Casey, real es tate operator of Roseburg. who is reg istered at the Hotel Oregon, 'is a road to Diamond lake' and Crater ' lake. The county Is doing some work on a road In that direction and tho forest service is also assisting, but there is still a long gap to be con structed. Diamond lake Is a recrea tion park, a regular playground, and I venture to say that right now there are mWo than 1000 people camped around there. It is an Ideal spot, with plenty of fishing, good camping and a delightful beach, so that visitors can enjoy bathing. Crater lake, of course is wonderful, but people do not og there to camp as they do at Dia mond lake. If wo can get a road through so It-will beeasy of access to motor" tourists, Roseburg will be greatly benefitted and It will also be I a short and direct route." Oregon Ian. ; Alberta and Crawford peaches, tho i first of the season, were on sale at tho public .market this morning, the entire stock of which was sold out be fore 8 o clockn According to Markot- masterwjAinyiHl-tolMwaoheB-wiU be in season the 1st of September, while all varieties of the fruit will continue to bo sold until the 1st of October. He also states that Medford housewives should buy their tomatoes now be fore the rains, which split tho fruit and to some extent spoil their taste. Huckleberries will be on sale again next Saturday. : mens i w i Men's Men's m ivipiis hi AI mi TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY CO.NVAIj:SOi:.N'T MO.MK, AhIiImhI.
