Statistics Show the Country's Farms
Keep Up With' Growth of
Population.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2. In spire
of the declaration that the produc
Hon of foodstuffs is not keeping pace
with the growth of population, llic
department of agriculture has issued
a statement showing that the United
States is moro than holding its own
in the task of feeding its pcopb.
Tho bureau of statistics is author
ity for the declaration that during
the fiscal year the imports of l':.im
products into tho United St-iloi were
valued at $540,000,000, which was
$14,000,000 less than in 100B and
$87,000,000 less than in 1007.
. That tho American tnrmoi is .iwaic
ening to tho necessity for cbser and
moro extensivo cultivation of his land
is evidenced by the fact thai d'lnng
soven years prior to 1000 more than
one-half of the total imports into the
country consisted of farm oroduel
iu tho nine years since 1900 much
Iobs than ono-half of tho imports have
been products of tho farm.
A peculiar feature of tho report is
tho fact that with tho oxcoption of
sugar of which the exportation from
Hawaii increased $12,000,0i'0 and
from Porto Itico $4,000,000, there
was no incrcnso.in agricultural prod
ucts from any of tho dependencies of
tho country.
In fact thoro lias been a decrease
iu the materials brought Mere from
tho nation's insular "possessions.

We feel that the people of Rogue River Valler have made

terests. The store has grown until now we are selling
as muGh goods in three days, alone, as we sold in the en
tire month at the beginning, or two years ago. We want
to thank the people for their liberal patronage, and to
assure you that we are keeping our stock well assorted
our values seGond to none in the United States and our
priGes as low as is possible for a store to sell goods and
pay expenses but' with a very meager net profit. You

A Study for Milady.
The all-absorbing subject of suita
ble, beautiful and becoming gowning
that shall conform to tho prevailing
styles and at the same time show
woman's own indviduality and taste,
is one of constant interest to women
of every ngo, as that which adds to
her attractiveness increases her pow
er socially nnd in the business world.
Careful study of modes, -colors and
typos with a discreet adaptation to
individual requirements gives a wom
an tho assurance of being correctly
gowned, when sho is free to forget
her looks and dovoto herself unre
servedly to the task of tho hour,
often moro inoxcusablo variety is
evinced by the carelessly dressed
woman who claims to live above a
consideilition of clothes thnn is dis
played by her trim and correct sis
ter, who studios her figure and the
styles. The ono knows something is
wrong with her appearance, but has
not tho knowledge to correct tho er

BECK To the wifo of Mr. Heck,
n nine-pound dnughtor.
with all weight suspended from the
sho.uldors, is comfortablo to wear,
easy of adjustment and is adapted
alike to business and shopping. The
soft new tones of gray, green and
roso are universally becoming and in
thoso plain, popular styles, devoid of
elaboration color bears an impor
tant part in the general effect of the
gown. With a handsome fur neckpiece
nnd big muff, these dresses may be
worn till Into iu tho season without u
coat. i
Not every woman is blessed with
tho figure of a Juno, but on the well
proportioned and graceful form tho
Jersoy topped dress is the most fas
cinating of the season's models. How
ever, nny dress laying claim to dis
tinctiveness, is cut on tho oncpieco
lines and in taffetas, messalines and
soft, dull finished silks, with duo at
tention to elnbpration of detail, are
unrivaled in popularity for moro cer
emonious wear.
A look through tho stores of Med
ford will rovcal tho fact that these
fascinating models can bo procured
for about tho price orio would havo to
pay for making nlono.
