This 1r absolutely the best time to muko a thorough clean-up, because all Infection can be readily detected before all the leaves tako their na tural fall browning. At this time limbs that are Infect ed with blight show a distinct brown ing of the leaves, which will not .be so noticeable In a few days lime, espec ially if we have a little frost. As fust as the pears are off the trees, grow ers should follow up with blight cut ters and be very careful that all in fections are taken out. KIIhIU that has slowed up before picking has started to run again at this time, and trees can be ruined In a short time if not looked after. It Is imperative that this work be done at once and . inspectors will serve ten day notice on all growers who do not start to work at once. This work must be done this fall In order to give time for the Inspectors to fullow up the work, to see tha,t it is done thoroughly. . Sept. 22, 1925. C. C.

"The consumption today in Med- 5 ford Is about 41 gallons per capita I per day for commercial use and 7 4 f gallons for domestla use. leaving 315 ? gallons per capita per day for lawns, garden and other uses. Figuring the i average lot as 40x160 fnet, at least two-thirds of which is lawn and home garden, there 1r then 270 acres Irrigated in the city on which the use sj. is 315 gallons per capita per day. This makes a use of about one acre foot ) per acre per summer months, which Is not extraordinary ns the nverage for alfalfa and meadow use in the s country Is six-tenths acre foot per j summer month. "The, Increase of users in the city has been constant, much greater In proportion the lust three years. In 1914 there were 2100 users, In 1922 is there were 2200, In in 11125 It had in- creased to 2500, the greatest Increase : being this year. This shows the in - creasing population. ' I "It has been suggested to put on meters in this city. This would cost 1 $50,000 and would Increase the cost of water on present consumption more 4 than it will cost water users for the increased rates to pay for the new Si system proposed. It has cost 118.000 " the past 18 months to repair one-third 1? of the collars of the present system. '. nnd a conservative estimate is that ? it will C0Rt 2 5.000 per year to keep It ' in repair nnd replace collars the next ' three years. At the end of that time work of replacing the worn out V wooden pipe will have to begin and on a basis of 10 yeurH at an expense of $30,000 a year, or $300,000 in 10 years, in addition to the $76,000 spent ' for repairs in three years previous to i this, would make $375,000. When completed there would only be a re lV paired plant und only 30 per cent of M the supply the hew1 plant would fur . .-' nlsh. This would mean the continued 1 shortage and the present unsatlsfao :s tory quality of water. "The new system on a basis of 500 :i gallons per capita per day an Ill s' crease of 70 gallons per person over present supply would supply an abundance of water for a tfity of 20.- 000 people. The minimum supply of the pipe proposed would be 15 and 4-10 second feet, and the maximum .4 17 . second feet. f ply Is 6 second feot. The water right ' of the city to Big Butte springs. Is far ' in excess of the amount proposed and w is sufficient for all demands of a city .f much larger than 40,000. 1 "To pay for the new plant nnd the present debt of the present plant pro-' 'I vision has been made In the propo- 'i sltion to positively pay all bonds and interest before 1956. and before the I life of the proposed plant has served f Its purpose and leave an accumula-, lion for betterments. This can be done I on basis of present receipts and' an incrense of 50 consumers per yenr. "The payment can be made either i by Increasing the present rale 60 per cent with no tax of increase wnter -j rates one-fourth and a small tax levy, ' either of which would still leave the P rate at Medford lower than any other city In the slate, according to wnter ' used, excepting Ashland, but not vven excepting Portland. I "The bond issue submitted Includos I $100,000 to put In new mnins and in- f crease others which Is necessary to 5 carry the Increased wnter supply and relieve the low pressure In the city during the period Irrigation Is nllow- 4 ' cd." 1 jr.

All were delighted with the wonderful water nnd were of the op inion that to supply Medford with such pure, cold spring water would be well .worth the cost.
