The announcement by the Oilden Rule Mercantile company today of their anniversary celebration this month calls to tho attention of Med ford and southern Oregon people the B remarkable growth of that firm In this section. Thjs growth has been noth ing short of phenomenal and reflects credit -for the sound business policies and enterprise of C. W. Whillock and C. A. WhlUock, the proprietors of the Golden Rule stores. . Nine years ago the first store was established in Med ford. . Now the Golden Rule Mercan tile company owns stores both Id this city and Ashland, and on April 1st, will open a store In Dunsmulr, California, with A. L. Drown in charge. , - In 1915. when the Golden Rule store first opened. )n Medford, they boasted 8000 square feet of floor space. In 1917 this space was Increased to 5400 square feet.

McNary Would Rather Coax Than Use Club Senator McNary, of Oregon, whose select committee of the senate has been hiking around the country for the last nine months collecting con tradictory and Irreconcilable advice reforestation bill. McNary merely plans an extension of federal co-operation with the state in devising re gional forest policies that will have to he sponsored by state laws. The fifty fifty Federal appropriation Is to be increased from J400.000 to about 12,- 500,000. This will be divided among the states that adopt progressive poli cies In regard to protection of forests against fires. There are also provis ions for the enlargement of the scope of federal purchases of land for na tional forests, authorizing the presi dent to annex public domain to the forests, and providing for the formu lation of stnte laws' of forest tnxutlon that will encourage owners to re forest. McNary wants to coax the lumbermen Into reforestation and riot club them into It. His bill proposes to tax them $5 a thousand feet on their lumber output and then refund 4.86 of It if they are nice and docile and manage their properties the way the department of agriculture tells them to.
