Ashland, Or., Nov. 20. 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. In the east
Mount Pitt looms.
Here In southern Oregon Is scenery,
climate and pure water. What more
can be offered the tired and weary?

Ianhfield Tax Levied.'
Marshfleld, Or Nov. 10. 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.

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.

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.
Thus it will be seen that the return may be more in the case of long'
life it will be much more than the purchase price, .but can never be less.
It is true that interest will not be considered, If, in the event of premature
death, a return, as explained above, is made. But this will be offset by the;
fact that the bond Is a participating contract, and it is reasonable to expect
that small dividends of profits will be
