RooBevelt was right when he said
race suicide was the one great evil
of our country. All other evils that
can befall us are nothing compared
to this blight which cuts short a full
crop of babies. No wonder Napoleon
the First became alarmed at con
ditions which prevailed In Frame at
one time during the twenty-five year
war. Men left their wives and Join
ed the great general who was almost
overrunning the world. They be
came fond of the nomadic life and
much attached to the army which
offered plunder and fortune and they
forgot wife and home. The general
saw the conditions and finally issued
a decree divorcing all wives of
soldiers who had been alone a certain
number of years. When asked why
he did this he explained that a na
tion whose birth rate fell below Its
normal stage was doomed to certain
decay. France, he said, would he
ruined If its births fell off to any
great extent. The officials of mod
ern France only a few years ago
discovered that the birthrate had
greatly decreased and after much
study It was decided to offer a pre
mium to the mothers of large fami
lies. This was done and the rate of
birth at once Increased.
The United States, If it were not
for the hundreds of thousands of
emigrants which come to us annual
ly, would fall behind In Its birthrate.
Many of these people have increased
and multiplied rapidly which has,
as fnr, Haved the nation from destruc
tion. There is also another side to
race suicide which is of the highest
Importance. A recent writer in one
of the magazines said that there is
no escaping the conclusion that the.
baby crop Is worth more to this
country of ours than nil the corn,
...i ..... .. .. i . .
Kiir.ii, idiiiiii, neei ana poultry ,ih-dnr-ts
put together--worth more In
dollars and cents, t'nliincly frosM,
the wheat rust, the green npliU and
all the other crop and aiiiinnl
H'-ourges couldn't work so gnat a
national l!.;a:-ler as a genuine baby
famine.
And It Is simply appalling to think
what would happen to our national
temperament If babies were nhMll.1i.
ed. Our sen ;,. (,f humor would In
stanllv irliium.-rlng, and smiles
would ben, no- rarer llia:i black holly
hods. The education of parents in
all (he Utile arU ol' tenderness would

I wish to call the attention of our
fruit growers to not only the necess
ity but the advantage of growing and
saving fine specimens of exhibit fruit,
for it pays in more ways than one
and It scarcely ever falls to repay
financially. For over 20 years
hnv,. heen nn annual exhibitor at
fairs and exhibitions, and it has been
my experience that the exhibitor very
seldom fails to get well repaid in
premiums as well as receiving a
good price for his premium fruit and
besides all this, the fair, as we!) as
the community, realizes a valuable
asset in the way of notoriety and ad
vertising.
I took 4", prizes one year on my
own products ami u is neeuies u
say was well paid for my trouble.
Growers here at our district fair in
Grants Pass two years ago made good
money out of their exhibits through
premium money. Do not say you
have nothing good enough for ex
hibition. There are scores of
growers who have fruit which if put
on exhibition in good shape at the
fair this fall will bring the owner
more money than It would in any
other way. Send for premium lists
and enter for everything on the list
you grow. I have recently returned
from Ashland where I assisted in
the remodeling of the premium list
of the Southern Oregon District Fair,
and can assure you that it will be
much easier to take premiums there,
this year, than it was at Medford
last year. I have assured them of a
good exhibit from here. A first
class exhibit should also be sent to
the National Apple Show at Spokane,
where we took so many prizes last
year. The revision of the premium
list of the apple show makes it a
great improvement over last year
With careful picking nnd packing
and proper routing and arrangement
of dates the same fruit could be ex
hibited at the state fair nnd at Port
land. Think of It, gentlemen, no
exhibit from Josephine county at tin
Ahuka-Yukon-l'ai it'lr exhibition with
all our magnificent and varied re
sources and. wbal Is worse, the only
county In the state without an ex
hibit. Hut the last di.ys of the fair
will be the best and we have yi t
time to redeem our reputation. Let
US get togetlli r ii good showing ,n
our lust fruit and ru-l: It up there
and show the world that Josephine
county Is md dead but only late.
II. ('. HATKHAM.
On Friday last an accident occur
red on the Merlin road about four
mile3 north of Grants Pass. Mrs.
Ray Scovill, who lives on Louse
creek, was on her way to town in a
one-horse buggy. She had her in
fant with her and was accompanied
by her sister, Mrs. Chastaln. At the
point mentioned she noticed a rapid
ly approaching automobile. She
gave a signal to the driver of the ma
chalne to hold up, as her horse was
heeoming frk'htened. No attention
being paid, she again signaled, but
. . .1 .. I !....!
on crime me car, ine driver n-iusius
in Ktrui as the law directs. Mrs.
Scovill's horse became unmanage
able and turned over the buggy,
throwing the occupants to the
ground. The horse broke loose and
dashed away. ' Mr. Montgomery, who
lives near the scene of the accident,
came to the rescue of the party and
rescued Mrs. Scovllle from under
the broken buggy and took the party
to his home. Mrs. Scovllle was in
jured considerably, but the balance
of those In the vehicle were not hurt.
The occupants of the touring car
kept right on and paid no attention
to the two women and child, evident
ly not caring whether they were kill
ed or not. Unfortunately neither
Mr. Montgomery or the ladies dis
tinguished the number of the car,
but they were satisfied that it did
not belong at Grants Pass, being
probably a touring car from Cali
fornia on the way to the Seattle
fair. There Is too much of this reck
less running of autos and It should
be stopped. Even some of our own
home machines are run too care
lessly, especially In passing carriages
containing women and children.
They forget that the law provides
that persons on foot or In carriages
have the right of way and that auto
drivers, must stop on signal of any
citizen with a team. If the number
of the big touring car which fright
ened Mrs. ScoviU'e horse had been
taken the offenders could have been
arrested in any town in this state
through which they might he pass
In:', and made to pay not only dam-v;-
s but .'. big fine as well.

lidding three tons to the an
each cutting, have already been har
vested. The first crop was cut In
June and the second in July. Mr.
Jackson expects to get six tons from
each acre In the next two cut; lugs,
making n total of twelve tons.
"At the market quotation or u
a ton. Mr. Jackson' inn-acre alfal
fa field will yield hi 111 $12,000. If,
as predicted, owing to a general
shortage of liny In the Northwest, the
price of alfalfa advanced to $1S, the
gross receipts from the crop will
reach $21,(500.
"Without Irrigation It Is impiis
slble to raise four crops In a season
here, but a number of alfalfa grow
ers of the Totii'het valley will har
vest three crops. Alfalfa growing Is
In Its Infancy In the valley, but the
Industry Is developlnn rapidly."
