LOS, ANGELES, Cal. Aviator Frank Champion in a Bloriot mono plane today made the longest cross country flight yet, accomplished on the Pacific coast, flying from Ocean side, Cal.' to Long Beach, Cal., an es timated distance of G4 miles in 55 minutes. Although over rough coun try part of. the way, he was compcll-( cd to keep low on account of the; fog. IN 1870, George V. Snmllcy, celebrated war correspond ent and journalist, spent several mouths in the Rogue mvor valley. During the preceding years there had been some immigration to the valley and a slight reaction had followed the expansion succeeding the civil war period. One evening Mr. Smalley was at AVoodvillo. There were a large number of pioneers and old timers gathered at the store and the talk of the future was very pessimis tic. It ran in this vein: j-iuiu mi; iuuiv wviiiiiv" inn 4iv iiuui inv, livmiii 1 can support getting overcrowded too many people com ing in. "What can we dp with them all i The good old t hues have gone. The valley will go backward. The mines have played out only a little can be raised on the land. There arc no resources nothing to support the population now here. Times are bad and likely to get worse." After listening to this kind of talk for some tune, Air. bmallcy astonished the natives by the following prophecy: "I have traveled all over the world and have visited and written about nearly every civilized country, so I know what I am talking about. "The Rogue River valley is destined to be one of the most populous districts in the world. You have manv times the natural resources that districts in Europe or Asia have that sustain populations exceeding a million. "Some of you Avill live to see the day when this valley will be one large garden and orchard dotted with costly mansions and cozy cottages, with a highly cultivated and intelligent class of people, all under irrigation, and every acre of land utilized. Your' mountains are covered with forests tjiat some day will be valuable and sprinkled with precious metals and forests and mines will supply pay rolls and industries. "You do not realize what von have von two. so tisod to it. You do not' comprehend the commercial value of your climate. You do not realize the wonderful tertihtv of your soil and the variety and wealth of your undevelop ed resources. But some of you will some dav." Over 40 years have passed since this prediction was made. Some of it is beginning to be realized. Some of ii 111 1 1 t ii f us wiu sua oe auve wneu me oaiauce or tne prophecy comes true. In 1S70 the valley had but a few thousand population and the pioneers thought it was overdone. The same wail was heard from the mossback then that is heard to day and that will be heard when the population reaches a million. Next time you hear the pessimist, remember that ho was howling along the same lines 40 years ago and if lie lives will sfcll be howling 40 years, hence. OARfiDW views .

WOODVILLE BECOMING FREIGHT SHIPPING POINT RECALL JEFFRIES BECAUSE OF MOTHER'S ILLNESS LOS ANGELES, CaJ., Sept. 0. To overtake them on their bear hunt ing expedition on tho Ivcnni Penin sula in Alaska, a special train bear ing a messenger today is flying across Alaska to notify James .1 Jeffries, former champion heavy weight pugilist, nnd his brother John of the serious illness of their mother Jiere.

Tho hay crops in this part of tho country are tho best in several years.

Bagloy and Streets are perhaps tbo heaviest growers, they having baled about 250 tpns of grain nnd alfalfa hay with another crop coming on to bo kept for home consumption. Tho prices re ceived for the hay will average about S14 per ton and whon you figure three tons to tho acre an nverage yield and four crops at $lt per ton for a grand totnl of sr8$ per aero. Surely somu of our eastern brothers will sit up and tako notlco.
