That the people of Medford and
Juckeon county are realizing more ful
ly the value of a first-class public li
brary such as it has in the Medford
public library is shown by the largo
increase in the local, county and rural
books in circulation. During the first
ten months of 1320 the local circula
tion was 42.464. During the corres
ponding months this year the local
circulation has been 62,013. These
figures show a 24 per cent incroaao.
This Increase came entirely during Uio
summer and early fall and was almost
nil In the circulation of children's
books. New books acquired by the li
brary are as many for the first ton
months of this year as for the entire
year last year and roughly number 1,
800. Fines for the first ten months of
last year total $368.91, while Tor the
some period of time this year they
amount to $392.92.
All Incorporated town In the county
except Ashland and Phoenix support a
brunch of the central library situated
In this city. These branches are sup
ervised by local people and are nlolwed
$30 worth of magazine subscriptions
throughout the year in addition to tho
200, to 600 volumes with which thoy
ore equipped. The circulation of those
branches during 1920 amounted to C
170, while ho fur this year 16.088 hooks
have been taken out from the county
branched.
From 60 to 100 volumes are allowed
prlvuto famlles who do not live near
a branch, who are rosonslblo people
and who agree to allow neighbors In
tho rural districts to share tho nso of
the books. Those stations are per
mitted to keep the books over a period
of, three months at the ond of which
time thoy return thorn to the central
library In ModTord and receive a now
quantity, of reading material for an
other-period of three months. Tliej

. !: Theso largo Incronsos 1n all tho
depurtmonts are largely due to the ef
ficient and strenuous offorts put forth
by Miss Van Sant. hnud Hhrarinn nn,i
also by her assistants on tho staff of
tne Medford public library.

missioner and Jay Stevens, manager

Pacific Coast met with local insurance
agents. City Water Superintendent
Davis, Fire Chief Law ton. and one
representative of the city council
Thursday, and, announced that Med
ford was one of the three towns in the
state scheduled for an increase in in
surance rates, owing to the lack of
adequate fire protection. Tho increase
will be in Ihe neighborhood of 20 per
cent if invoked.
l.aek of sufficient pressure, danger
of the main over Bear Creek bursting,
and no reserve reservoir for use in
emergency were given as the chief
reasons for the proposed increase.
The formation of a Fire Insurance
Exchange was also urged by the visi
tors who are on a tour of inspection.
