BE
LATER-
Almost invariably. In a normal sea
son, the flnst chlnook salmon caught
on rod and Una Is taken from Rogue
river near the We-Aak-U Inn at Sav
age Rapids, about March 18. Season
after season, the time seldom varies
more than a day or two. Last sea
son, and many other seasons in the
past 10 years, the first salmon was
taken on the exact day, which proves
how regularly the cycles In nature
occur This season, it may be later
before the first one 1b taken, not
because the water will still be high
and roily on that day. This Is a late
spring and the creeks and tributaries
are running full and strong, with
lots oi snow on tne higher eleva
tion still to melt and run out.
Placer mining Is the one big in
dustry that Is bringing revenue to
southern Oregon during these times
of depression and the people of this
section would feel the depression and
hard times even more keenly were it
not for the thousands of dollars
worth of gold dust that Is being
brought in every day from the placer
workings In almost every gulch and
tributary that empties Its waters in
to th? Rogue, with all the banks of
the nation closed, and all kinds of
business dormant, awaiting settle
ment of the confusion in financial
circles and the return of confidence
In our banking Institutions, old na
ture's banks are still open and the
amount that can be drawn is only
limited by the efficiency of the meth
ods used to draw the money out.
And this Is surely a Godsend to the
people of southern Oregon.
From all Indications the Apple
gate. Illinois and other tributaries
below Grants Pass will likely be mud
dy until quite late In the season.
Most of tlje small streams above
Grant Pass are emptying a steady
flow of highly colored water into the
river. That which comes from Pleas
ant creek and Evans creek Is par
ticularly rich in color, a deep yellow
ish red, the color of good mineral
palat. Once this substance is in sus
pension In the water It does not set
tle or precipitate but continues to
. discolor the water as long as there Is
movement. The water from the mine
on Sardine creek is of a darker hue,
being mostly sand and loam, and
settles more quickly Some muddy
water is still coming In from Foots
creek as all the small placers on both
forks are still working, and will con
tinue as long as the present flow of
wator keeps up.
However, In an Interview with D.
H. Ferry, superintendent of the
Rogue River Gold company, operating
the big dredge on the rlghthand fork
of Foots creek, the writer was assured
that as soon as the water in the river
clears sufficiently to permit salmon
fishing, he would cause all the muddy
water coming from ' the placers on
both forks, as well as the overflow
from the dredge pond, to be diverted
into the settling basins that have
been prepared and that no serious
dlsoo:oratlon from the waters of
. Foots creek will be allowed to reach
the river.
Mr. Ferry's elaborate clarification
system has prevented any discolora
tion from Foots creek affecting the
river in fishing season for the past
three years.
A sudden deluge from the Foots
creeK watershed during one of the
heavy winter storms washed out part
of the diversion system that had
been in operation for the past two
years, but this has been replaced and
a new dam built that will take care
of the normal flow of the stream.
This hearty cooperation on the part
of Mr. Ferry and the company he
represents Is sincerely appreciated by
all In this community who are In
terested In fishing, either from a
business standpoint or as a recrea
tional sport. With a plentiful water
supply in all streams, the placer
miner is having his day and work n
the mines will continue later than
usual. Let us all be thankful that
wo have one industry that is pro
ducing revenue. The fishermen can
wait.

Bommer Writes Play
On Life of Jackson.
Southern Oregon's dramatic groups
are welcoming the announcement that
Prof. Angus L. Bowmer of Southern
Oregon Normal school, who has ai-
ready established a reputation here
in the field of drama, has written a
play about the life of Andrew Jack-
son, which will be produced in the
near future for the pleasure of the
local public.
The play promises to be the most
elaborate bit of home produced enter
tainment ever offered southern Ore
gon's theater-goers, and Is far from
amateur, in plot and lines.
Professor Bowmer, whose ability is
well known to the Medford public.
Is also directing the play and .the
cast has been chosen from Southern
Oregon Normal school's most sea
soned actors.
The play makes vivid the pictur
esque' life of Andrew Jackson, who
was destined to set a new goal for
American democracy. Of the produc
tion a local critic has said: "Jack
son's life was like a story a pathetic
story filled with misfortune, disap
pointments and struggle always
filled, however, with a great and
beautiful love love for a woman
whom the world looked upon as an
outcast. But in the end It was Jack
son who became the idol of the
masses. As the first president from
the common people, he stands out as
a glorious achievement In the history
of America. And now the pen of a
southern Oregon dramatist, Prof. An
gus L. Bowmer, has caught and re
corded the Incidents of Andrew Jack
son's life."

IS EXPLAINED BY
CITY'S INSPECTOR
Owing to several inquiries as to
the significance of a producer or dis
tributor of milk being graded, I offer
the following: ,
Medford's milk ordinance provides
for four different grades of milk,
namely A, B, C, D. It further pro
vided that grades be published after
each grading period and also In cases
where anyone is degraded for cause;
should this occur the party so affect
ed is placed in a lower grade than
he was in. until such time as he
can again comply for a higher grade.
Fundamentally, the milk ordinance,
like any other ordinance, Is a regu
latory measure and I made primarily
for the protection and safety of the
consuming public, therefore. If con
fidence can be established with this
same public that the ordinance la be
ing complied with, both in spirit and
letter, by producer, distributor, and
Its surveillance. Just to that extent
It stimulates consumption and makes
Medford a more desirable place in
which to live, both for those now
here, and for all who enter our midst.
Viewed rightly, we are all associates,
the consumer, producer and distrib
utor, and each should appreciate the
sincere efforts of the - others to co
operate in furnishing a milk supply
second to none at a price equal and
just to all.

Milk and Dairy Inspector.
