
"Wishing you gentlemen success,
and assuring you that the night spent
in your public park was one of the
most enjoyable on our trip, I am,
"Respectfully yours,
"T. L. MARTIN'."
American Trade

It has been announced In Wash
ington that America's shipping for
foreign trade has Increased over
700,000 tons over last year, despite
the stories of the demoralization of
commerce through untoward legisla
tion. "Our tonnage nearly equals that
of the French and Norwegian flags,"
says the report.
Don't send, your boy to school with
lll-fittlng, ready-made clothes, when
you can get a made-to-measure suit,

Motorists
Are Invited
(From the Walla Walla, Wash., Bul
letin.) One of the most complete parks in
the west for motorists who desire to
camp out while on their trijis has
just been completed by the citizens of
Ashland, Ore., at a cost of many thou
sand dollars. Ashland Is on the Pa
cific highway, and is the location of
a large number of healthful springs.
The construction of the camp
grounds for motorists Is one of the
steps they are taking to make the
city a well-known watering place.
An Invitation was received today
by the Commercial Club to all mem
bers and citizens of Walla Walla
passing through Ashland this summer
on their way to the exposition, or any
other time, to make use of the park.
A brief description of this unique
park, which Is probably the only mu
nlpipally owned park of Its kind in
this part of the country, is given as
follows:
"In order to take care of the tour
ing motorists who desire to camp
out, we have prepared one of the
most complete camp grounds on the
Pacific coast, in our new Lithia park.
Individual camping places, with
plenty of room to park cars and erect
tents; private tables, where one may
have the privacy of home, will be
found In a pleasant grove on the
banks of the beautiful Ashland
creek. Facilities for cooking with
gas and private lockers for food are
provided In the 'kitchenette.'
"This camp ground Is free of
charge to all who desire to use it.
We extend a hearty and cordial Invi
tation to all the members of your
organization. We ask only that you
I M
DON'T
let your children attending school eat noon lunches
that are un-nourishing and un-palatable. They want
variety in their food and tasty things
In putting up their lunches each day, drop in
some nutritious graham wafers, an orange, a sliee of
pineapple, and alternate with some of the thousand
good things that we carry. Some sandwiches with
centers consisting of slices of our fine bacons and
hams, fried crisp, is tasty and nutritious.
These hints about lunches apply equally well to
J auto picnickers.

There are over forty lithia and
sulphur springs in the vicinity of
Ashland, and the people of that city
are spending $175,000 tbls year,
with the idea of making Ashland one
of the great watering places on tbe
coast.
Buy a Basket
Of Peaches
Not to be outdone by Chicago,
where a "buy a basket of peaches"
week was held earlier in the month,
New York is to enter on a similar
campaign this week. The country is
having a bumper peach crop this
year. Consequently the farmers and
various state agricultural authorities
who are anxious to see It moved In
record time and the normal peach
consumption largely Increased, are
behind the movement. The peach
crop In 39 states amounts to 60,000,- .
000 bushels, which means that 20,
000,000 f amnion In the United States
will have to buy three bushels each,
If the whole crop is to be disposed of
tbls fall. Otherwise as In years past
a large percentage of the yield will
be fed to the hogs or left to rot on
the ground. This movement it Is
hoped will cut down this wastage to
a minimum. To help the campaign
along and Increase the Interest of
housewives In preserving this de
licious fruit, the New York state agri
cultural department has one of Its
canning specialists lecturing ' daily,
over a gas range at various centers
where women meet on the Intricacies
of the peach-preserving process.
