MEDFOKD MAIL TRIBUXIO, MKDFORT), OT?TC(JON, MONDAY, JUNE 12, 1910 PAGE THREE - V I A' rs t t.s CANNERY SECURES TOMATO PLANTS F REPLANTHG MEDFORD WINS F ROM GRANTS PASS A frot on Saturday morning, June 10, nipped n lure portion of the tomato nereuuo contracted for by the Hnjriie Hiver Valley Cuiiiiitii: coia jKiny. It is not yet too late to re plant, and the cannery liny neoured about 10,000 fino plants from b'po ,kaue, which should be hero Wednes day. Any orchurdist or fanner who htm nvniluhlc a few ae'ruH of rich soil with plnnty of water is urged to comiiiunieate iuunedately through the Commercial club with Mr. Lamed or Mr. Hoke of the cannery. There arc no plants obtainnblo hem or in Port land on account of the heavy frost damage. The cannery offers $10 a ton tit the factory for all good, Miiooth, red, firm tomatoes of fair size, and proper variety. In this connection the company is desiiou.x of drivingttho fact home to the growers that $10 is nlmobt a rec ord price for tomatoes. California pays .$8, and $8 h tho price preva lent m ninny largo sections' of the east. At this price tho grower should net $100 the acre, providing ho is within easy hauling distnnco of town. Tho cannery is paying 4'jo jior pound for loganberries,' 'J.c for Kentucky Wouder benns, $0 per ton for pumpkins, and in fact is paying n much higher price for all vegetables luid fruits than is offered anywhere, jet the growers seem to feel they nre being "Jewed" down. On account of diheriininnting freight rates which force up the price on all merchandise and the lack of payrolls which force down the pocket books of tho locnl consumers, it is amplest iounhly hard scratching to jnnke both ends meet in this valley nt present. As soon ns wo secure a rail road to tho coast, a lumbor mill or two and u box fnetory conditions will be as they nro in Klamath Kails, for instance. , Last week Mr. I.unied and Mr. Iloko vifittrt Klamath county and sold in Klnninth Kails alone more carloads of goods than this whole valley will consume, according to tho present indications. Yet Medford is twice the size of Klamath Falls. What's tho answer? They havo the payroll.. We have not. Tho local merchants and consumers appreciate the unexcelled (nullify of the pack of the local cannory, but thoro can't bo much increase in consumption until thore i a marked increase in ready cash. The cannery hIm wiuhos to an nounce that they offered to take 1000 tons of ran of orchard Hait letls at .fili a ton, but tho proposition ditl not meet with favor. Owing to the high price of biigar there is noth ing for the dinner in packing pears in any quantity if thoy cannot be ob tained at thih price. BY SCORE OF 9-7 In a fast game that ended in a batting rally for Grants Pan that kept the funs in a nervous tension, Medford defeated Grants Pass yes terday by the score of H-7 at tho ball pitrk. Caster for Medford pitched an ex cellent game up until the ninth, and then weakened, allowing for runs to be scored. He walked one of them in. Kery one w.nlked by him and he gave seven wore materially as sisting in boosting the scoro of Grants Pass. The Medford infield was the whole team, playing gilt-edged ball and slopping every rally by the visitors. Shorty Miles came through with a homo run and Caster gathered a thrco-biiggcr and Wilson a two-bagger. Medley, the Oakland recruit, did not show up for the game, and reiKH-ts Rtato that ho will not come here. Wccklcr and Pcmoll pulled n circus catch that brought tho crowd to their feet. Miles drove a fly to short center, Wcckler raced after it and caught it, only to have it glance off his glove. Pcmoll, racing in, caught it beforo it reached tho ground. Grants Pass should have been shut out by the local team. Caster walked seven men, Cornell none. Struck out by Caster ,ri, by Cornell 10. Nam ed runs, Medford 1, by Miles. Hit by pitcher Castor 1.

Ulllott and I. It. Yeppuon, Mormon elders, who linvo been In. till valley far n short time, oxuroes tlium solves favorably on tho sugar boot nctlvltloH. "This vnlloy," said Mr. Klllott. "Is the only logical site for n sugar boot factory south of tho Suthorlln al ley. It lias ncronso enough to sup port one, and soil to giow'tho boots. Ten thousand acres, Including Sams valloy could bo secured and would bo amplo enough to run a largo factory. "When tho sugar boot company was formed Hlshop Nlbloy allowed his namo to bo used to finance the com pany; ns tho others had no standing in tho eastern markets, on condition that he bo not required to glvo any nctual time. FACINAIG PEGGY Not only is Millie Ihiike scoring u triuinnh in her f!rt motion pictura play. "Peggy," but the Page theater is rolling up an attendance which will have established u new record for lo cal film theaters by the time the $2(10,000 production is taken off the screen Into tonight. Faseinntiiig "Peggy" and winsome ilillie llurkc in the titular role make a combination that is simplv'irrosist ible. This is provod by tho crowds and the wide-armed welcome accord ed the comedienne bv both her own porsonnl following and confirmed movie fnnns who never. beforo saw her act. The production was personally di rected by Thomas II. luce. It is one of the best released bv tho Triangle Film corporation, and Manager Hunt of tho Page theater has received "Tho factory at Grants Pass is suro jniunv compliments for subscribing to to be moved, probably north to Sutli-:,, i-.i,,, h,.rvieo that brinirs to Medford crlln or tho Wlllamctto valley. Thcro is insufficient sugar beet laud around Grants Pass for sovonty miles oxcopt this valley. Tho Suthcrlln proposi tion can support a small factory. "Too much hna, boon said regarding profits on Riigar beotji and not enough on growing. It means hard work but n fair profit. i "Some of tho land nccoptod Is not good for sugar beets and somo signed whoso ownors do not Intend to grow beets. "A sugar beet factory wins only thrco months and Is Idlo nine. It brings monoy not only to tho om ploycos but TO the farmers. "A factory In Medford Is nlmost a certainty by 101". It Is logical. It Is necessary." Hicli splendid offerings. "We're pretty proud of Peggy," snid Mr. Hunt, "and certainly feel re paid by the wonderful response of the public to our efforts to present the very bes films produced in tho mo tion picture world. 'Peggy' is just one of tho typos of high-class plays that has built up u largo and steady patronngo for this bcoiitiful theater." In selecting his actors and act resses, luce displayed rare fidelity to type.. For example, William II. Thompson who plays the crabbed old Soot, Andrew Cnmeron, Peggy's uncle, is absolutely real even on tho screen. William Desmond, ns tho "Meenister," who finally captures tho heart of captivating "Peggy," like wise is a strong actor, nnd ns leading P3 M I OBITUARY.

It's costly. Tho makers of the OWL do it. They do even more. They keep a million dollars' worth of slowly curing tobacco constantly on bund. Every leaf of OWL tobacco is cured nat urally by time. Nothing is hurried noth ing is slighted. Every step is takon ns carefully ns if you wcro tho manufacturer as well as the smoker. Wo know this kind of cigar-making is appreciated by discriminating smokers. Tho sales seem to prove it. mmmm. 5&im? M) s. T M. A. GUNST & CO.
