HEMS OF INTEREST FROM THE ROGUE RIVER VALLEY
tIN ASHLAND VOTE
BY .BIG
ASHLAND, March 14. Tlio bond Is
sue which was voted upon in a special
election last Wednesday resulted in
an overwhelming victory for the bonds,
the vote being 450 to 184. The Cham
ber of Commerce, Llthians and Ki
wanls club was unanimously back of
the Issue and many of tho public spir
ited citizens worked hard for the bond,
realizing that tho future of Ashland
depended on whether or not it carried.
Citizens of Ashland feel that the result
of the voto Is Indicative of the progres
sive spirit of Ashland, and that most
of the residents are anxious to have
anything that will do some good to the
community. This Is a $10,000 bond for
the purpose of improving the Lithia
camp and auto camp ground. The
money Is necessary In order to main
tain the prestige which has been given
to the Ashland camp ground. Some
very necessary improvements will be
made and the area of the camp ground
will be extended. The camping equip
ment such as stationary tubs, shower
baths, laundry and rest- room will be
added. With the improvements that
have been planned it is almost cer
tain that ABhland will have a very up-to-date
camp ground and one that will
be better equipped than most of the
camp grounds of today. The park
board will start to work immediately
to secure contracts for the work to be
done and the Nvork will start as soon
In the year as possible.

Spring diet
With Springtime comes a marked desire
for "green stuff" on the daily menu. This
is Nature's provision for Man's need of
vitamines. Perhaps that is why we like
ham and bacon all the year round because
they also contain vitamines in easily
digested form. '.
Frye's "Delicious" Brand Hams and Bacon
are made from selected young grain-fed
porkers. The Frye way of curing gives

Delicious products with Spring green stuffs.
