Tho purpose of the convention Is
to hear comments upon tho country

kano county, the first to be estab
lished in the United States, and upon
its success depends largely tho ccre
atlon of similar districts in many
other parts ot the Northwest.
The plan, outlined at tho confer
ence here last year, has slnco at
tracted the attention of the fore
most educators and sociologists of
the world, who see in its adoption
tho solution of the problem of how
to Improve and popularize farm life
nad agricultural pursuits, whilo Its
projectors believe the practical appli
cation ot the Idea will do more than
any other popular movement to at
tract a desirable class of borne mak
ers and producers to tho sparcely
settled districts of the Northwestern
and Pacific states.
Triangle 5 Ply Collars
A better collar never was shown in the city of
Medford. Every man who buys these collars conies
back for more. The reason is they are the only i'ive
ply collars on the market and that they wear so
much longer than anything to be found at anything
near the price. Just come and try these collars-
we'll guarantee that you will always uso them.
New Neckwear
New lines of fine neckwear, mufflers, silk scarfs,
etc. If you want neckwear of quality, neckwear that
shows style and durability and a combination of the
very newest styles, we would like to have you call
here and see our line.
The assortments aro complete and you can buy
just as many as you desire.
