Irene Dunne Heads Cast Craterian Hit Like a panorama of life is "The Secret of Madame Blanche," which comes to the Pox Craterian Wednes day.

The future success of this communi ty and the entire valley hinges upon a cooperative effort to put over the local chamber of commerce according to Hogan who urged the support of those present. Referring to the "10 Years Ago" column in the Mall Tri bune, Hogan stated that in 1923 the Medford chamber of commerce had a total of 638 members and was the third largest chamber In the state.

Bacterial gummosls is a serious dis ease that attacks treo of all the com ing gum areas or cankers on trunks, main branches and fruiting spurs. In mon varieties of sweet cherry, caus sevew cases entire trees may be killed outright. The copper nitrate method of con trol as worked out by the California Experiment station, has given very good results locally when directions were followed carefully, and is, there fore, recommended to Jackson county cherry growers. Gummosls cankers at this time of season may be easily located because of their dark -colored bark tissue, somewhat sunken and near a gum area. The treatment of these can kers should be done now, the method being as follows: Make numerous longitudinal cuts through the bark and Into the sap wool, such cuts to extend some eight to t4n Inches above and below the diseased area. The cuts should be spaced about two inches apart and bound the cankers on each side. After preparing the canker in this manner, mop the entire area with copper nitrate solution, being sure that the liquid penetrates into the many slits. Th copper nitrate solution to be used Is easily made up as follows: Stir one ounce of copper carbonate into two quarts of water, then add one and one-half ounces of concen- i trated nitric acid.

It is admitted thv. one of the In dicted men came upon tho group re moving ballots, by accident, after the "Gooa Government congress meet ing, and became "a willing worker because I don't like the Jennings boys " His oar was used In hauling away some of the ballots. It further charged that some of the ilngleaders in the brazen and bundled enterprise stood across the street from the back of the court house and waved their hands as the auto carrying soma of the ballots away passed. A greater part of the ballots were burned in the courthouse furnace, but come were carted way to the Jackwrnvllle district, and some were dumped in Rogue r:ver. Letters Give Details.

W. A. Banks and at torneys. Another conference was held this morning. He was normal and cheerful, ac cording to the jailers, and la accept ing cell life philosophically.1 Stnte police report that for the past week he hns talked less than during the flrat days of his incsrceratlon. on the advice of attorneys. The first four days of his confinement, he tslked to guards of "conspiracies against me' and "gang plots" and posed as "a martyr for the common people." He suddenly dropped th4s line ot conversation. The last grand Jury, of which Wil liam T. Grieve of Prospect was fore man, recommended that all keys to the court house be turned in. This was due to the evidence that some without right or license had keys, and came and went after closing hours. A check-up of all the kys to the court house is planned. On some of the offices the locks have been chanced, and the combinations to vaults changed. Deputy District Attorney George W. Nlelran testified last Saturday that due to conditions in the courthouse. "It was deemed advisable to keep statements and records in the ballot stealing case In a vault away from the court house." Efforts were still under way today to secure the release of John" Glenn of Ashland, former county Jailer, held on a ballot stealing charge. No effort has been made to secure the release on bonds of Henrietta B. Martin, president of the "Good Gov ernment Congress," or her father. C. H. Brown, secretary of the organiza tion. Mrs. Martin was Indicted last week with her father and two "con gressmen" on a charge growing out of the attempted buggy whipping of Leonard Hall, editor of the Jackson vllle Miner. Brown was also indicted on a charge of slandering a bank,' as the result of a signed article In the Pacific Record-Herald. Mrs. Banks saw her husband yes terday afternoon for the first time since the murder. It was a warm and affectionate greeting. Todav was visiting day at the coun ty Jail, and many relatives and friends of the imprisoned men came to see them. The grand Jury continued Its ses sion.
