The Diamond Lake company is back
ed by the leading business men of
Medford and Jackson county, about
ninety in all having subscribed for
23,000 of the capital stock, leaving
$2000 of the stock still unsold. The
company is applying for a permit from
the state corporation commissioner ti
sell the balance of the stock at this
time, construction work on the Dia
mond Lake resort project having been
commenced and the flrBt truck load of
material for boats and camp having
gone out to Union creek last Monday.
i The company has obtained A. D.
Vandergriff to build the boats and as
head carpenter on the construction
i work at the lake.. He has operated a
I well known inn 17 miles out from
j Portland on the Columbia River high
Iway and having leased the inn came
I back to Medford expecting to spend
I the summer in the upper Rogue river
region camping, fishing and hunting.

are now nt Union creek, having 'taken
the contract of making the shakes for
(the Diamond Lake buildings. The
company will move their camp to 11a
maker meadows or to the lake by June
25th.
The company expects to have the
road open to Diamond lake and all
1 necessary facilities to accommodate
.the influx of campers and tourists, by
IJuly 10th. There will be boats for
rent, a gasoline station, a - general
store, meals will be served and tent
houses will be for rent as sleeping
quarters. Diamond lake and immedi
ate surroundings are famed as oneiof
the most beautiful and picturesque
spots In Oregon, and the new resort
being established there by , Medford
capital will doubtless draw a 1ilg pa
tronage from this city and county, as
well from all other parts of southern
Oregon. Already many Medford people'
are planning to spend their summer
vacations at Diamond lake.
