Entered at the Ashland, Oregon, PttlceMjgc ARB COUNTY LIBRARIES A SUCCESS? The first county library ever In existence Is located at Van Wert, Ohio. Mr. J. S. Brumback of that city made provision in his will for the gift of a library building. His heirs felt that the use of the library should be free to all the people of the county and they offered the building to the county on condition that it should support the library by taxation. Nothing of the sort had ever before been attempted and a special act of the state legislature was necessary to enable the county to accept the offer. That was in 1898. In the paBt twenty years the county library idea has spread amazingly. Twenty states have passed county li brary legislation or established county library systems. California, the state where the plan has reached Its farthest development, first passed a county library law in 1908. Now forty-two of its fifty-eight counties are taxing themselves to ' support county wide library service. Our own state first passed a coun ty library law in 1903 to permit the Portland library to serve all Multno mah county. In 1911 the law was amended to permit any county to establish a county library. Wasco, Hodd River and Umatilla counties took advantage of the opportunity and have since maintained county systems. 'The experience of Umatilla county shows the development possible un der a county system, as compared with a city system in the same ter ritory. For the four years previous ' to establishing the county library, the Pendleton city library had a to tal of 2271 readers and 4733 books which circulated 84,673 times. At the end of the next four years the Umatilla County Library, which suc ceeded the Pendleton city library, bad 7820 readers and 13,600 books which circulated 195,527 times. Thus in a four year period under the county system there was an In crease in books, readers and number of books read of more than 300 per cent. CASH PRIZES FOR DISPLAYING OREGON PRODUCTS Through the Women's Home In dustry club of Ashland, retail mer chants are offered three cash prises of $25.00, $15.00, and $10.00 tor three best window displays of Ore gon products, during Home Products Week, October 13 to 18 Inclusive. These are reconstruction days and the entire world is making effort to get business back to a peace basis. In years befoie the war Oregon was too Indifferent to the industrial possibilities of the State. We put In our time cashing in on raw ma terials and did not consider the fu ture. A tree cut down and removed takes from the community just that much wealth and leaves us that much poorer. The industry that spells future suc cess and development is the kind that can be replaced. Think of the possibilities connect ed with fruits, berries vegetables. wool, seeds, all of which may be raised, canned, marketed and re placed again next year and Increases made as new markets are developed. It is the job of every cltlien to do his or ber part to stand behind the Oregon manufacturer, to use bis pro duct and help him expand so that be may reach out to distant markets and bring In new wealth. This Home Products Week has for Its only object the Idea of stimulat ing interest in the products of the factories of Oregon In sll lines. Merchants owe the Oregon country their best help to build up payrolls and It Is hoped that not one com mercial slacker will be found In making the week of October 18 to 18 a great big success. Mrs. C. B. Lamkin Is chairman of the Ashland Home Industry club, and the ladies of that organisation are ready to support the merchants who Indicate tbe community spirit. Recent official figures gave tbe population of Australia as 5,030, poo. Home Proecl Committees Plan The Home Demonstration Project committees in conjunction with the Jackson County Farm Bureau have planned their work for the coming season which will be carried on un der the various departments. The child welfare committee rep resents fourteen communities. In each of these communities effort will be made to decrease child mor tality and increase resistance to dis ease by emphasizing better care and feeding. Bach community chairman plans to make a survey of all chil dren In the community as to whether they are below normal weight and then follow this up by trying to bring every child In the community up to normal by supplying the things which the child needs in or der to do this. The home management and home study tour chairmen met together and made plans for promoting batter equipment, more efficient methods of work and improving sanitary con ditions. There are twenty commu nities In Jackson county taking eith er one of these projects or both. A greater effort . will be made to in stall some of tbe simple home made labor saving devices as well as some of the other conveniences that make farm life happier for the farm wont' an. The food and clothing project which nine communities have taken up Includes any of the problems con nected with the following: Food, Preservation, Production, Values and Preparation, and Clothing, Renovat ing and Remodeling, Dressmaking Adaptation of Commercial Pattern and the study of Textile Fibre as to adulteration and characteristics. A survey will be iiiirto In each of these communities to find out what phase will be taken up this fall and winter. The past few months have been spent on preserva tion of food in. the canning and drying work. It is the object of this project to make the knowledge of food prac tices, which make for better and more economical living, a universal knowledge; as well as to help solve the problems In clothing the family at a time when there i scarcity of all textile fibres.

A look at the bote! registers every day throughout this summer is sufficient to refute this arraignment. Never before In the history of Ashland hag tourist travel been any better than it has this summer, notwithstanding tbe Immense number of tourists who have stopped a the auto-camp. The uptown hotels get very little tourist travel going through here by train, while the fact that Ashland has a camp draws travelers here, even If they do not stop at the camp. For a few days this summer the dining rooms at the Hotels Austin and Ashland were closed. The occasion of the former closing was due to in ability to secure help, while the din ing room ot the latter wus closed in order to allow the proplretor to take her vacation, ifs she could not get sufficient help to run it during her absence. Instead of being an injury tbe auto-camp has been a help to the hotels of Ashland. ABOARD U. S. S. GEORGE WASHINGTON. King Albert has received his tasje of American speed.
