J\»ille Is Flattered
One of the most outstanding traits of
Jacksonville has been its proclivity for
making, and keeping, friends. The old
town, dozing languidly under her canopy
of shade trees and nestling comfortably
where mountains and valley meet, last
week was the recipient of a gift from a
family whose name has been closely en­
twined in all her history and growth.
Last Friday Ben B. Beekman, son of
the famous banker-footracer, C. C. Beek­
man, delivered to Jacksonville School
District No. 1 a quitclaim deed to nearly
four acres of desirable property used as
athletic and recreational center as his
most recent gift to the physical well­
being and health of the community. The
block of ground, always at the disposal
of local school scholdren and citizens,
was deeded, without cost to the school
district, by Beekman in memory of his
father, who served as school board mem­
ber here at various times during his use­
ful and interesting life.
Jacksonville’s citizens should appre­
ciate this latest expression of traditional
Beekman loyalty for their city. The gift
should stir their civic interest and pride
in the old town that has produced riches
in gold and treasures in friends.

It is with much interest we note
the addition of another shift at
the Pacific States mill. This
speaks for itself, both for the man­
agement and the mine. The Opp
mine operations are of primary
importance to the industry in
southern Oregon. The continuation
of the ore with depth and quantity
in the mine, together with good
values, bears out the writer's con­
tention that values do go down in
some of the mines north of the
California line. Legal subdivisions
never determine ore deposits.
Right in line comes two shifts
working at the custom mill of the
Jacksonville Gold Mining company
at Jacksonville. Quartz mining is
increasing fast and there is room
for much more. Custom mills and
leasing made many a good mining
camp and. with the advance in
price of gold, southwestern Oregon
is in the making.
Graham and Summers, et als,
have completed their ore chute
down the mountainside where the
ore is now easily transported to
the two-stamp mill. This property
is known as the Scott mine and
is situated on the south side of
Humbug creek. It promises to con­
tinue production for many years.
Highgrade ore is now being
mined in the Barron mine and
shipment of another car will be
made soon. This is one of the few
silver and gold mines in the state
of Oregon.
Recent figures, carefully com­
piled, give an approximate produc­
tion of gold for 1933 from Jack-
son county of >365,000. This is
considerably more than produced
in 1932. Due to the advance in
price of gold, 1934 probably will
reach near one-half millions dol­
lars, and with quartz mills in­
creasing their output, may reach
even more, despite extremely low
water levels prevailing.
Silver has started its advance.
Purchase of silver now is under
way by the government. Consid­
erable buying is being made from
foreign countries. The embargo on
exports took the wind out of the
sails of silver speculators. Looks
like our old Uncle Sam is getting
wised up and means to give the
producer and consumer a break
instead of letting the middleman
get the cream.

Sapping the Land
Although it may seem like carrying
coal to Newcastle, the Eugene Fruit­
growers association is shipping a car­
load of canned vegetables to California
markets every other day. High quality
of Oregon irrigated vegetables places
them in demand with the most particu­
lar of purchasers, who tire of the woody,
water food products of the great Cali­
fornia commercial farms.
The Rogue river valley also has irri­
gated fertile land that produces some of
the most excellent of vegetables. A
friend of this country has made a study
of the quality grocery stores in sub­
urban Oakland, and reports that they
would take many truckloads of fine pro­
duce from southern Oregon.
Farmers of this county would do well
to consider the possibilities of the Cali­
fornia market. Needless to say, Califor­
nians have overlooked nothing in the
Oregon market. This state is a conven­
ient dumping ground for their surplus
stuff. The best produce market naturally
is the populous and comparatively weal­
thy sections of California, and we of I
southern Oregon should be especially in­
terested in the bay district, which is
easily available as an export market.
Just how this marketing could be car­
ried out requires some study, but it
seems some sort of farm cooperative
would be the thing. The Eugene Fruit­ estate of Sam Chisholm, deceased. lion. ux plaintiff recovered judg­

8 o’clock. These are pictures taken
by H. D. Kern of Medford and
were made to obtain a historical
record of the celebration of Ore­
gon's 75 years of statehood. Mem­
bers of the jubilee committee who
have previewed the films are en­
thusiastic in their praise of the
excellent photography and treat­
ment of a difficult subject. The
true pioneer spirit back of the
celebration has been captured by
the camera and a complete story
is told in a most entertaining man­
ner.
Mr. Kem Is head of the adver­
tising department of The Califor­
nia Oregon Power company and
his professional training as an ar­
tist is evident throughout the en­
tire picture. Beginning with the
first announcement in the daily
paper that the celebration of Ore­
gon's 75th anniversary would be
held in Jackson county, the smooth
flowing story proceeds to show:
the spreading of the news of the
forthcoming celebration . . . the
hurry and bustle of preparation
in advance of the crowds . . . the
arrival of visitors including the
special trains of the Shriners ¿nd
the 17 airships from southern Cali­
fornia (showing their flight over
the Siskiyous from the air) . . .
intimate views of United States
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace’s
visit to honor Oregon pioneers . . .
night scenes of the coronation of
the daughter of Oregon's first
governor as queen . . . the rodeo,
with closeups of its thrills and
spills . . . the crowds that filled
the streets . . . the preparation
and assembling of the multitude,
in pioneer costumes, that partici­
pated in the parades (many of
them real pioneers) . . . the mag­
nificent spectacle of the parade . ,.
and the fashion show of the his­
torical wedding gowns that were
worn when Oregon was bom . . .
are some of the highlights of the
film.
Some of the scenes photo-
graphed are the only records in
existence of these historical events.
Mr. Kem was persuaded to go to
considerable personal effort and
expense to obtain these pictures
because of the historical import­
ance of the celebration.
W. B. Roberts of Medford will
lupervise the musical accompani­
ment and sound part- of the pro­
gram. In addition to the three
reels of diamond jubilee pictures a
two-reel amateur comedy will also
be shown. Miss Harriet Sparrow,
of Central Point, is in charge of
the program and is receiving con­
gratulations upon the success of
her efforts to secure the first pub­
lic showing of this picture. The
program is open to the public.

Home Repair Loans
May Be Secured As
Well As Mortgages
The United States government
is now making home repairs and
remodeling loans, in addition to
the loans made home owners for
refinancing their mortgages. Many
people are under the impression
that if they already have a home
owners’ loan they cannot borrow
money from the government to fix
up or remodel the interior and ex­
terior of their homes. This is not
the case, as those who have al­
ready borrowed from the Home
Owners’ Loan corporation are en­
titled to the reconditioning the
same as those who are now mak­
ing application to have their mort­
gages taken over by the corpora­
tion. Again, those who own their
homes clear of mortgage but who
are unable to obtain reconditioning
loans from private lending agen­
cies are entitled to the benefits of
this department.
Three distinct operations have
been earmarked by the govern­
ment. Repair and maintenance is
first, including all work designated
to restore a house to its condition
when new, such as painting, point­
ing of masonry, calking of doors
and window frames, roofing, re­
placement of gutters, down-spouts,
floors, plumbing, etc.
Remodeling is next in order, in­
volving structural changes, such
as enlargement, addition of a
bathroom, a porch, window, rear­
rangement of rooms, or any other
alteration in the design.
Modernizing, the third operation,
involves Installation of new equip­
ment, such as insulation, heating
plant, electric system or running
water.
Those who wish to repair or
make their homes more livable and
attractive should make immediate
application to their district Home
Owners* Loan corporation office.
