MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 193.1.
VALLEY GROWTH
IS FORESEEN BY
SARDINE CREEK, Bept. IS. (Spl.)
Upon his recent return from Sayre,
Oklahoma, Lrencev Klrtley brought
a picture of desolation wrought by
ancoeaslve yeara of drought and newa
of an Impending exodus of famlllea
from the burned out aectlona of the
mid-west farm belt to other part of
the country.
Until he came here last spring Mr.
Klrtley operated a big farm and cat
tle ranch at Bayre, four successive
crop failures due to aridity and the
dust storms late last winter
forcing him to seek a more con
genial climate and more fertile land.
A short time ago Mr. Klrtley was
called back to Sayrs by the Illness
of his mother and he remained there
until she began to recuperate from
a heart attack.
White there, he related today, he
inspected many farms In the locsllty
and found them In exceedingly poor
condition. The soil was parched from
Jack of rain, he said, and crops were
atunted. The people were eager for
Information about other parta of the
country, many of them planning to
aeek pastures new and green alter
salvaging what they can from this
year's crops, he ststed.
"Everywhere I went I was besieged
by friends and acqualntancea who
wnrited to know about conditions In
outhern Oregon," Mr. Klrtley said.
"I could have made money by open
jog a small booth In Sayrs and
charging, a fee for Information. The
people want to get out of that sec
tion snd they want to learn about
conditions elsewhere before moving.
I believe that not a few of them
will eventually come to - southern
nr..an At. inv rata southern Oregon
has an excellent opportunity of at
tracting many people from all parta
of the mid-west and soutnwesi.
