Much has been said about Ashland's noted springs Of mineral waters and of the expendi ture of $175,000 for piping the water into Ivlthla park, but little haa ever been written about the park Itself. The park as the whole Is as nature made It. It contains 65 acres of ground jmd Is In a canyon, with an. entrance from the plaza only half a V block from the postofflce and city hall : v - the business center of Ashland. Ashland creek, . a mountain stream with clear, cold and sparkling water from the melted enows of Mount Ash land, traverses the park the whole length. During: the summer the city pur chased about 30 acres of adjoining; land on Granite street and removed and tore down about 25 residences and other buildings, making the entire park complete so that no spot Is now marred hv bulhllnira nf on kind Xke of Xdthia. In the center of the park Is found Uthla lake, built by the park com- mission last summer. The lake la J formed of water from Ashland creek. North of the lake Is the Japanese garden, with rustic tea house and lagoons of water, fountains playing their waters In the air, and for a back ground In the distance is snowcapped Mount Ashland. , Courts for the lovers of lawn tennis and , croquet have been made. The ' children were not forgotten by the commissioners, for here, too, is to be found a playground. Three pavilions have been con structed of logs, and from the boulder-constructed fountains in the in terior is found the health giving wa x ters of lithia, soda and Sulphur. In delivering these waters from the l springs to the fountains in the park, 1 34 miles of specially constructed pipe v was used. Near the pavilions is Ash land's municipal band stand. In every nook and corner are to be found rustic chairs, settees and table made from laurel and manazetta wood. Scores of rustic bridges span the. creek and there are rustic rest houses. At the southern entrance to the park Is the well known free auto camp grounds with all of the modern con veniences for the tired and dusty autniat. This camp ground lifts given Ashland much advertising, being the first of its kind on the Pacific coast. From Ashland to the summit of Mount Ashland la one vast acenlc park i what the city does not own is in the forest reserve, thereby protecting Ash land creek, from which the city gets its water supply. From the city to the summit of Mount Ashland the distance is only 13 miles. The government has spent quite a sum of money building a road from- ling's cabin to within a few miles of the summit. A view from the top of this mountain is worth the time and labor. To the south In Can forni is seen, Mount bnasta and the Shasta valley; to the west the Coast ) range; north spreads out the Rogue river valley, cities or Ashland, Med- . ford and Central Point nestling In the ' valley, and back In ths distance are the Umpclua mountains.

The school tax levy ' In Marshfleld for 1811 will be 11. mills. This was de cided upon at an election of property owners. This la . mills less than the 11 levy. Of the total of ll mills, 9 mills will take care of the running expenses of the schools and the other 1 mills Is for the purpose of paying the Interest and $800 of the principal on school bonds, which amount, to S7f.e09.. The expenditures for HIS ars sstlmatcd at $40,m. . Battle Ground, Or,, Nor. 20. Two miles southeast of here is located Wal nut Hill Farm, the home of Clarke county's fruit wisard. It Is 80 acres in extent, 46 acres of which lies on eaca side of the public highway running north and south. The part on the east side is the one of most attraction, as it Is here that A. W. Ward resides, and where he began his labors nine years ago. The difference in growth of two trees planted at the same time, one in the sod and the Other in a cultivated field, the former 16 Inches in height and one half inch in diameter, the lat ter 20 feet In height and 10 inches in diameter illustrates the difference In cultivation and non-cultivation of the two trees in the same soil, growing amid the same sunshine, moistened with the same "Pacific mist." Trees Are Bearing. Part of this land has been tilled for Jl years, and has never had any fer tilised on it, yet has produced English walnut trees 8 to 10 Inches in diameter in the last eight years. Mr. Ward has 800 English walnut trees on his place, which are from 1 to 8 years old, and he will add 260 more this year. He has harvested 1000 pounds this year from the above trees, and has sold the crop for 18 cents a