If It were the policy of the Med ford public market to advertise, the foregoing might appear in the papers of this section in almost every issue of tho year. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday of each week during tins year the Medford housewives thiong to the public market buiiding on South Riv erside. To early comers is given the opportunity of buying the products of tho farm, fresh aud appetizing at ittractivo prices. Hut many are dis appointed for many of tho landhold ers fail to seo tho opportunity for money making within their grasp and as a result each year a large pro portion of the potatoes, onions aud vegetables consumed in Medford and vicinity are grown in California. Kspecially Is there a need for the production of early garden truck to be placed upon the market before the month of May. Again thero is a heavy demand for tho later products lo bo offered for sale after the mid dle of September. l-'orelgn CuMomers Medford housewives alone do not constitute the limit of the market for warden products which may be sold through the. public market. Three times during the past season Mr. Mc- Cloud, head of the McCIoud Milling Co., lias come to K. .1. Itunyard, mar ket master, and endeavored to ar range for the buying of supplies for the IUU0 men employed in the com pany's camps and mills. Tho filling of one such rontraet would mean tak ing the entire production of a whole colony of "little hinders'1 at fancy prices. It has been pusested many times that Medford, through her public market be made a selling center for garden produce but these suggestions have always been met with the same answedr. "It cannot be done now. We have not enough to supply even our! housewives.'' In peaches alone is Medford enter ing the markets of Oregon and Wash ington in direct to the consumer sell ing. In one month SO0O boxes of peaches wero sold. In addition to supplying the home market, this fruit was shipped to consumers all the way from Portland, Ore., to Los Angeles, Cal. riliniately, it is hoped through increased production to widen the market and take in a variety of pro duets. Demand for rotator. The demand for potatoes is espec ially heavy. The market master re counts numerous instances during the jpast month v hen wagons loaded with irhen up to the mar- NSMI ket buildings and the entire load was bought before a sack could be tin loaded and taken intw the building.

(ienth'iiien : Keplying to your let ter of the 2!lth tilt., 1 will say, that while I am perfectly familiar with what is termed the ''Hanson 1'lau," 1 deny (hat I am the nut hot' of the same or that it was launched with my ad vice or approval. However, as t have been a paid servant of the city in the capacity of city attorney for the past four years. I do not see how I can decline your rcquot or fail lo accept your chal lenge ; and while I have hitherto refrained from expres-iug my views upon the "Hanson l'lan," I am will ing lo do so. and therefore consent to be present on the date fixed by you tor that purpose. Dated at .Medford, Oregon, Janu ary ', 1117. II. li. MVAIiK. touring cars frequently draw up to the market building at tho first opeu ing of the market. Enough melons and peaches are purchased to fill the ear to capacity and the driver pulls out for Klamath falls or sonic point in eastern Oregon. Were production heavier Medford might easily supply the eastern Oregon trade with heavy profits to the farmers of this section. A heavy frost in tho spring as ber ries were coming into bearing and another In the Tall as the grapes were ripening cut down the amount of pro duce during the past season. In spite of these handicaps every one of the 23 booths was taken and a good va riety shown. The only iiiawijuck lay in the fact that there was not enough to go around. Well Patronized. The people of Medford have pat ronized the market during the past, its fifth year wonderfully well and to them the market master extends thanks, lie feels that in the future they will continue their patronage and it is his desire to impress upon tho landholders the necessity' for them lo also patronize the market, to help themselves by increasing their production aud bringing their pro ducts to the market for sale. Some farmers have been under a handicap in raising garden truck be cause of a lack of moisture but with the coming of general use of irriga tion tins problem will be solved and the dream of Medford as a marketing center will come true.

Somebody tells the story of the man who tried to save money on an ocean trip by eating crackers and fruit three times a day and dodging the ship's restaurant.

INCORPORATED FAMOUS DRAMA COMING HERE AS SCREEN PLAY WITH NOTED STAR "The I'nwTitten Law," coming Wednesday to the Paso, Is a seven part photo drama adapted from Edwin Milton Koylc's staRO success of the same title. In it the California Motio n Picture Corporation has achieved tho masterpiece of its producing activities. Tho story is wholesome and hiR, and develops thru breathless suspense to one of the most thrilling climaxes ever attained In motion picture art. An advance synopsis of it here Is Inadvisable, and would detract from one's later pleasure in seeing it. since much olthe Interest of the de velopment of the pot on tho screen hanRs on a thread of mystery and surprise that is spun out, with clever producing touches, to the very end of the story. If It were necessary to pick the outstandinR feature from the many elements of Kreatncss that thh production embodies. It would unhes itatingly be the emotional power of Beatrix .Michelena's acting. Miss Michaelena's Impersonation of Kate Wilson in this picture Is her greatest achievement since forsaking opera for the screen. Every critic who has reviewed the film has declared htr work a marvel both in power and finish. Are you ft'oing' to CHICAGO HIT VOt l!
