PXGE EIGHT I AT A growing demand of the eastern tourist for the best In hotel accom modations and dining service, and incidentally the demand Is centering this year at only the most attractive vacation spots the country affords, Is being met with a welcome at Crater Lake national park, by Crater Lake Hotel company. Richard W. Price, manager, who cited figures which show a remark able increase in tourist visitations, expects, despite the lateness of the season, one of the best years since the beginning of operation of the famed Crater Lake lodge. The demand is only for the best, according to Mr. Price. Visitors at the lodge, the great majority of whom are from the larger cities east of the Mississippi river, never "shop" for accommodation, but want and expect the utmost in service. Re marks from concession owners along tourist rouiea in all sections of southern Oregon Indicate a similar trend this year. During the week Just past, when fine weather added to the success of business. Mr. Price stated that there was a 40 per cent increase in patronage of the lodge. Due to the lateness of the season figures have not yet reached their usual mid-summer totals, but indications are that the best business in years Is forthcoming during the ensuing two months. For several weeks past the lodge haa been filled to capacity regularly aa the cycle of tourist travel reaches a peak on Mondays and again in the latter part of each week. Com ings and goings have kept not only the regulnr hotel staff busy, but have been exceptionally gratifying In the popular lodge dining room, where the food and sorvice is one of the hotel company's most attractive feat ures. Travel which totaled 14,330 visi tors from July 1 to July IB only, comparing very favorably with form er banner years, hns brought In creased business also to the hotel company's cafeteria, where overnight guests, who last week occupied every available cabin In the camp ground, take most of their meals. Under Mr. Price's management row boats are rented for casual pleasure rides or fishing trips on the lake. Regular launch crulsea are conducted each day with a ranger aboard for descriptive travelogue as the large boat makes lta way around the water's edge, or to Wizard Xsland. Fishing this year is exceptionally good. Qunntltles of sllverslde and rainbow trout planted In the lake years ago have reached a size that Rivea even the veteran sportsman a thrill when they strike with a crash and Rive battle, taking many an angler's tackle. A fishing license Is not required at the lake under national park reg ulations. The limit is eight fish per day.

FOR A FEW DAYS ONLY "Come and Watch Him Paint" DEMONSTRATING Sherwin - Williams Paints By ALFRED F. PEET (Well Known Southftrn California Artist) "Bring in Your Paint and Decoration Problems While He Is Here" WE CARRY THE COMPLETE SHERWIN-WILLIAMS LINE. frDEDFORD ITATLl CANNING CLASSES BY COUNTY HOME AGENT ARE ENDED Last of the aerie of canning de monstrations held for the hememAk ers of Jackson county waa given at the courthouse auditorium Friday, with 125 homemakera attending, rep resenting Medford, Central, Point, Phoenix, Ashland, Trail, Jacksonville, Oak Grove and Griffin Creek com munities. Visitors were also registered from La Grande, Portland and Ne braska. The demonstration, given by Mrs. Mabel C. Mack, county home demon stration agent, Included canning of meats, vegetables and fruits in th! pressure cooker, and use of the tin can sealer in canning in tin. Mrs. Mack waa assisted by Miss Grace Smith, rural rehabilitation agent. Mra. Mack also discussed the causes of food spoilage and the factors In suc cessful canning, emphasizing sound, fresh products, two hours from par den to the can for vegetables, cleanli ness, adequate heat for sterilization, and a perfect seal. Testa for Jars and lids and tin cans to insure a perfect seal were ex plained. To insure adequate heat for thorough sterilization of the food. Mrs. Mack recommended that all veg etables be packed hot and processed In a pressure cooker, if possible. Tne high temperature obtained by use of the pressure cooker will destroy bac terial spores that cannot be destroyed at boiling temperature. This la par ticularly true of the botullnua spores. Due to the fact that spoilage con not always be detected by either ap pearance or odor, all non-acid vegeta bles, meat or fish should be boiled 20 mlnutea after opening Jar or before tasting. This rule should never be violated If the product is canned by hot water bath or other methods, and Is an added precaution for pressure cooker canning. Tomatoes clue to the acid content are classified as fruit and do not need to be reheated. In discussing common difficulties in canning, many questions were asked on how to prevent loss of liquid In the Jars, causoa of spoilage, time for processing and use of pres sure cooker. At the close of the demonstration copies of the new extension bulletin No. 479 on Home Food Preservation were distributed and Mrs. Mack call ed attention to the sections on com mon difficulties In canning, time tables for canning, use of pressure cooker, and methods of drying, stor ing and curing meats. Canning demonstrations were also given Inst week at Eagle Point, Rogue River and Ashland.

A BENEFIT 10 FRUIT CROPS; The silver lining In the clouds hanging over the valley this week Is that the moisture will be of untold benefit to the fruit crops, according to frultmen today, who were unan imous In their opinion that the rain will freshen the trees, conserve irri gation water for the hotter season, and provide moisture at a time when the pears are beginning to take shape nicely. Most of the spraying Is now fin ished, and the growers will not spray again until just before the Bartlett crop is ready for picking, some time between the 12th and 30th of Au gust, almost a month later than last year. The thought that a hard rain at this time would wash away the spray already applied was laughed away as "preposterous" by the grow ers today. County Agent Fowler is out of the city until Thursday, so no statement could be procured as to the actual dsmage to hay crops caught down by the rains, but attaches at his office stated today that there was certainly some damage from that cause. From, one end of the valley to the other, hay was. down, some of It shocked, and some freshly cut and lying in the fields. Some wheat, and other small grains were also down, and It was feared that a good per centage of this would be damaged by mould before It could be sal vaged. fflfl MEDFORD BOYS ACCEPTED BY ARMY According to word Just received here from San Francisco by the army recruiting office here, Walter R.
