MEDFORD MATL TRIBUNE MEDFORD,' OREfiON, MONDAY, MAY 28, ,1917 PXGE THREE 1 AT INTAKE El The city council made a trip of In spection Sunday to the water works intake and the city ranch of 380 acres nearby. The councilman were able to drive their cars all the way to the Intake. They jay they found things in good shape, everything considered at both the Intake and the ranch, and are more than ever convinced that In the ranch the city has a valua ble property. It was the first time that Mayor Gates had ever seen the ranch and In take. "That ranch was certainly an eye-opener to me," Bald the mayor 'n Monday. "In Its possession the city has a valuable piece of property which ought to be made to bring in quite an Income. Why, on that ranch enough hay alone can be raised in a year to feed 600 cattle. This trip, too, convinced me of the purity of the city's water supply. We found no conditions which could lead us to any other conclusion. "Our trip of Inspection," said Dr. J M. Kecne, chairman of the council water committee, "showed that the city's water supply Is pure and is not at all endangered by surrounding con ditlons. "While we found conditions at the ranch satisfactory In the main, yet there Is no question but that the prop erty has been let run down and has been neglected. However, with the use of a little common sense and busi ness foresight In leasing the property to responsible persons It can be made to bring In an income on the city's In vestment and cattle can be run on It without endangering the purity of the wMer sunnly. About 120 acres ran Tj&'put into meadow with very little work." As a result of the trip the council will probably make a change in the ranch leasing arrangements at Its next meeting. Also the question of mak ing a number of minor Improvements at small expense at the intake will be taken up.

Clcinenceau says: "In invuded Franco at the present hour there is a name which represents by I know' not whut force of intu ition, the beauty of America's inter vention it is that of Roosevelt. You are too much of a philosopher not to know that great popular lenders have influenced men out of all pro portion to their own real value, by the intangible atmosphere of legend which has formed around them. "Whatever may bo tho reasons and without attempting to analyze the phenomenon, I yield to the imperi ous need to tell you that tho name of Roosevelt has in our country nt this time a legandary power. It would lie an enormous1 error in my view to neglect a force; which .everything urges us to make use of ns soon as possible. .. "Wo have learned that the first American unit has arrived nt the jfront and with what zest generals nnd privates saluted the noble starred banner. However, yon should know, Mr. President, that more than one stout chevronnod poilu said to his comrade in an astonished voice : "But where is Roosevelt? -I don't see him." " Mr. and Mrs. John Clark have re turned from San Francisco. , ......... . 1 ii r -.fk.... L Ji.MMinMii7' i TT ' - i ,rJ HOW do you know a good cup ofcfffiee?
