White head, pioneer banker and capitalist "and there isn't much left to remind one of the Medford of those days only the weather hasn't changed, we still have the finest autumns In the .world. "1 camo from eastern Oregon, a windy country, and when J saw how little wind there was here, 1 conclud ed to stay. There used to be a wind mill and water tank on the Southern Pacific track near the depot, but thero would be ten days at a stretch when there wouldn't be wind enough to turn it over, and the main occupa tion of the agent consisted in pump ing by hand. "Tho weather that winter was as cold as any I have seen since. It got as low as 8 degrees above zero but there isn't any noticeable change in the weather, one year for another about as uniform as possible to find." PEAR SHIPMENTS FROM THE VALLEY ARE 224 CARS Figures compiled show that 224 cars of pears have bocu shipped from tho valley to date, and with the la ter varieties It is estimated tbattho year's shipment will total at least ,2 GO cars. This la over twice tho crop in 1911 when 11C cars wero shipped. The apple crop will bo a record-breaker. Professor O'Gara estimates the year's shipments will total approxi mately p00 cars. Tho original esti mate' was between 450 and COO cars of apples. The pear market is booming at present and ranchers who have held their shipments will reap liberal re wards. One car of Bartlctts cold yes terday In New York at an average of $3.30 a box, and a car of D'AnJou from tho Daggett orchard averaged from $2 to $2.30 per box. A car of Dose from tho Druce Wilson orchard brought from f2 to $2.55 per box, the car grossing at $1857, Apple prices aro still uncertain, but tho prices will be at least equal to tho average, which, with tho bum per crop in tho valley, means pros "porlty for tho growors. Apple pick ing-lies begun in somo of the orch ards and In another week will bo In full swing. AUSTRALIA IS BUILDING TWENTY-EIGHT SHIPS - WASHINGTON, Oct.

OF greater direct importance to the Rogue 1 J Ivor vnlloy than the scramble among office seekers to guide the destinies of. tho nation are the results of the experiments conducted by the government pro-cooling exerts, which demonstrate" the fact that such perishable fruit as- the Barflctt pear can bo held for nearly two months utter picking before marketing. Bartlctts picked seven weeks ago, placed in cold stor age for a month, then kept in the refrigerator car used in transit across the country for two weeks, then exposed in a store window for a week, are found to be iu perfect con dition for the table. Tn spite of claims made for the fancier varieties of peal's, there is no finer or more delicious pear grown than the Rogue River 'Bartlett, and when permitted to ripen in cold storage, its flavor is still finer. The keeping quality of Rogue river fruit has always been famous. Rogue river European caterers of fancy or other sections, because quality, produced by the peculiar soil and atmospheric conditions that, make this region the greatest of natural frnit belts the sunshine, the altitude, and the soil. Local pears have long been noted as standing shipment better than those from any other section. Even exposed in open market, their keeping qualities are remarkable. When the pears grown in the "Willamette and other Ore gon sections wjll scarcely stand shipment to Portland, the Rogue river product has long found its markets in the Atlantic cities and even in Europe. The money in Bartlctts, as in most other perishable fruit, is in the early or the late product, when they are scarce and a novelty. If the Rogue river Bartlett can bo, hold until the immense California output is off the market,' and the inferior eastern product out of the way, fancy prices arc always realized. It has now been demonstrated that this can be profit ably accomplished, and the Bartlctts held for two months before sold. This "will add many thousands of dollars to the income of tho valley and be a potent factor in its prosperity. A pre-eooling plant is one of the necessities of the day not a small one, but a large cooperative plant, capable of taking care of the entire output. That such an institution will be among the immediate developments of the future is' without question Medford energy will solve the prob lem as it has all others forced upon it. MONEY TALES, EVEN AT FIRE SALES. . BEN" Selling, leading pant-seller and candidate for Unit ed States senator, is sending newspapers of the state, matter in the interest of his candidacy, which he asks them to publish gratis. lie makes the excuse that the corrupt practices act forbids his paying for tho same. The corrupt practices act did not prevent JNLV. Selling from spending a great deal of money at the primaries, and his friends from spending still more. Moreover, there is a suspicion that AEr. Selling is running to advertise his business as well as to secure the office, for in his campaign he hands out his business cards to those who do not want his political cards, and asks them to call at his store when in the metropolis. There is no reason why the newsparjers should print anything free for Mr. Selling. His boast is that he runs his own business on purely commercial lines, lie never gives anything away not even a pair of pants. Having commercialized politics, business principles ought to gov ern his transactions. It makes no differences, -to this paper at least, whether Mr. Selling buys its space or not. It would not support, him, as it considers him totally unfit to occupy the place he asjrircs to. If on account of racial prejudice, Senator Simon, in spite of his acknowledged ability, found himself a cipher at Washington, how much less figure would our leading pant-seller and statesman, make? Mr. Selling, as chairman of the Taft committee, repre sented the reactionary element in Oregon politics. As a supporter of Taft, he still represents this clement, al though he styles himself a "Taft progressive," whatever that ma)r mean. He represents no vital issue stands for no fundamental principle just a commercialized straddle. Mr. Selling's knowledge of Oregon is confined to the metropolis. Until he began bis campaign, lie was ignorant of the rest of the state, had never visited it, knew nothing of it, though he had lived his life in Oregon. His ignorance was shown in the state senate when he ridiculed Crater Lake as a world wonder, and vigorously fought the high way appropriation. His narrowness of vision was further emphasized when he helped slaughter the normal schools of the state and killed the only state institution in south em Oregon. Mv. Selling spent the summer in Yellowstone park. He is familiar with other states. He knows more about Europe than Oregon. He lias seen the wonders of the Alps, but is ignorant of those of the Cascades. His cam paign took him recently to Klamath Falls, within easy distance of Crater Lake, yet hcnever took the trouble to visit it in his opinion, it was not worth while, yet at the same time the most distinguished scientists of Europe thought it worth while to travel 0,000 miles to see. But even had lie seen Crater Lake, it is doubtful whether Air. Selling has the capacity to appreciate it. The newspapers should adopt Mr. Selling's own suc cessful motto, demand cash for what they sell. Giye him a bargain rate in the want Columns as a leader, perhaps, as he sells a pair of cheap pants at slight profit to induce traue, mix. give jioumig away, ju me space is worm wane, it is worth paying for, just as pants arc and no one realizes it better than our leading pant-seller and statesman. 1 A convention of tho machinists employed on tho Northern railway of Canada was held In -Toronto, Ont,, last week, Tho chief subject of dis cission was a lesolutlon to consoll data tho entire membership of that particular branch under one head.
