"PXCTE SEVEN" Items of Interest From the Rogue River Valley 'SEEDFOmi SIXTH TTtTBTTNT!. SrEDFO'RDT OTTCflONV TOTDTY,' WiTOTOTS Tl M BIG WINTER FAIR ASHLAND, Oct. 14. The Winter Fair in December wants and actually needs the big Chautauqua auditorium for the show, especially the livestock exhibit. Furthermore, it this building cannot be had, tho livestock feature will probably be dispensed with, conse. quently the fair would bo lacking at tractions to this extent. In view of some objections to using the building for this specific purpose, petitions are being circulated asking the trustees to grant this favor. Some expressions have been ' made against the project lrom a sanitary point of view, but these need not hold, as all due precau tions will be taken in this respect. Metropolitan centers hold these dis plays in public amusement places, and it is not long since that a prize bossy was the cynosure of admiring eyes at a "reception" in her honor in the crys tal room of one of Portland's leading hotels. The Chautauqua auditorium is the logical place, and its noted acous tic properties will need no megaphone or phonograph to amplify the bleating of the sheep, tho lowing of the kine, and the neighing of tho equine, all of which can chorus with unison in the midst of ample surroundings. Lee Huntley, brother of Mrs. Ed Thornton and Mrs. Carl Murphy writes his Ashland relatives very entertain ingly of experiences in Central Amer ica, he being employed as civil engi neer by an American corporation in dredging for gold and platinum in var ious sections of Colombia, not far dis tant from the Pannma Canal Zone, On Oct. 19 a national campaign will bb started, the objective being a drive to further the installation of mail de livery boxes more conveniently located at private residences. With some peo ple it would rightly be the alternative of the department to discontinue the delivery in instances where no conven ient receptacle is supplied. This hint will apply to some local parties. The Ashland Fruit & Produce asso ciation will seek a new president, J. H. Dill having resigned that office peremptorily)' ina statement assigning tho reason ..that, ho is not in accord with the spirit which seems to rule the corporation. This resignation compli cation will he handled by the directors in due season. The "recall" spontaneous had its effect, and the appointment of Rev. C. A.

This method was adopted owing to complications which might have en sued in connection with the bids of nearly half a dozen rival bond h6uses. They were disposed of to Devereaux & Co., and the Blythe-Wllter Co., of Portland, on the basis of realizing $93.72 on the dollar, the total discount being $S11.36, plus an additional ex pense account of approximately $100 for printing the securities.
