Opinions related to tlio value of bet
ter highway construction, pointing
out proper motliotlH of procedure,
nro given by the govornoiH and con

Idaho. One of the most valuable ar
ticles was contributed by Judgo Lion
el H. Wobstor, formerly chairman
of the Oregon Good lloads associa
tion's executive committee. Follow
ing are extracts from Home of the
opinions given:
Oovernor Oswald West: "Oregon
will never come Into hor own In the
way of development until she takes
steps to Improve her highways. There
are sections of our state great em
pires where you could lose several of
the New England states- absolutely
without means of reaching the rail
roads or markets with tholr juod
uctH except hy a two or three days'
and sometimes a week's journey over
almost Impitsnable wagon roads."
Senator (icorgo 12. Chamberlain:
"There Is no single factor that will
contribute so much to the develop
ment of the state hw (he adoption and
carryliiK out of a sound policy with
reference to road hulldliiK."
Senator V. L. .limes, Washington
"We all Book cheap transportation by
rail, overlooking the fact that a pool
road a few miles In length adds more
to the cost of the thing we buy and
subtracts nun e fiom what we hno to
sell than the cunt of hundreds of
miles of transportation by rail."
Senator Miles I'otudextor of Wash Wash
ingeon: "Hood niad la n count r

Senator W H. 1 lev bum of Idahe:
"Tho question of good ronils la n

Governor .lames 11. lluwley of Ida Ida

SCIENTIFIC FROST FIGHTING.
PRrOSIONT indications are that tlio Rogue River valley
will be one of the lew fruit districts of the entire
country to escape frost damage this spring. J3vcn here
the thermometer has hovered around the danger mark,
bul the crops will be saved through scientific methods of
righting frost.
No other fruit district in the country is so far advanced
in modern scientific methods. .Pests of all kinds, includ
ing the dreaded fire-blight, have been and are being suc
cessfully resisted. And now frost has lost its terror to the
orchardist, who has learned that a few dollars spent, in
heat'ing apparatus saves many thousands in yield.
Kxperiments here in past years have demonstrated the
fact that temperature can be raised ten degrees in orchards
by heating apparatus, so that the prospect of the coldest
night probable at this season of the year means simply
added labor to the fruitgrower, instead of a fruitless year
ahead.
For the present advanced position in the fruit world
this is the third year orchard heating has been resorted
to the Rogue River valley is largely indebted to labor and
efforts of P. ,. O 'Clara of the department of agriculture,
who after two years' work here for the government, was
loaned to Jackson county to take charge of the campaigns
against pests and frost. No money spent by the county
court is better spent, or returns a larger dividend to the
taxpayers than that spent to secure the services of Pro
fessor O'Ciara and his assistants, and the commissioners
are to be congratulated upon securing his services for
another vear.
BEAUTIFYING THE RIGHT OF WAY.
FOR the Southern Pacific's effort to beautify Medford
by parking the narrow strip of right of way between
the depot and Exhibit building, citizens are profoundly
grateful.
This little strip of park, however, is principally valua
ble as a stimulator of the city beautiful. Like the first
stretch of paving, it is an object lesson. It creates a de
sire for more. The railroad will have no peace now until
all thai section of the right of way from Sixth to Eighth
is similarly improved.
If the work is too much for the railroad, the city should
assist. No money could be better invested than in such a
park, for it would add a hundred per cent to the improve
ment of the city's appearance.
It is time that the city council acted in this matter
and arrived at a definite understanding with the railroad
officials as to what can be expected, and a program of ac
tion promulgated. The sooner the matter is adjusted
the better, for nothing is gained by delay.
The efforts of the ladies of the (Ireater Medford club
to beautify the right of way by planting shade trees and
prevent its use as a loafing ground for idle express wag
ons is to be commended and should receive the co-operation
of city officials.
