WJEUFOKI) 2 AUTO SMASHES SUNDAY, ONE AT There were twe x'.'ln necidenls Sunday, one in Medford in which for tunately no one was injured, and the oilier at the foot of tho Ulackwcll hill, in which several Grants Pass people were injured, one of whom, Mrs. William O. Ktell, 7.'( years old, was unite seriously hurt and is a p'l tient in the Don' hospital. The scene of this accident between Gold Dill and Central I'oint wns the same as that of over a week ago in which Mr. and Mrs. F.d G. Drown and others of Medford were so badly in jured, and at which dangerous point so ninny others havo had narrow escapes from accident. On nil sides these is heurd a general demand that the county court or the state higbwnv commission, whichever is responsible, take steps at once to make the high way safe at this point. At llin foot of tho hill, just in front of the sharp detour turn, there is n largo hole, into which mniiv cars have narrowly escaped skidding. Mr. nnd Mrs. Steel nnd son, George, nnd Mrs. M. S. Klliolt, nil of Grants I'ass, were en route at 10 a. in., Sun day to Moil ford to visit Mr. Steel's niece, Mrs. 0. V. Meyers, and family when in making the detour turn the Ford unto skidded into the hole and turned turtle. James Cuinniings of Central Point was not 'ur behind tho Steel piutv when the accident opourrcd and he with the assistance of others, lifted tho car from the injured occupants. Mrs. Steel was rushed to the Dow Hospital where she is now receiving every attention. Tho other memhors of the pnrlv suffered slight injuries. Mrs. Steel s right forearm was fractured in four places, several of her ribs were fractured and sho also sultered severe internal injuries. I he auto accident in Medford oe curred Sunday afternoon at the corner of South Onkdalo and West 11th streets. Miiln Lamb was pro ceeding on Onkdalo in his Chevrolet car when Mrs. William Smith rounded the corner into Onkdalo from West 1 1 til in a Maxwell car and ran into tho Lamb auto.

TJiis bulletin is entitled "The Soils of Jackson County." It is the most exhaustive publication ever issued on the soils of nnv county in this state. This deals with the origin, formation, classification, fertility, value, needs, and proper bundling of all tho soils of this county. A very complete man showing location of nil roads, rail roads, section lines, and towns. With the aid of this man nnv farmer can readily determine at n glance the tvpe of soil or soils on his place. Numer ous tables are included, giving the most complete inventory ever pub lished of the soils of nnv count v in America. Hv referring to tl"- tables giving the exhaustive physical nnd chemical analyses made of all these soils any rancher can determine just what his soil contains. The physical analyses give the percentages of Blind. silt, clay, nnd gravel in each soil tvpe. The chemical analyses give an in ventory of the plant food in each type, including the amount of potash, nitrogen, calcium, mugncsiiim, sul- lur, phosphorus, limestone and hu mus. With this information the farmer will know which plant foods arc abundant and which nro lacking.
