The Commercial club is in receipt
of 18,000 copies of ix nent "postal"
fdldor ton Medford, issued for this
community in connection with tho
'Southern Pacific company.
The pamphlet consists of eight
pases and cover, the latter printed
in four colors and gold and the in
side in two colors. Tho text was
written by C A. Mnlhoeuf- and the
work was planned and executed by
ibo publicity bureau of the Southern
Pacific passenger department at
"Portland.
B. Wells, tho manager of the
bureau, who is in Medford, states
that the mirpose of this folder is
fourfold, and that this new form of
t literature has been demonstrated to
be of great value. The folder is iu
.tended primarily for distribution by
the business men of the community
in their regular correspondence.
Thus they become daily boosters for
& greater Medford and a greater
Rogue River valley. Tho folder con
tains a return postcard addressed to
- the manager of the Commercial club,
and the sender is requested to write
the names of five other people who
may be interested in Medford. This
creates nn "endless chain" of inquir
ies which no other community can
secure. Mr. Wells states that an
other important reason for the pub
lication of this literature, which is
an innovation in connection with
community publicitj, is to demon
strate daily to the business interests
of n community that the Southern
Pacific company is constantly plan
ning new features for Bedford's
publicity campaign apart jfiora the
stipulations of the eontrncf in con
nection with the publication of the
big booklet.
Another form of literature issued
by the Southern Pacific for. Medford
is being printed locally and will be'
ready in about a week. This is a
ten-page colonist folder, 15,000 cop
ies, printed in two colons. The col
onist fares will go into effect on
September 15 and will continue for
one month. The folders are intend
ed for quick distribution and the
business and professional interests
of the city will be liberally supplied
with copies. When this literature is
ready, Medford will have received
four forms of literature from the
passenger department of tho South
ern Pacific. Other forms are under
contemplation for publication in the
near future, so that Medford will re
ceive far more and better literature
than ever before nnd sufficient to
meet all needs.

"We supported measures to force
