ot tho subject.
Of travel and ndventlure, tho most
fascinating book is that of "A Vag

by Harry Franck, a young university
man who mado tho Journey around
tho world absolutolyl without money

"Tho Prolongation of Llfo" by Ello
Metchinkotf, gives attention espec

the means ot prolonging llfo nnd
health through an attitude of seren

Eliot's "Religion of tho Futuro"
Is a masterpiece, and Oragl's "Nelts
scho in Aphousin" will present in

The last juvenile books nro "Wil
derness Pets" (Breck) and "Kings
in Exilo" (Roberts), both fascinat

"I mado my boastful statement
bout the fines tho police court was
gathering In the wrong company I
-gueea," said Mayor Canon Saturday,
-as ho gazed woefully at tho police
court blotter, "because ever since the
publication In the Mall Tribune of
tho amount tho police court had col
lected wo haven't had but one 'live
one and ho only contributed ?5.
Moat of the fellows that havo come
op beforo mo have been 'clean' of
-money If not in person, and if I had
to depend on the fines collected for
njr livelihood my visible means of
support would bo very onerous."
E. J. McKeon, who said he had
job but that it was too bard work,
"was given until noon to get to work
or to leave town. It took two po
licemen to lake him to Jail Friday
"afternoon. "If bo would use half
tho energy in working that he did in
"fighting us," oaid Chief Shearer, "he
-would bo a mighty good man on any
Job."
James Carey was drunk and some
what noisy. Ho was given the usual
fine and Instructions. "Go to work
or leave town." James thought he
"would leave.
John Collins was the "live one"
captured Friday morning. John
thought tho policeman was joking
until ho got behind tho bars, then he
lost hi sense of humor. He had
'17.95 on him. Judgo Canon ap
propriated $u of that and allowed
Collins to depart with the balance.

A Wonderful Discovery
for Medford.
"Cleanliness is next to Godliness." Mr. Alloa's Portable Bath Ap
paratus is a marvel. It combines in one simple, inexpensive appa
ratus all tho advantages known to modern bathing. Heats sufficient
water within six ninutes at the cost of only 1 cent. A bath can bo
taken in any room without tho possibility of soiling carpets or rugs.
Only one can understand the real merits of this bathing apparatus
by having it demonstrated to you, Mr. II. Fox, who has tho oxolusive
igonoy for Jackson county, will visit the homes of Medford and vi
cinity and demonstrate it. When ho comes to your home, invito him
in, and ho will show you tke merits of this 20th century invention.

Where Are You Going?
This Direct Question is Addressed to All
FARMERS who havo sold thoir ranches, and also applies
particularly to thoso who expect to sell this fall. Don you
intend to engage in the business of alfalfa growing, dairy
ing, cattle, hog or chickon raising? Or do you prefer tho
orchard industry, where you can plant any varioty of fruit
you can think of Figs, Oranges, Lomons, Olives, Poachos,
Apricots, Prunos, Poars, Ohorrios, Applos, Walnuts, Al
monds, Grapos, otc, otc, whoro Borrios and all kinds of
Gardon Truck and Corn grow to perfection, whoro two
crops of Potatoes can bo harvested each year, if you will
take tho troublo to plant them'?
If You arc Interested in These Matters, Read Qui
AT THE UPPER END OF THE GREAT SACRA
MENTO VALLEY, CALIFORNIA, there is a tract of tho
finest land in the world, all of which can bo irrigated, and
carries with it title to a perpetual wator right.
THE SOILS aro from 15 to DO feet in depth, arc of
a dark sedimentary loam, nature studded all over with
gigantic oaks, park-like in effect, and drained by several
rapid streams that flow into tho Sacramento river.
THE WATER SUPPLY is from tho Los Molinos riv
er, which rises at Mt. Lassen, .1 0,400 feet high, and is per
petually clad with snow.
THIS RIVER carries tho most water during the sum
mer months when the snow is melting, and at tho timo
when the water is most needed. Remember, this state
ment about tho water supply. Transporation now by rail
road, main line Southern Pacific, station on our lands; by
river steamors, from three landing places, and noxt vear
the
ELECTRIC LINE will be completed and running
through our lands, .Red Bluff to Ohico to Sacramonto, now
operating between Ohico and Sacramento, which puts you
in touch with cash markets for all and anything you wish
to produce and at highest prices.
WHY ARE CALIFORNIA FRUITS AND VEGETA
BLES SHIPPED TO PORTLAND, SEATTLE AND
THE NORTH?
Because we enjoy a ten months' growing season and
can ship early and late. You can plow and plant every
month in the vear, thus doubling your profits.
AND ALFALFA THIS IS ITS NATURAL HOME.
Six cuttings per season, producing 10 to 12 tons per acre,
which sells for an average price of nine dollars per ton
in the stack.
To a practical farmer the abovo conditions mean suc
cess and independence.
In seeking a new location you owe it to you reel f and
to your family to investigate this proposition. These
lands, including a perpetual water right, sell at $150.00
per acre, one-fifth down and balance in four equay annual
payments. T make several trips each month to show these
lands.
Come in and make arrangements to join our next par
ty. The expense is small, and we will be gone only a few
days. Tf, after investigation, you find that a single mis
representation has been made, I" will willingly refund your
expenses. ' $
