May . l-Alinost a million grpevin have been, planted on the hill slopes of southern Oregon in the past year. The grape erase, as it is popularly called, is superseding (bo gold erase, and it la Interesting to note that many or tn oest vineyaras are ."" ing on ground that was worked in the ftrly days for the precious yellow metal. Tha variety that has proved its supe riority in southern Oregon Is the Flam ing. Tokay. It has also been found that the celebrated American grape, the Con cord, as well as many of the more deli cate European - varieties, such as the Malvolses, Rose of Feru.s Black Ham burg, Golden Chasselar and others thrive on tao re a tanas or sou mem w tnn. The conditions of soil, altitude and climate are almost identical with that of the ramous wine-proouoing sec tions of Franceand.; Italy.

These lands., uncleared,, can be bought for from lift to $25 an acre; tne price cleared Is 10 to 110 an acre, ; Cost to riant and Bee The cost of planting, cultivating and general attention .may ' be summarised as follows: (15 vines, the number required per acre ...... ,......$11.00 Plowing, pulverising, preparing for nlftnta nf .nr. A Aa Cultivation first year, "per acre., 4!0 tne After- the first year cost of cul tivating, pruning anoX spraying Is but $ per acre. For cultivating, the suc cessful vlneyardists of southern Oregon use a aort of spring-tooth harrow or cultivator, built for the purpose, and of a width to accommodate the rows. This cultivator, drawn by two horses, covers the largest vineyard in a short time, eultlvatlne- It thnrnnehlv anil it Is an operation Itiat 1 performed regu larly at least once a week during the and and granite Josephine- and 4eksqn ane lands.

Tha grape, to mature, and to reach the hla-hest noint of excellence as to color, size and flavor, must be grown In an eouaoie temperature, wun ample sun snine. ana tne soutn. southeast ana southwest hill elopes of Rogue river valley meet these requirements. Fay live Hundred Dollars to the Acre. It has been demonstrated by vineyard that have been In operation for several years that southern Oregon south slope hill lands, when planted to the vine and properly cared for, tay from $200 to $500 per acre. There are thousands of acres of such hill lands still unused In southern Oreron lands that will make as fine vineyards as those already In operation. A splendid feature of grape culture in this region is that it does not reauire lrritraiton: in truth, the vln bears a grape of better quality if given entire summer season. Frequent culti vation keeps the soil well pulverised, promotes ca"ulary action and keeps the moisture near the surface. The best market ffajpe for this sec tion Is tha Flaming Tokay, ,, It, is aa ex tremely popular grape, it is a good ship ping grape, 'and. best -of alV it attalaa a also, flavor and color not surpassed by any other variety. The fall rains are always deferred In southern Oregon to a data that allows ample time zor ripening, gathering and .marketing. The growers have never had any trouble to dispose of their entire crop, and could place many times the amount now . grown. If all the' hill slopes of southern Oretron were set In . vines, a ready market for the whole output could still be found in the east," shipping by the carload.

Grapes, like apples and pears, to derive the best price, must be neatly and cor rectly packed, xn this work the suc cessful grower never slights the small est detail.

Packed in this manner and placed on the market, they not merely command tne sell, but prlca very highest V COMES TO EELEKS. i philosophy line . clothes is nothing more -t nor less than the secret of a fine appearance; that, in turn, is the open sesame to social, commercial an d other affairs.
