Mr. ttorst formerly lived In Med foi d a nil operated a stage line be tween Medford and Jacksonville with a Mr. King. y. BE E Vern C. Corst, of the Pacific Air Transit Co., panned through Medford last evening en route to San Fran cIhco, met a committee of the Cham ber of Commerce and explained their proposition as to the government air mall from Seattle to Los Angeles, as reported in the Associated Press dihpntchPR in this paper last evening. This company has the refusal of this route and will no doubt accept the same In the hear future. They have organized a company for $150,000, of 1&00 shares at $100 a share and will use the Curtis biplanes equipped -with the latest model Wright "Whirlwind motors of 200 horsepower with high speed of 120 miles an hour and a cruising speed of SO miles an hour, required by the government. ' ' Medford will he mnde one of tho principal stations of the company, be ing a relay for both the southbound route from Seattle and the north bound from San Francisco. This means mechanics and relny planes siatiuned here at all times. The planes will carry (iOO pounds of mall and if there Is not enough air mail to make up this amount daily the government will no doubt arrange to give them the balance of their capacity In regular first-class mail, thereby insuring a full loud each trip. The rate for air mall from Seattle to Los Angeles Is $0 per pound or StiMO per ion pounds, of which the Pacific Air Transit company will re ceive 75 per cent or $450 on the 100 pounds. On first class mail th com pany would receive the same per cent which would average about ?G0 per 100 pounds. As has been slated, this coast line would have stations at Seattle, Port land, Medford, Sacramento, San Fran cisco, Fresno, Bakersfleld and Los Angeles. The contrncis require six day service; one plane each way daily.

There is a deep, mellow richness awaiting your palate satisfying flavors put there by nature and brough t to your cup by nature's slow method of aging.
