Uirtte a numlier of Ashland resi- dents will attend various features of the l,iK Klamath Kalis railroad of lehralioit this week end. Koine went over Friday nnd others oil Saturday to see the big parade. The advantaBM to Le derived by the establishment of the proposed new l.raneh of 'the l'ncific hifc-h-wity through Medford. are set forth In detail by the drenter .Medford Highway committee as follows: "For the past two or three years there hns been considerable talk of a new highway north of Med ford for the purpose of reliev ing the heavy traffic on the 1'a cllie highway over that section In which thero fire bo many sharp and right angle turna lor a dis tance of 8 or 10 mile. The im ..portnnce of this matter is well known to every citizen of Jackson county. "The movement recently start ed looking to the early solution of this problem is now backed by some 400 Medford and Jackson county citizens, who have pledged themselves to work for the suc cess of the project and to ask tho Sato Ulifhway cbmmlfcslon to build this new highway with state Mghway funds, derived from auto license fees, thus costing the tax payers of the county nothing. "A committee has been appoint ed and for several days have been viev.inK the valley to tho north, trying to determine the best lo cation for the proposed new high way. This report has been mniK and is enthusiastically endorsed by the 4 00 members of tho (Ireater Medford Highway associa tion, who are sponsoring tho pro ject. "The proposed route would take off from the Pacific highway on the east slope of Hlackwell Hill nt the first sharp curve and head toward Medford in an almost straight line, to an intersection with Jacksonville highway about one mile west of Medford city limits, and would enter the city via West Main and Oth Btreets. connecting with the Pacific high way nt 6th and Klversldo and Main nnd Itivcrsidc. "It was pointed out by tho committee in their report that this proposed route would servo two great purposes: First, it would traverse one of tile most fertile farming sections of the valley, and would open up to set tlement und subdivision n large urea of land adjacent to Central Point nnd Medford, which is now owned in large farms and would mean homes for two or three hun dred families where only a few now live. The advantago to every citizen of Jackson county by this development Is obvious. ".Second, this would bring the tourists who travel this route through the city of Medford. whereas 00 per cent of them now pass through without seeing Med ford, and Its numerous and at tractive environs. The loss to Medford at present nnd for many years past from this standpoint, has been nmuzingly large, livery man who tours tho country is a potential prospect as a new set tler. He may not think so when he leaves home, hut if wo can show him a better town than his own. we then plant the seed which in later months or years may bring him back to become one of us. If we continue to fail in the future to ' show him our town as we have in the past, we continue to lose this free adver tising, which is more than most of us realize. "Only a few days ago two gen tlemen who were touring thru the country and passed through Medford. had slopped in Ornnts Pass, happened to approach a Medford citizen, who was parked ill his car on the streets of Grants Pass, and asked him if "- lived in that town. t'pon being informed that lie lived in Med ford and not in Grants Pass, they remarked, 'We Just came through Medford it is a small, town. Yes.' said the Medfordlte, 'it is a small town, but it Is much larger than Grunts Pnss." They were so much surprised to learn this that they drove back to Medford to see the town, and today they are new residents of Medford. and have purchased n business. "Is It not time we are awaken ing to the fact that we must show our' town to the thousands of tourists who pass our way dally during the summer season? r takes population to make values, nnd it takes highways to Set the population. This project is sponsored not for the selfish interests of any man or group of men. but for tho development -"t the entire valley. I-ot us pull to gether. The membership of the Greater Medford Highway asso ciation has now passed the 300 mark. Including almost every busi ness man In Medford. !t every body lend their support by join ing the association. If you have not already Joined, enll on one of the committee and do so at once. "No dues, no assessments. "EMIL MOHIS, "President. "FRED L. HKAT1I.

This is a highly spe- ! cialized line of work and requires j skilled workers that are adapted I to its peculiar requirements, ,.ffi- I eiently informed as to its cause and effect. It is the intents and purpose of the Castleman School of Trnit l'acking to train local people to he efficient enough to be as good if not superior to the out side help and eventually build up nn organi zation of local packers huge enough to handle the entire crop of this district and thus do awny with the necessity of out side help and keep the hig payrol at home.
