WHY THEY
MANY piuspeulivc investors and lioinoseokers have vis
itfd the valley during the past year. .Most of them
are practical business men, sueressftil l'artnew or prosper
ous stockmen seeking new loctition with more favorable
climatic conditions. K' .varespeculatoi-s. This is the very
class the valley needs.
Little property has changed hands, few of the homc
fet'keis liave become residents. This is due to se.veral rou
fiorw. First, because this is only one of several localities in
view, all of which are being viewed, studied and cempared:
second, because of misrepresentation and inflation and
knocking, not confined to any one region, but to all; third,
lack of irrigation locally.
These practical honicseekcrs know their business. They
cannot be deceived. They si'e up a country's output from
the railroad figures. They know from the yield tho value
of tho land. Thoy analyse the soil to determine its pro
duct itveness. Their observations extend over several
years. They accumulate literature of all kinds, from the
department of agriculture to the newspaper. "Whore there
has not been a single request from Aledford for a Now
Year's edition' of tho Alail Tribune this year, there have
been hundreds of inquiries from other sections all from
prospective homeseekers,
The country is an open book to the intelligent investi
gator. Its record speaks for itself. Those who oppose,
irrigation are opposing their own best interests, retarding
the development of the country and depreciating their own
property, for without it many will come and few remain.
LETTER-WRITING WEEK
PORTLAND will set tho rest of the state a good example
by sending out next week o0,000 letters written by
the general public descriptive of Oregon and its scenic
attractions. This is the opening gun in a campaign to start
tourist travel to Oregon and the northwest during the com
ing year.
In addition, an attractive illustrated folder has been
ksued on the Columbia highway, in which Crater Lake is
featured as extensively as the highway.
Forms of letters have been provided for those too lazy
to write, in nearly all of which occur scnlences similar tt
the follewing:
Tho couatlnkoa Imd roiorln, the grandeur of Crater Lake, the medic
Innl prliiKN at Ashland, the huntliiR and finhliiK of the Horiio nnd McKen.
zlo rlverH all offor unlimited pluamiroH to the lover or tho out-ot-doora
vacation and nouker of health.
Crater Lake, In my oetliiintlon, Ih one of the wonders or the present
aRO, and It alone Is worth elrcllnft the Rlobo to see, without countlnR on
urn unior iiiiiiiiiiiTiiiiiu niirucuve loiuuroH. it ih recoRnued amoiiB scien

mense reservoir of clear, Ice-cold water, poised on the crust of a Rroat
mountain n thoiiRb held IiIrIi In the air by Almighty bauds for an object
losson of the powers of Omnipotence.
At Medrord, behold tbe fnni(uus pears and melons, nl Ashland, tho
poaches and mineral springs then go buck home, pick up and como to
stay, whore we grow, and do, and see big thlngH.
This is the initial effort of Portland to boom the scenic,
attractions of the stale and the first time a concerted effort
has been made to attract tourists to southern Oregon and
Crater Lake, and it will be but the first of a series of
efforts that, will help materially in uniting tho state to
work for a common purpose.
Next week has been proclaimed as letter-writing week
by the governor. Every citizen is asked to write fit least
ten letters of invitation asking travelers to consider this
state when making up itineraries.
Medford should heartily co-operate in the efforl. Tho
hciiooi cniiureu are planning
thousand more should bo written by the eitiz
everyone do his share. The Commercial club wi
scenic poster si amps.
Monday the Mail Tribune will print form letters for the
use of those who have not the lime to dictate or write,
which can be given to a stenographer with a list of names
nnd addresses to be sent.
