I ill MAYOR GATES IS PRINCIPAL SPEAKER AT ( HAMI1KB OF COMMERCE FORl'M Ll'NCH; INSISTS OX LAROK OOINTY Fl'ND FOR STATE FAIR EXH1B-ITS. Straight ahead (or Jucksou coun ty In taking the lead ut coming state fairs with greater exhibits made pos sible by larger money appropriations, and lii support of the world's exposl tion to be held In Portland In 1925, was the plea Hounded today by C. E. ("Pop") Gates, mayor of Med ford, before members of the Ashland chamber of commerce at a forum luncheon this noon at the Hotel Ash land. Mayor Gules, who is a Jackson county representative on he fair board,' stated the fair will cost the ltate approximately $6,000,000, ac cording to tentative plans now made for the raising of funds for the fair. Of the total amount, $4,000,000 will be supplied by Portland through a system of taxation, If the plans carry. The other $2,000,000 will be supplied by the remainder of the stute. The support of the 1926 exposition was urged by Mayor Gates from money-making standpoint. "Ore gon," lie said, "is like a great art room; it is filled with treasures in the way of scenery and natural beau ties. Hut you have to tell the peo pie about them. The exposition wil do that. It will bring millions' of people to Oregon." Mayor Gates cited that 100 fanii lies had settled in Medford as a (II rect result from the advertising of the Medford auto camp. "And our ramp cant compare with Ashland',' lie stated, "but is advertising. If our auto camp will do much for Med ford, what will the 1925 exposition do for Oregon? Economy is ail right at the right time, but it pays to ad vertise. The business man spends bis money tor advertising when bust ness is dull." Mayor Gates was enthusiastic about the showing Jackson county had made ut the state fair at Salem, carrying everything before it in the way' of prizes, In spite of the fact that only $95 had been allowed by the county court for use in arrang ing an exhibition. The Medford mayor was insistent that at least $500 should be allowed every year by tho county court for such pur poses. He stated that County Agent C. C. Cute and party were compelled to sell the exhibits to pay their way home, llu staled that the state fair made a profit of $20,000 against, a previous yeurly loss of between $10, 000 and $15,000. J. W. McCoy presided at the luncheon. John H. Fuller, secretary of the chamber of commerce, stated 200 teachers were expected to attend the Jackson county Institute to be hold in Ashland Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Two delegates will he selected at the In stitute to attend the state institute at Portland during the holidays. Shipments Make . Gold Hill, Oregon j Limestone Center MEDFORD, Or., Oct. 7.

Great importance attaches to the Gold Hill district with the constant operation of the local cement factory of 1,200 barrels' daily capacity, and the operation ot the state limestone fertilizer plant built at Gold Hill for the purpose of furnishing the farm ers of Oregon with fertilizer at cost. The most Important of all is the re opening of the several limestone quarries in the Gold Hill district. By 8.

PLEA (By FRAXK JORDAN) On July 4, l16, Ashland's now famous auto camp was formally opened to the public. At that time the only equipped auto camp In ex istence. Today it is known from coast to coast. Starting in a small way, but well equipped, it has been enlarged three times, yet it has been impossible to take care ot all the cars that have upplled for camping privileges this year. The park board has bought more land and will have It ready for next year. Travel has Increased to such a magultude that ( think it is impractical to have i free camp ground uext year. It will require a caretaker next year all the time to keep the grounds In a clean and sanitary condition, it will be necessary to make quite a few .Im provements before a change can satisfactorily be made. All that Is needed is to give the tourist some thing for hie money and he will be come a traveling booster. Anybody who has taken the time to stroll up through the camp grounds this sum mer cannot help but realize the valu able asset it is to Ashland. Ut w make a small charge, let the toirist pay part of the expense, get more of our home people in the habit of goingJ h iue camp una giving the tourist the glad hand, and Ashland will soon be known throughout the. jr. a, A.

Then, too, the destruction of the plant will be fell by the orchardists, as it formed a large market for cull pea in and apples. The cause of the fire is unknown, as the plant, a large one-story frame structure, was all ablase when the tire was discovered at 5 a.m. Sun day. When the firemen reached the scene the building was doomed, so much so that to throw water ou it would he a needless waste of time Mini energy. Therefore.

The firemen paid especial attention to tbe Puhl mun bakery building on Central ave nue, about .100 feet away. Fortu nately, there was no wind or breeze, and the flrn was confined to the dryer plant One conjecture Is that the fire started from a sulphur pit. Saturday afternoon had been devoted at the plant to tbe bleaching of the dried fruit through the sulphur process, the sulphur being burned in pits to bleach the exposed dried fruit white. The sulphur fire was presumably out ut 6 p.m. Saturday. No night watchman Is employed at the plant The only part ot the plant left standing: is the exterior of the large dehydrator oven, an eipensive one. which, however, is ruined.
