Mr. I'uber says tho county school iuperhiteiident could do tho county more good In tho capacity of (caelum In tho' rural districts, and cites as an cxamrilc, tho school In district No. 100, saying that "a number of pupils residing In this district will pats tho now school and attend Medford or Central Point schools for tho reason of better efficiency,' etc. WVaro not; herein, supporting cither side In tho discussion of school aupervisloa hut Mr. Fabcr's letter Is a pretty hard-rap at District No. 100 aud its teachers, aHd Is as unjust as It tB' untrue, Tlicro aro no grammar grado pupils Pacini; this building to attend school cluewlioro for any reason. Mr. Ben son In tho northern part of tho dis trict Ponds his ouo daughter to Cen tral Point, as ho said before our building was completed, bo feared having tbo child sit In a new brick building or account of the dampness. Mr. Hooft, In tho southern part of tho district sends bis granddaughters to thovAdvont school because of relig ions views. No others attend school outs-ldo of our district. Itegardlng the efficiency of the school and teachers, wo aro second to none In tho county, Central Point mid Medford Included. Tho directors have Hpured no effort and have made ever)' necessary expenditure to secure the very best teachers the county could brodtiee and the most cotnpleto equipment obtainable, and tho par ents, of tho attending scholars agree that their children never before pro gressed as rapidly and were never as thorough as they have been during this school year, I.

No land is so poor but that, given water and sunshine, something cannot be profitably produced. Our clinic, our sunshine, our soil, our natural charms luro thousands, but tho fact that wo haye not water ovet our greatest area drives thousands- away. The cui-se of the -valley has been that we canmwl do mature crops with out water, hence not realizing its necessity as an income producer, have failed to comprehend, its value. Had this boeu a, desert valley, water would long ago have transformed it into a garden spot with many times its present productive, capacity. The necessity of water, being realized, would have brought it. The only advantage the great fruit districts of tin northwest have over the Rogue River vullov is water. In t very other resueot the lvoguo Rivbr valley outclasses them. They sill were desert wastes until water trans formed them into orchard belts. Hut their water goes a long way to offset our natural advantages. There is no use attempting to disguise the fact that water is needed any more than that smudge pots are needed. "What must be done is t'o remedy our defect and it is a simple matter and lies within our grasp. All that is necessary is to grasp tho opportunity that lies before us. Five, acres of the finest soil in the valley will not sup port a family without water. With water it will. This is tho problem that lies before, us to make it possiblo for every five acres to .support the family then to get the family. This is your self-sustaining population, your pay roll, your, industrial development, your nianufacturics shipping soil products around the world. ,A very reasonable contract is npw offered the people of the valley. The water- right is sold for $50 an acre, pay able in ten annual installments after tho delivery of the waW, with $2.50 annual niaintainance.- The contracts arc placed in escrow and do not become binding unless the required acreage is signed up, and will be returned to the signer by the bank. When once the farmer or land owner realizes the value of water, he will jump ata-chanco to enhance the value of his land, double its productive capacity, provide a payroll during construction and pay for the water out of the in creased output of products. There are many water users along the present con duits who have paid the entire cost of the water out of increased revenues obtained thereby, and all should jump it a chance, which in tjjo eyes of the experienced farmer of the middle west and northwest, doubles and triples Ike value of the land. There should be no difficulty in signing up the required acreage. The peoplo,(f tlie Rogile;River valley have novji yet fallen down when they setabout a thing in earnest. A NEW INDUSTRY. 71 IE Commercial club has been successful in bringing - one 11UW indlistrv in Mi'dfnrd tln IvorimiK- Votm-ln- ary Co., which will manufacture stock remedies, thus fur nishing a market for Rogue River valley products, giving employment to a number of people, and placing goods made in Medford in every locality in the northwest. Dr. Chas. Koriuek, head of the company, was appointed by Governor Chamberlain as state veterinarian and was for a number of years president of the state board of ex aminers for veternarians. The company received the most flattering endorsement of the committee appointed by the Commercial club and came recommended as worthy of the respect and con fidence of tho community. The factory will bring cash in payment for goods at Medford, will establish a small pay roll to start with, and with the exceptionally fine line of goods manufactured bidsifaiitto extend imtil it wil be a. factor jn. the otv's gfowfli. -, ' , ' .

Lloyd Gcorgo backed away when ho wua addressed by Mrs. Norton, a Yorkbblro weaver. "I ara hero with a warning," sho begun. "If votes arc not granted to women at this session of Parliament, i warn you hero und now that tho performances of militant suffragettes will look like pin pricks compared to What wo will do in the future." Hlght hero thu Chancellor declared himself in fuvor of givlug the vote to women; "Personally," ho said, "I favor the Dickinson amendment enfranchising houselioldors and the wlvcsof- house holders, but I hereby pledge tho sup port of tho government to any amend ment acceptable to tho House ' of Commons," , DAVID LLOYD-GEORG MT5DF0R0 MATT, TRITONR MODffi KAffl PENALTY IN STATE 8ALKM.
