D. L. McXary has sold his twenty
five ncro orchard tract to M. J.

Place." Kino acres of tho land is
set to pears with peach and apricot
"fillers," tho latter bcinp now in
bearing. In addition to this there
nrc six acres of younger pear trees.
The place is well situated and is one
of tho most home-like orchard tracts
in the valley, being situated on either
sido of Coleman sreck nnd having
a beautiful wooded background.
Mr. Morris who is now living in
Med ford, will erect several new
buildings on tho place this summer.
Tho price pnid for the laud was

Chas. D. Hoy.

FINAL PAYMENTS
ON WAITE TRACT
It is considered n good omen that
deferred settlement wns made with
two Ashland citizens the past week
for land comprised in what is known
as the Wni to tract across Hear creek,
says tho Ashland liccnrd. George
Stephenson received approximate
$22,00(1 as finnl payment on .183
acres sold nt $100 jwr aero n yenr
np and William Mycr received a
lesser payment as tho bnlnncc due
him for 3011 acres which ho nNo sold
a year ap nt $100 per acre. The
latter tract bad been in tho Mycr
family since 1872 and wns known ns
the old New house donation claim.
The payment of these large amounts
at this time, is indication that there
is money back of the movement now
on to settle them and make them ac
cessible by means of nil iulcnirbnn
line. Tho money came by check
from tho Italfour-Guthrie company
of Portland which it has been under
stood for somo time wns backing Mr.
Waitc in his activities in the valley.
This company is n wealthy coucem
interested in a big steamship lino nnd
grain commission business.
