ALBANY H. S. TOO HEAVY FOR ASHLAND BOYS
In Hard Fought Game Of Football Ashland Lost Game Saturday
Afternoon in This City-ScOre rs tO1

Ashland's championship hopes
went a-glimmering when Albany
took their scalps by score OF rs to
13, in the best game of the season on
the local gridiron Saturday after
noon. Albany played straight foot
ball, their superior beef gradually
wearing their lighter opponents
down. Abraham, big, light-haired
German, was the bright star for AL
bany. He simply couldn't be
stopped. 1t was in vain that the
Ashland rooters walled out, "Ole!
/ Ole! come back" ,"Ole" just kept
on going, He would drag a half
dozen fellows along as so many both
e~some puppies worrying at his feet.
Ashcraft, in the secondary defence,
would generally get him, but only
after he had made big yardage.
Monteith, quarterback, also showed
up well at his position, having his
team well in hand at all times.
Phillips, Ashland's captain and
left full-back, was out of the game
with la grippe. Not only were his
line plunging and forward passing
missed, but the team didn't pull to-
gether without him. While in no
way discounting Albany's victory,
yet with Phillips and Ashcraft to-
gether the result might easily have
been a tie or a victory for the locals.
Harry Rose, a new player from Hud-
son, Wis, put up brilliant game in
Phillie's place. He was especially
sure in catching punts, never making
tumble, although he was a trifle
slow in starting to run them back.
He was handicapped by the fact that
he had hardly had time to become
/ familiar with the signals or with
Ashland's style of play He was de-
cidedly responsible for Ashland s
first points. Picking up the ball

/ Brick" Moody's 45-yard spirals. he
raced around the goal line with it.
/ This fact did much to settle the local
lads to good hard playing and to put
heart into them. Shinn and Spencer
alternating at fulls, put up sturdy
game. Ashcraft's armor-plated
lightning calculating head, however
rounded out most of the yardage fol
Ashland. In the line Dews broke
through repeatedly, while Gravy
Plymate frequently circled the enc
and tackled his man from behind.
Taking it all in all, the Alban!
bunch had it over Ashland, and the
latter should feel thankful for tn,
13 points that fell to their lot The
score might have been worse.
Brick kicked off for 80 yards
when Albany Immediately started
down the hill toward Ashlands goal
which they soon reached, after som,

BROOM FACTORY BUSY
j. G. Miller Il Son Are Now Turning
Out First-Class BrOOms in
Ashland.

One of Ashland's small industries,
which it is hoped will develop into a
good-sized affair, Is the broom fac
tory established by J. G. Miller &c
Son on their ranch east of this city.
They have put in up-to-dare machin-
cry for the work, operated by cleo
trical power, and have already turned
out several dozen brooms ana have
orders for more. The broom corn
used was raised in the Bear creek
valley short distance below Ash
land and proves first-class quality.
Mr.. Miller is an experienced broom
maker and should have the patron
age of every firm handling brooms in
the valley. If housewives would all
insist on having Ashland-made
brooms it would help build up an in
dustry which would mean much for
the city. They have broom corn for
large output stored in their wares
house.

ANGORAs AT CENTRAL POINT.
Carload to BE Placed on the Hammel
Ranch.

A car of registered Angora goats
en- route to the Hammel ranch near
Eagle Point passed through Medford
Friday and with it's arrival, some of
the finest goats in the northwest are
located in that district.
The flock as a whole is considered
one of the finest on the coast. In
the car was Oregon Lad" the prize
winning buck at the Dallas Midwin-
ter Goat Show; "Riddell's Maid"
the doe that created a sensation in
livestock circles by winning all the
firsts over the northwest fair circuit
and the doe that scored 50 points at
the Seattle exposition.
Mohair from this flock last year
averaged five and three-quarters
pounds per head and sold at 45 cents
a pound. The officials of the mill
which purchased it pronounced it
as fine in quality as ever handled.
Angora goat raising in the foot
hills of the Rogue river valley has
been proven to be successful.
James Kershaw, a resident of the
Antelope valley, first demonstrated
how profitable goats were and be-
came known as the "Angora Goat
King of Jackson" He will have to
look to his 'laurels now that this new
bunch is in the valley.