pound. Grapes Are Varied. The following U varieties of grapes are bearings Niagara White, Little Delaware, Concord, Virginia Pink. Mc Klnley. Brighton, Warden. White Hweet Water, Royal Muscatina, Campbell's Early, ChehsJIs Blue and one unnamed variety. One will find 17 varieties of apples; blue chili filberts. Til ton apricot, Bur bank plum, almond trees, fig trees, beech nuts, peanuts, olive trees, peach trees, four varieties of cherries, pears, raspberries, mountain huckleberries, strawberries and three varieties or currants. All of the above are bearing, except the olive trees, which are too young. There Is also a new variety of pear, which is smooth and well shaped, weighing 17 'ounces. All it lacks is a name, and certainly is deserving of a good one, judging from its fine qual ities. The Burbank plum, 4 years old, pro duced 90 pounds of plums; and the new Marshall strawberries were so large that seven filled a quart box, and two boxes were picked from one hill at one picking. Kas Other Xdaes. Mr. Ward shows his skill in other lines as well as the above, as he raised 49 bushels of onions on a piece of ground 42x60 feet this year, and picked two tons of first class tomatoes from a piece of ground 280 by 80 feet, and still there is nearly a ton of green to matoes on the same ground now. California toasts of her Burbank, Oregon of her schoener, and Washing ton has reason to be proud of Ward, the patient son of the soil, who faith fully tolls each day to produce those products which are of benefit to man kind.

Mr. and Mrs. Henry Black celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage, at the Baptist chureti of which they are both members. Special exercises were held In their honor and were fol lowed by a dinner party at their homo, which was attended by the children and grandchildren. Mr. Black and his wife have lived In Oregon more than half a century. They were married in Douglas countys,ln 1866, and 10 years later moved to Coos county. With the members of her parents' family Mrs. Blaok came to Oregon with other settlers who trav eled across the plains in wagons pulled by ox teams. The first stop was made at Oakland NATURE PLAYED A TRICK ON THIS TREE Brownsville's freak tree. Brownsville, Or., Nov. 20. An odd growth was noticed on the top or a fir tree found on the hills near this city. The tree was about 30 feet high. Near the top the tree was apparently dead for about four feet, where there was an abundant growth, six limbs branching out within about 12 Inches, after which the tree was dead to the top, about six feet more. It Is considered unusual that the live branches and bark obtained nour ishment when the tree on both sides was apparently dead. It is believed that some sap was drawn through the cortex of the dead trunk. Japanese ' Welcome Baron. Hood River, Or., Nov. 20. Baron E. Shibusawa, accompanied by Baroness H Mbusawa and two children, passed through Hood River Friday on their way to Washington, D. C. where Baron Shibusawa will take up the matter of the Japanese problem in California with President Wilson direct. A large delegation of local Japarfese met the baron at the train in Hood River, and through the courtesy of Yasut Broth ers, local Japanese merchants, the visitors were supplied With Hood River applet. NS'tv -v 'Itf iXSf xi J jlVi If ? Why Not Give Youtself a Pension ?. i 0 The fquitable Life Assurance society now oilers a bond, which is not tan insurance contract payaNe it dealh, but an Investment for the benefit :of the purchaser. It M designed for those who wish to lay by present sav lings for future use. , . ! The purchaser of this bond deposits with the Equitable a definite amount 'earn veir until he reaches the aire of 55 (or if Preferred 60, or 65) when the bond will become fully paid, snd a fixed income for life. . This bond is not only absolutely safe, but its guarantees are such that it becomes one of the most economical investment that can be made. While it is not an insurance4ontract, it Is issued bj an insurance com pany, and the company is consequently able to "insure" the deposits made by the purchaser, with the following results: - 1. If the purchaser should die before reaching-the stipulated , f-; age, the Equitable will return the sum of the deposits that hare been 'made. ' 2. If the purchaser, after reaching the stipulated age should begin to receive the income, bat should die before the instif- ' ' mentj equal the sum of the deposits, the difference will be returned.
