WATER NOW RUNNING
In NORTH SIDE DITCH

Irrigation for 1912 to lands under
northside ditch is now an accomp-
lished fact, and the SHOW me- man
has only to walk to the ditch to see
the water running.
The pumps at the Golden Drift
dam were started Tuesday and ara
pumping water into the norths!ds
ditch at the rate OF $500 gallons
per minute. Receiver Soranson stat
ed that the pumps would be operated
daily from now on until the end of
the irrigation season. September 3.
The work on the Fruitdale ditch is
well under way and IL IL now expect
ed to have water running In that
canal the fore part OF the coming
week. The 5000 foot pipe line.
which connects the pump with the
ditch, has been relaid It's entire
length, and a crew is now engaged n
removing a slide in the ditch caused
by the recent heavy rains. When
this is done the ditch will be opened
to a point near the Frultdale school
house and the greater portion OF the
lower Frultdalc country will have
the benefit OF irrigation this season.

HONOLULU MAN BUYS
ROGUE RIVER FARM

Wentworth Buchanan was Shrin-
er who came all the way from Hon
olulu, In the Hawaiian islands. to
take in the pilgrimage to Los Ange-
les recently, and as Mrs. Buchanan
had for long time wanted TO come
TO Oregon to make home, Mr.. Bu-
chanan, like the dutiful husband he
is, took occasion to look over the
Rogue river valley in search OF suit
able location. After looking over
northern California and southern
Oregon, Mr.. Buchanan purchased,
through the agency OF w. d. Hodg-
son, of Ashland. tract of 160 acres.
known as the Clark Savage place. on
the Rogue river, a few miles above
Grants Pass. The purchase price
was $500.
The tract is In a beautiful location
on the Rogue. and has great possi-
bilitles both agriculturally and as
the seat OF modern country home.
and Mr.. Buchanan will develop these
possibilities to the fullest. Chas Me-
serve, late publisher of the Rogue
River Fruit Grower, has been en-
ployed and will have charge of the
development OF the property, and
will make OF II an up-to-date farm
and home, pears to be planted as tho
principal crop,
The Buchanans will not move to
the new home at once, and probably
not until 1t has been brought to a
high state OF development under the
management OF Mr.. Meserve, but they
propose to bend every effort toward
the making OF II the home OF their
dreams ready to receive them a few
years hence,
The horticultural, climatic and
scenic features were the determining
factors in the selection OF this local
| lty by Mr.. Buchanan.

KILLS FOUR MEN

MEDFoRD, June 6.-Three men
were literally blown to pieces and
another fatally injured and a fourth
badly hurt by a premature explosion
IN quarry above Jacksonville at
ll:lO this morning. The explosion
is believed by men working in the
quarry to have been caused by a
carelessly dropped cigarette on
powder heated by gas exposed to the
sun, although it may have been
caused by the powderman, who was
placing charge. not cooling the
hole in which he was tamping the
powder.
The dead: John Simmons, aged
about 40, resident OF Jacksonville;
Louis Lazovich, Greek, employed as
waterboy; Louis Bogdon, Greek, the
powderman.
Fatally injured: James Ryan,
aged 26, of Jacksonville, who has
since died.
The injured E. Visino and John
Sutton, both of Jacksonville; Carl
Burns of Applegate, and John Zun-
clio, Greek laborer.
The three men who were killed
outright were horribly mangled.
The body of Lazovich was hurled
200 feet.

BIG DAIRY RANCH TO
BE ON APPLEGATE

J. W. Lucas, of the Riggs, Lucas
Co., returned Sunday from a months
trip of combined business and pleas
ure through the middle west, visit
ing while gone the states of Kansas,
Oklahoma Nebraska and Illinois.
In the corn belt, states Mr.. Lucas
the winter has been so very severe
and spring so backward that the
corn is only now being pknted, and
much of the land is still too wet for
Icultivation. On the other hand, in
parts of Kansas visited, the weather
has been so dry that the wheat is
parching for want of the vital mois-
ture. In Kansas and Oklahoma Mr.
Lucas was in a number of severe
wind storms, and 1t made him ap-
preciate more than ever before the
Rogue River valley where such
things are unknown.
There was never a time when SC
many substantial eastern people
were thinking of coming west as
now" said Mr.. Lucas. IL expect to
see a heavy movement to the west
within the next year or two, and the
class of people who will come now
are the class that will build up and
develop a country, and not buy in IT
simply for speculation. Everywhere
visited that kind of people was
deeply interested, and many with
whom | talked are coming to Grants
Pass later. In fact, one party has
Just today arrived from Chicago,
II having interested these people in
properties here while in their city a
short time ago"
While in Chicago, Mr.. Lucas talk
ed with c. NJ. Leonard, who is de-
veloping the Leonard Orchards to the
west of Grants Pass. Mr.. Leonard,
he states, is laying most extensive
plans for the development OF his
Josephine county property, and the
work he has in mind will mean much
to this district He proposes, among
other things, to construct a modern
dairy, complete in every respect or
the "Penn-Oregon" ranch which ne
lately purchased, at the junction ol
the Rogue and Applegate rivers, and
will stock that ranch with a blue
ribbon herd of Guernsey cattle, the
foundation for the herd having late
ly been received here In the shape oi
$500 Guernsey bull, and a car o.
blooded heifers will be sent little
later. Mr.. Leonard's plan for thii
ranch is to make 1t the foremos
fancy stock ranch in the west. H'
now has a ranch Of this sort at De
Kalb. near Chicago, and be proposes
