Reasonably fair catches of salmon have been made by the gill netteri along the stretch of open water be low Grants Pass since the fishermen .at the mouth of the stream were re quired to obey the provision) of the law. With the enforcement of the fishing laws on all portions of the stream there is small cause for com plaint upon the part of any one. Re gulated commercial fishing and prop er observance of the laws does not in any way Interfere with the sport fisherman. If it did, it should be further controlled, for the glory of the Rogue is in Its eport fishing. The salmon has a commercial value, and its value as a sport fish Is very small. It has been the abuse of the law that has put commercial fishing in bad repute. As conducted on the stretch j of open water of the upper river j there tan now be no objection. Our ; fishermen are following the letter! and the spirit of the law.

It i3 a further reason why we NOW keep our own Goodrich Prices DOW N to the very moderate "Fair-List"' figures here quoted.

A loft, to 50ft. higher price could well be justified for these same Tires, by fair comparmn with oUier Tires sold at 15 to 50 higher prices. Will you help your own interests (present and future), by further expanding the Sale of that Tire which demonstrates its Intention, through LOWERING tho Cost of its Tires to you, with every INCREASE in its Volume? Will vou thus endorse, and support, the Goodrich Policy which automatic ally PREVENTS OTHER Makers from forcing UP the Market on Tires? Compare Goodrich Fair-list prices, hero quoted.
