We have mountains, lakes, rushing streams, and wonderful highways, and these lakes and streams abound with fish, and our forests abound with game and game birds just as they did years ago. For .a visitor coming into OregorrTrom Cal ifornia, as they start down the Siskiyou moun tains, after crossing the state line, they get their first view of this beautiful Rogue River Valley. Ashland is the first stop, and is so beau tiful that tjie visitor regrets to have to leave, but they must see all of this wonderful land. Ashland has hotels for all clashes of travelers, and an auto park for those who .wish to camp, and Lithia auto park is by far the most beau tiful of any other.
