Tomorrow morning Grants Pass will he visited by seventy-odd of the llvest business men in the west. They are principal factors of the largest firms la San Francisco, and are here to get personally acquainted with the southern Oregon men with whom they do business. In this pursuit they will become acquainted with others with whom they have not heretofore none easiness, iney bsk uai no special reception be given them, and this will operate to show them busi ness conditions as they exist from day to day, unaffected by any arti ficial stimulus. Now these men from the Golden Oate are not only alive, but they ap preciate the value of that quality in others. In carrying out their request of no reception we are handicapped, for they come here directly from Coos Bay, where the biggest Industrial celebration In the history of that country Is being held. But a live, nappy reception In our individual places of business, an appearance of "something doing," and an optimistic Una of conversation that is backed up T all kinds of "pep will make more Teal Impression on these southern live-wires than all the confetti spread oa Coos Bay. Make them realise the presence of a current that Is charging the atmosphere locally and they will vast to do more business with us. Business means prosperity,,. JTJST GOD'S COUNTRY AND OURS When Jim Jones shoulders his SO-JO and goes out Saturday night, to return Sunday with a fat buck tleer, he terms it merely "buck-meat." The W oman Who Knows the one perfume which suits her the exaSi style of dress which becomes her the particular type of person she en joys as a friend: Such a woman fwe are sure,will appre ciate the assistance of theTaste Packet" in deciding just which tea-favor precisely suits her taste.

But the scientist who lores his hunting, his "buck-meat" and his science, tells of the haunts and habits of "The Columbia Rlack tall.M Theodore S. Van Dyke, of Los An geles, who combines those admired qualities of hunter-scientist. Is a re cognised authority on the deer fam ily on the Pacific coast. For the American Sportsman's Library he contributed some years ago a work entitled the "Deer and Elk of the Pa cific Coast." Including the following extracts regarding the territory which local hunters frequent. "The best hunting is farther south, where the timber is more open and the brush lower. Nothing can sur pass that part of southwestern Ore gon which the blank space on the map shows unsurveyed, especially on the headwaters of the Coqullle river and in the Rogue River mountains. It is so rough that the hunter seldom goes there, while the scarcity of feed in places makes It no trifling mat ter to keep your horses strong enough to take you out again. But It is a grand, picturesque country, the na tural home of the elk as well as the deer, abounding in grouse, mountain quail, and trout, and well worth a visit by one who wants to see the wtld and the new, far beyond the or bit of the tenderfoot or his stylish guide. "Unless much persecuted, the ma jority of deer will he found, not where the chinquapin is dwarfed by cold to a mere mat along the ground, on top of which one can almost walk, but where the aunny tinge of the golden-leaved live-oak warms the heavy shades, where the sugar-pine bends Its flattened crown over the tall shaft of the incense-cedar that rises red and shaggy from the hill side below; and even farther down where the alder weaves arcades over the hissing brook In which the trout begin to flash, where the call of the mountain-quail rings along the tumbling hills, and the wings of the dove whistle through the silvery sheen of the fir. From there down to the foot-hills, and in their shaggy pockets, and so on to the very shore of the shining sea, this deer will be 'found wherever there is cover enough J ' to furnish hiding." j .

From the valley of the Chetco, across the Bald Mountain country and the lower Rogue, to the white water of the Coqullle, we all recall dosens of spots of which the foregoing do scrlption gives only the key to the masterpieces wrought by Nature. A primitive Instinct to kill one's food and a civilised appreciation of an artistic Nature form a combination which today temporarily robs many a southern Oregon homo of Us father and brothers. FRENCH TAKE VILLAGE (Continued from Page I) shells. French Infantrymen le!t the trenches at sundown and, vrambllng over ruined German tronche In three waves that rushed steadily forward, drove the Teutons from the north eastern corner of Maurepas in less than SO minutes of actual fighting. Detachments operating on the right broke the enemy's positions east of Maurepas with such rapidity that sev eral bodtea of German troops which had held positions in the village were surrounded and captured. The Germans made ireak counter attacks, but were beaten back, while the French advanced their lines on a front of a mile and a quarter.

WOLF CREEK .1 The passing of Dan Matthews at the age of 82, at 1 p. m. last 8uoday, In the log cabin which he built and in which he haa lived for the past fifty years, removes another of the few pioneers In this vicinity. While he had been ailing for some time, the end was sudden and rather unexpect ed. There is materia! here for an In teresting story which may soon bo written, concerning the house that never was finished and the sweet heart whose love, though strong, could not give up the east for the then wild west. There was some thing fascinating about the attach ment of this faithful old man for the place of his abode and the valley will scarcely seem the same without him. The first shipment of Bartlett pears was made early In the week, E. Bacchus. F M. Stason and W. G. 8mlth Joining In the shipment, which went via Grants Pass. Next year It Is hoped carload shipments of several varieties can be made from this point. W. O. 8mlth has sold his Winter Ban anas on the trees st a fair figure. The trees, now In their eighth year, have been bearing every year since their fourth and the fruit haa hitherto been disposed of to friends in Oregon and California and has won high praise. The apples have been kept each year till well on In May and are of finest flavor. 8oudan grass has been a disappoint ment here, and while some grew to over eight feet tall, the yield was light, not over one-tenth of what the same ground would have yielded In oat and vetch hay. 8ome was drilled with the beet drill and cultivated, and some was sown broadcast, from five to eighteen pounds to the acre.
