"The RoguCjJlivcr'virltyy is the

that the Rogue River vnlloy tops tho
best of them. And I enn and will do

Such is William B. Lcffingwell's

ered by theso two great railroads.
Mr. Leffingwell's headquarters aro
at Chicago. He goes from hero to
the national land shows at Pitts
burg, Omaha and Chicago and as a
result the Rogue River valley will
become more widely known than ever.
While he does not confine his to
larks to any oartieular spot in tho
territory covered by tho two ronda,
he is so impressed with this vally
that it will receive a great deal of
attention at his hands.
"I have never had a moro delight
ful drive," stated Mr. Leffingwell,
"nnd never did I see a moro delight-,
ful valley or better tilled orchards.
Scientific cultivaation is evident on
all sides. I had heard much of your
valley and I am very happy that I
have found it to bo as advertised. Jt
is indeed as fair as the vnlley of tho
Lord' as one of your booklets states.
I feel that I can do a great deal of
good for you."
Mr. Leffingwell regretted that ho
was not able to visit Crater lake this
season but will return to gnthor da
ta on it next year. Ho intends to do
vote an entire lecturo to tho lako af
ter he has had a nopportunlty of
