Tlje widely i heralded Ford , and
Fordson . power , exposition passed
through. Medford yesterday after
noou. en. route to Ashland for the
first ot a series . of power farming
and industrial demonstrations ein-
' bracing the entire state and cover
ing an approximate mileage of 4,000,
within a period o" about throe
months.
I Headed by a big Lincoln chassis,
! representing the latest addition to
I the Ford and associated products.
I the caravan proceeded in parade
rormatlon, attracting considerable at
tention in the business section of the
city. The show returns to Medford
for a seriep of demonstrations Mon
day and Tuesday. Some of these
demonstrations will occur on the
new Jackson county fair grounds,
others upon nearby farms, and still
others 'within the city, where com
mercial, contracting and Industrial
demonstrations will be featured.
Although euch piece of equipment
seems to attract1 its. own following,
widespread interest tias been arous
ed by the almost phenomenal time
made by the caravan as a whole.
The show reached Medford at an
hour actually In advance of its
scheduled arrival. iNumerous and
dificult detours were encountered.
The roads were rough, the grades
steep, i Practically every unit was
of more than average weight. Some
of the apparatus, with trailers at
tached, required exceedingly good
driving on sharply curved detours,
yet the caravan moved steadily along
the line without a single serious mis
hap. .
"It has been a wonderful exper
ience," said J. D. Jordan, assistant
branch manager of the Ford Motor
company, Portland, "but we have
proved conclusively the ready adapt
ability of both truck and tractor to
practically every condition likely to
arise in any part of the country.
But what we have accomplished In
this overland trip is merely an Indi
cation of the much greater possibili
ties of automotive operations on the
farm and In virtually every commer
cial Industrial field. .
"The .splendid reception received
at all points has well repaid us for
the Journey thus far," continued Mr.
Jordan, "and every man In our crew
is alive with enthusiasm and eager
to meet the slightest wish of every
man, woman or child who Is or may
become Interested in any equipment
or apparatus accompanying the car
avan." Local arrangements are being per
fected by Mr. George Gates, of the
C. E. Gates Atto company, authorized
Ford and Fordson distributors In
Medford territory.
"The equipment Is so complete,"
said Mr. Gates, "that we shall be
able to demonstrate practically every
feature of truck and tractor opera
tion whether it be on the farm, a
contracting or engineering job or
commercial hauling or delivery of
any kind. .
"In fact," added Mr. Gates, "so
confident are we of our ability to
successfully demonstrate any equip
ment in the caravan that we urge
