DUGS OFTHE WEEK Current Events of Interest Gathered From the World at Large. WIDOW AND DAUGHTER OF FINANCIER, WHO WILL SPEND AUGUST IN IDAHO. NDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE GINSENG RETURNS BIG. Proceeds of $22,000 an Acrt Are Realized. Medford.—That $22.000 an acre can be realized from ginseng In the ttugue River Valley Is the statement of E. F. Graham, of Prospect, who has been experimenting with tin plant tor years. On a homestead of 160 acres Mr. Graham began his experiments and he now has one eighth of an acre producing the val uable plant. Three-year-old glngseng roots hav a market value of from $0 to $8 pound and roots from 8 to 12 yearn old will net ag high us $20 a pound After three years of work uttendlug to one-eight of an acre of the root Mr. Gruham has received $2000 for the product of Ills area. The cost of starting In the business Is very great and It Is fur this reason that no more land wus set out. The ginseng root is marketable only In China, where the light yel low roots are used by the Chinese for every conceivable domestic pur pose. Specimens of peculiar shape demand, almost, their weight 111 gold because of their suppose occult pow ers. By replanting the roots freaks are produced. Government Investigation of the plant discloses the fact that there Is no Bpecles of Insect nor any fungus growth that bothers the plant, hut there Is a law to the effect that the plants must be Inspected each year by a Government Inspector. Profes sor P. J. Ogara, ex-Government path ologlst and now employed by the Jackson County Fruit Association who has Just returned from Inspect lug Mr. Graham's place. Is Inclined to believe that this valley Is one of the few places In the world where glngseng may be successfully raised FIRE WARNING9 SENT OUT. ASSAY OFFICES DOOMED. Government Says Operation Considerable Loss, Is By Washington, D. C. — More land marks of the Old West will begin to disappear January I, unless congress should pass legislation to maintain the Western assay odices on their present basis. The government has decided to double the charge ^for assaying at Deadwood, Carson, Salt Lake, Helena, Boise, and Seattle. Members o f con gress from those places protest that increased charges will close the offices because the mining companies will prefer to send their gold to the mints, where the assaying charge will not be increased. Treasury ofiicials say the office have been a dead loss for years. Se attle, they say, does quite a business in assaying gold that comes from Alaska, but at all others the govern ment loses money. The government established most of these offices in the stirring days when a messenger setting out with fortune in his saddle bag often failed to return, and the professional “ as sayer’ ’ was classed with the can! sharper and the “ gun man.“ No miner was assured of an honest assay o f his treasure. But with the advent of mining ma chinery the offices became less useful because many of the big companies sent their gold direct to the mints.
