MEDFORD afATL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, SATURDAY, DKOFMDKR 18, 3015 WOULD PUR A MUNmONS FROM M !AR DS JACKSON COUNTY f -T ,).' t J. E. Wheeler, n dnlrymnn of Ho quinrn. Wnsli., who has boon visiting various' sections of tho vnlloy for some dnyfl is much interested in the possibilities of tho ilmiy buslr.crr here on account of our superb cli mate in nil seasons of tho year, lie regards it ns superior in mnny re spects, granting that we shall soon hnvo irrigation to enable the fanners to produce an abundance of tho right kind of feed for the dairy herd, to most dairy regions ho has visited this year. "The comfort of the cow of the dairy herd," he nays "must he tnken into consideration when one figures on obtaining the best results from her in the production of butter fat. That fact causes us to observe that the Rogue Hiver, country has one ex traordinary advantage in the matter 01 climatic conditions. Where se vere weather conditions arc frequent the dairy herd requires more feed- and it must be of the proper hind in n balanced ration. Irrigation lscntlul "The fact that your valley ,is free from radical changes in that respect timt that you can produce here, under irrigation, nn immense yield of tho best hinds of feed of a great variety, makes it an attractive dairy region. Your sugar beet proposition suirgesls an addition of u large quantity of a Kiiperior feed as a part of a general ration that mav soon bo made. Beet pulp will double the feeding vnluu of your alfalfa if properly mixed with it. Its content of carbohydrates makes it nn especially good dairy feed with alfalfa and linseed meal or soy bean meal. That combination, adding to it occasionally a ounntity of succulents, cannot be beaten. AH of these you can produce here in great abundance. Conditions I'aroinlM'l Hero "In many of the 'outride counties' I find dairymen ,jut dcvelooiutr a knotvledue of the business on modern lines. Lack of that information has caused dairy feeders to operate at loss. Those conditions are being im proved in Jacksoii county, but the im provement will be most marked in progress when you shall have obtain ed water with which to irrigate the farms and pastures for the produc tion of better feed in greater quan tity," concluded Mr. Wheeler.

SALONIKI IS NOW TARGET0F GERMANS l.ON'DOX, Dec. IK. The throat that the Gorman minister at Athens U said to hnvo mailo to tho effect that Gornmny would bo compelled to take action to drive out tho ullles at Sn lonikl If the fortification of that base continued brings the Ilalkan develop ment n stop uonror a crisis. How soon the Atistro-Gorninns cross tho G'eek frontier apparently will de pend upon how soon they aro nblo to collect sufflclont troops. The Post's Athons correspondent says that tho fact that an attack upon Snlonlkl has not yet begun Is attrib uted In diplomatic circles to tho nccoraity In which tho Germans find tbemsolvos of concentrating suffic ient forces, repairing communications destroyed by tho Anslo-Krench nnd Serbians and the bringing up of suf ficient supplies of munitions but that the moment that tlioy have made those preparations the attack will bo bosun and pushod home. Dispatches to the Daily Mall from Athens otiiuato tho total avallablo German forces at 200,000 men who however, are fatigued by continuous mountain marching and stato that It Is reported the Intended German rein forcements have been devertod to Rutehuk to meet an expoetod Russian menace. According to the Athens limUroIr, the ministerial organ, tho Greek gov ernment will address a fresh protest to the entente powers asalnst fortify ing Sitloniki Toim-KD ESr-.j-T' ' This is going to be the biggest sea son in skating the country has seen in twenty years. So says Jtilinn T. I'itirgcruld, new president of the Western Sknting ns- sociation. Here arc some of his rea sons he gives: The Western association has mem bers in every state from Pennsylvania to the Pacific coast. The association has, for the first time in a long while, money to spend on big tournaments. One skater will be paid .fSOO a week to perform. For the first time in history pro fessional whalers will travel on a cir cuit nw ballplayers do. The circuit is composed of Pitts burg, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, St. Paul, Seattle, Wash., and Portland, Or. There are big rink in these cit ies and joint skating and lioekoy events arc to bo held. Hockey has become a erase on the Pacific coat and count teams nre playing some of the fastest hockey in the country. The skater who is to he pnid $800 a week more than the star ballplay ers gel is Oscar Mathicscn of Christiana, Xorwny. Hurley David son, so long devojed to roller skat ing, will return to the ice game, and all thf big champs, amateur and pro fcftHionnl, are booked for big races in various cities. Fitzgerald, who is back of the big boom in tho ico apart, has been pro moting sknting events twenty-seven years. Hosidos being head of the Western association, he is n member of the hoard of control of the Inter national association. He can tell the name and record of every skater that ever appeared in competition nnd anything else nnyoue wants to know about the ice sport. He's a human dictionary. r. rr-i, a Jackson county is n cluster of ncncoful communities, maintaining re ligiously an attitude of neutrality in all this warlike fuss and its attend ant horrors. Therefore, it occasion ed more than a mild degree of sur prise when a communication wns re ceived from the National Arms com pany offering war tmccs for all the .30-30 cartridges wo could spare, and added that it could use nil of our seven-millimeter cartridges, .30-10 cartridges and .303 cartridges. Kogue Hiver valley is a magnificent agricultural and fruit district, fumed also for its dairies nnd livestock, its mines nnd mineral waters. The pro per uso of all of these things is con ducive to pence. Rut we have never undertaken to produce nny of these munitions of war, believing that they arc not indigenous to tlio soil of n law-abiding nnd pence-loving com munity. Not being in league with tho manu facturers of war and war weapons, wc will have to pass up this oppor tunity to shnro in their profits, which already hnvo run into the billions. Timo will prove that wo nre fortun-ntc.
