Ashland, Oregon, Oct
Rids for the new fire truck and

ment were opened at the regular
meeting of the city council last
night. The council accepted two
separate bids tor a total of 1100
feet of hose. The A. O. Long

Three bids were received for
the purchase of a fire truck, but
it was decided to delay final ac­
tion until Fire Chief Baughman
end a member of the fire commit­
tee might go to Portland and
other Oregon towns to see dem­
onstration!« of the various makes
of trucks in actual operation.
G. W. Trefren asked that one
company be given the right to
rlaee all garbage cans la the city,
«¿plaining that this company
would use tlie cans for advertis­
ing purposes. His propoMl was
referred to the street committee
for consideration.
At last we are located for the winter. After spending several
months traversing the coast from Seattle to Ixmg Beach, we finally
doubled hack to spend tlie winter and perhaps to locate permanently
in Ashland, our choice of all the places we have been.*
Ashland is *• f^nderful little city nestled among the foothills
of the Siskiyou Mountains, its scenic beauty, a continual source of
pleasure. It hog on* altitude of eighteen-hundred-ninety feet and an
ideal climate tha year round.
There are mineral springs here of great medicinal value includ­
ing lithia, sulphur ihd soda waters, and I have learned that rheuma­
tism, kidney and .fctbmaelt troubles are benefited and often entirely
cured by them. Many fteople come here for the benefit of the mineral
waters, some of their own volition, like myself, and others, sent here
by their doctors-
*
All cases of Asthma, as a nile, are cured by the climate alone it
being especially favorable to that malady.
In choosing Ashland as a permanent residence we found many
other favorable features such as «its many ».churches, its splendid
schools including the Southern Oregon Normal School and beautiful
Lithia Park.
Ashland has also the advantages of many sports and pastimes,
including hunting, both deer and game birds, fishing and golf.
In choosing a location oge may go high up on the mountain
side or down in the valley, he may have a city lot or an acre or more
as suits his fancy, Bud still be within the city limits.

waa finally built np to where the
shale waa thought to exist In
