DIR. Keene Pays $4,000 for 200
Acres of Land,

Mail Tribune: Having recently
returned from a trip of inspection OF
California points, DIR. j. NJ. Keene
is convinced that no place has a bet
ter or brighter future and affords
safer opportunities for investment
than the Rogue river valley, and he
has shown his faith by purchasing
the 2OO-acre tract of d. H. Barne-
burg, two miles southeast of Med
ford, for approximately $4,000.
The tract is a splendid one, contain
ing considerable bottom land, which
is devoted principally to alfalfa.
Dr. Keene states that it is his pur-
pose to subdivide the tract and place
it upon the market. The proposed
interurban line between Med, ord
and Ashland will run through q por-
ton of it.
"All the valley needs to make it
the finest in the world is irrigation
and good roads" says Dr.. Keene.
"All they have in California is eli
mate, good roads and tourists. We
have the climate; give us the good
roads and the tourists will come and
the valley can be made a garden
spot with a quarter of the money
they spend in California"

Since the Barnette eases open cd in Valdez that stricken city has been sending out hurry calls for help of all kinds. The latest is to the church, asking for mission aries to help Valdez missionaries in their work of saving souls.
 When the average Fairbanksan gets away from home,it is per- fectly safe to figure that he will break out in something unusual, and that our boys who are now at Valdez, where the price of ev- erything is a little cheaper than in Fairbanks, should be cutting loose and causing a little warm weather in Valdez after the re- cent cold spell is only to be ex- pected. In that quiet little burg, where everything runs along in the same groove day after day the year around, it is only nat ural that the arrival of the Fair banks bunch and their activities in the sleepy town should cause consternation in the breast of the Valdezian, and that they should cry aloud for help.
 Unless the arrival of District Attorney Crossley changed things the seductive and cratic little slot machine is still running in Valdez, and coming from closed town our boys have probably been playing the Valdez slot machines from dawn until dawn, getting action upon the nickles they re- ceive in change in Valdez, and which their training causes them to look upon as excess baggage. Then, too, drinks are two dor quarter in Valdez. witheother lux uries in proportion, and that our boys should show their hospital ity is not unnatural. The sudden access of something doing in Val deg has caused tumult in that place, and help is wanted to hold the town down. until after our boys have left there.
 We have no fears for the safe tye of Valdez. We know our boys so we'll that we know they Will not exceed the limit more than they. feel that.they absolutely are compelled fv3 atd little touch of high life is a good thing for our boys and for the Valdezlans.
