M
WIFE OF PASTOR
A
TABLE ROCK D1ST.
TABLE ROCK, Nov. 20. Orchard
plowing was begun this week ut the
Modoc orchard.
Wm. May field nnd son, Howard,
valley cattlemen, wero in thin (lis-1
trict Tuenduy en gaffing hay and feed-I
ing fcroundti for their cattle during!
the winter months. j
John Conley of Myrtle Creek was
here Wednesday looking for hay. lie
and his brother, It. M. Conley of
Butto Falls, recently bought the
two hundred care farm known an
the Conley estate in the Sams Val
ley district.
O. C. Nicewood finished hauling
baled hay to Medford this wetk.
The S. C. Collins family are mov
ing to Central point this week ami
Mr. Frazer and family are moving
onto the Collins farm, which they
have leased for the next year. Mr.
Frazer Is a recent arrival from lown
where he fallowed the dental pro
fession. K. B. Day, tho Sams Valley or
chardlst, stockman and general
farmer, was a business visitor here
Tuesday and Wednesday. Mr. Day
reports that during a feeding ex
periment he recently made on his
ranch, forty dollars worth of corn
produced nearly one hundred dol
lars worth, of pork, figured on the
basis of a dollar a bushel corn umt
1 2-cent pork. Conditions, however,
were- ideal, the hogs being young
and very thrifty, and besides hav
ing all the corn they could eat, had
plenty of green alfalfa pasture.
John Dodge and family visited rel
atives in this' district Sunday. At
the road tax meeting held Monday
In the Agate school house, the pro
posed tar was voted down by a two
to one vote. During the time allowed
for discussion the two county com
missioners and the road engineer
spoke for some time in favor of
the tax, outlining the needs of the
district and showing why a tax was
absolutely necessary if we were to
have any more road work done In
the district. While there was not
a voice raised In protest, the decisive
vote showed that the people con
sider that with the gas tax, auto
license, general fund road tax, and
the state market , road tax, they
are paying quite enough for roads
as It is.
Mrs. M. D. Lydlard Is preparing to
close up her home h ere a ml go to

EDEN I'UECINCT. Nov. 19. Last
Thursday afternoon at tho pleasant
homo of Mrs. J. M. Ruder on the
highway south of Phoenix, was the oc
casion of a most delightful shower,
given for Mrs. Rev. Nelson. About
65 ladles of the community were
present, each bringing a beautiful
gift for the little stranger who Is soon
to bless ihe home of our pastor and
wife. This was not an Invitation af
fair, It was for all the women of the
community, nnd utmost every one of
thorn responded. The array of use
ful gifts were many and fine. After
M rs. Nelson had opened the many
packets and read the many Jests and
prett yverses, she thanked the donors
in her quiet way and was very Joyful
and happy. Delicious refreshments
wore then served by the hostess and
her bevy of young ladies who helped
with the serving.
Another crowded and pleased
house is the verdict as to play, "Pi
rates of Penzance," played at Phoe
inx ugaln last Friday night. The play
will be taken to several of the schools
in the county before the winter is
over. Work on the senior play, will
be commenced next week, and bids
fair to be as good or better than the
last one.
An up-to-the-minute farmer Is one
who never turns a furrow until the
last minute, in tho spring. This ac-
eounts for the small acreage of fall
sown grain.
A fine dairy heard has been shipped

last Monday.
' Mrs. Poley of Ashland was visit
Ing at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Cline Hartley last Thursday and Fri
day, and was at the shower given for
Mrs. Nelson.
Hubert High of Ashland will soon
commence on the big poultry house
which H. B. Nye of Talent will build.
Mi1. Nye is Intending to have a much
larger house than he formerly had.
and In all likelyhood will do a lot of
commercial hutching next spring.
Mrs. Jack Allen of North Talent
made a trip over to visit her mother
at Ruch, last Friday evening.
E. O. Miller of North Medford was
a business visitor at the Carey home

west of Phoenix, enjoyed a visit from
Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Fllnglnger and
family and Mr. and Mrs. R, W.
Orubbs and family of their old home
town, Hughton, Kansas. The visitors
left their homes late In the summer

weeks at Spokane and Seattle. They
left this valley for Los Angoles, where
they will spend the winter, and will
return to their home In Kansas next
spring.
Mrs. Denser's mother and brother

are moving to their new home in town
from the Coleman creek ranch.
Mrs. Baloy, mother of Mrs. O. T.
Morgan, was quite 111 dust Friday, and
Dr. Malmgren was called but found
nothing of an alarming nature, only
seemingly a weak and tired condition,
perhaps duo to her advanced years.
There la considerable snow at
Union Creek now. However, the
ground Is still bare at Prospect. Our
old-timers predict a hard winter,
' At the road meeting held at Mc-
Leod, a two-mill tax was voted- for
the graveling of the road between
the Red Blanket ranches and Pros
pect.
A visit by our county school atl
perintendent, Mrs. SUBanne Holmes
Carter, was enjoyed by the teachers
and pupils of both the high school
and the grades.
The Prospect Sunday school !
still growing. There were 42 pres

tendent Cook. Mrs. Babs assisted
