society for eight years, and
received her accredited judges
certificate from that Society
in 1958. She is member of the
National Rose society of Eng
land, Portland Rose society,
Grants Pass society and Med
ford Rose society.
Mrs. Axtell is interested in
the old fashioned roses as well
as the modern types. She has
a garden of 350 roses, about
100 of which are species and
old fashioned varieties; the
rest are hybrid ,teas, flora
bundas and climbers.
As a hobby she collects
books on roses, especially
those that are old and out of
print. Mrs. Axtell states that
she is very fond of the old
roses and wishes that these
were more extensively plant
ed. Their use as shrubbery
has never been fully realized
by most rose lovers. Many
varieties bloom more than
once and require very little
care. The new consulting
Rosarian states she will be
glad to help anyone with their
rose problems to the best of
her ability.
Anyone wishing to visit
Mrs. Axtell's garden may
reach it by the following
route: travel by Crater Lake
highway to the McLeod bridge
which is approximately five
miles beyond Trail, cross the
bridge and turn sharply to the
teft onto Laurelhurst road
and continue for about three
miles until reaching the sign
"Folding Hills Ranch" on the
left hand side of the road.

Butte Falls - Oregon's Cen
tennial year was commemor
ated at a dinner given Feb
ruary 21 by Butte Falls
Grange. Guests came from
Shady Cove, Ashland, Med
ford and Central Point as well
as from Butte Falls, bringing
the attendance to more than
125 persons.
Tables were decorated in
the Centennial theme and the
stage front with log cabins
and a miniature forest. All
food, even to home - made
bread and butter, were dishes
that might have been served
by our grandmothers 100
years ago.
While guests were still seat
ed at the table, Ernest Smith,
an old-time resident, gave a
historical resume of the pio
neer settlers in the Butte Falls
territory. Many descendants
of these families were present
and many live here.
Augustus (Gus) Edmond-
son, wh.o was born in Butte
Falls in 1890, was honored as
the oldest pioneer resident
and presented a boutonniere.
Others present were his broth
er Robert Edmondson, Edward
Cook, Ernest. Smith and Mrs.
Ben Edmondson, who was pre
sented a corsage for being the
eldest woman present. The
corsage and boutonniere were
made of red carnations, typi
fying the courage of our fore
fathers. Mrs. Delia Littlefield, lec
turer of Shady Cove Grange,
read excepts from Jackson
County Grange meeting min
utes held in the year 1874.
One item of interest noted
that the committee on beef re
ported that they had made
the necessary arrangements
to supply beef to patrons on
the following terms:. The but
cher to be furnished with beef
on foot at 3 cents per pounds
and he to deliver beef at the
door for 6 cents; patrons re
ceiving beef to have the privi
lege of paying for it with beef
cattle. Another item showed
that a motion was made and
passed that, the price of grain
be set at one cent per pound
and flour $18 per thousand as
the lowest price to be taken
by patrons in cash or to pay
debts.
The school band, led by
Leslie Boggan played four
numbers. Parents and friends
were greatly impressed by the
progress made, as this group
was newly organized from un
trained musicians last fall. .
Stunts, . parlor games and
old time dances, such as the
Virginia reel and square
dances filled the evenings en
tertainment.
Most Grange members and
many guests were dressed in
Centennial costumes. Some of
the clothing articles were au
thentic heirlooms.
Many guests had pictures
taken in a setting made up of
a 10-year-old swing rocker,
an antique center table, a
kerosene lamp with painted
shade, an antique photo al
bum and a quilt.
Three large tables displayed
antiques and heirlooms loaned
by local residents.
An article of special inter
est was a Seth Thomas clock
with hand painted door dated
1847.
Another exhibit contained
glassware foimd by Ernest
Smith while surveying a road
several years ago. He believes
because of the decomposed
condition of the log under
which it was found, that it
had been hidden either by In
dians who had stolen it or by
travelers who had to abandon
it during an Indian uprising
in this valley during the early
1850 s. It was found many
miles from where any cabin
had ever been.
Old newspapers, pictures,
legal papers, Bibles, cook
books, oxen shoes, baby
clothes, dishes and numerous
other articles were on display,
