W. Stewart and family have gone to Chico, California, where they will reside permanently. Orval Millard, Josephine county district attorney, announced Tues­ day, that the Frances Cason ranch of 224 acres, near Holland, had been sold to Robert E. Hill of Ok­ lahoma City, Okla. The ranch is one of the old time farms of the valley, and has been leased for the past few years by J. H. Beck. Mr. Beck will still take care of the ranch until Mr. and Mrs. Hill come to make the ranch their future home. Known as the old Seyferth ranch, and one of the most de­ sirable pieces of property in the valley, it has had several own­ ers, Mrs. Cason being the last owner. Mr. Hill is a wholesale merchant in Oklahoma City and when he conies to the valley he plans to re­ tire from active business and cul­ tivate his new property. He plans many ihprovements and innova­ tions on the ranch when his fam­ ily come to live and plans to ex­ tensively cultivate the entire prop­ erty.
