In his letter to the Medford Cham ber of Commerce, Captain Smith In commenting on tho value of a perma nent landing field says: "1 -have flown over Medford seve ral times this year, and noticed the work that was bemg done. If it is completed you no doubt have an ex cellent field, ono that your city will be proud oN.nnd one which will also assure you of frequent visits both by army and commercial planes." Aviators who have used tho fair ground field since its completion say it is one of the ost cn the coast and the fair directors are virtually as sured of visiting planes during the county fair.

One report from Ashland is to tho effect that a Gran ite City speed demon is grooming an entry for the' Ford classic that is geared up like a fcUutz lieu rout and holds the road like a three-ton truck. Another embryo Halph Delalma is working on the chassis and engine of an old bus that has more cyHn ders than a Liberty rtiotor nnd eats gas like it was formerly owned by Johu 1). Uockefeller. It is claimed for mis machine however, that the driver when he getB on the fair ground track will shake more speed out of It than anything on four wheels has ever de veloped in Jackson county. The speed which may be attained by putting a "lil7.ziu"in first class shape mechanically and gearing up the transmission is surprising. The fair ground track is so constructed that a high speed may be attained if tho machine is capable of hitting the breeze. Ashland speed enthusiasts seem to be in the majority hi preparation for tho coming events, but Medford auto mobile experts claim that when the starter's flag drops at tho fall- grounds there will bo a Medford entry or two that will show tho way to anything else which may under take to compete.
