Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1914-05-04

The field meet held at the Ashland
high school grounds Saturday proved
to be one of the greatest successes
ever pulled off in the valley. The
result of the meet was a victory for
Ashland by a score of AZ points
against Al for Medford and for
Grants Pass. Ashland also won the
baseball game against Grants Pass
by a score of 8 to 2. The game was
called in the seventh inning because
the Grants Pass team had to make
the train.
In the forenoon the East school
team, representing the sixth and sew
enth grades, defeated the West Side
team by score OF Is to Z.
The big event of the day was the
barbecue, over 900 pounds of meat
being donated to the school by citi-
zens. j. ]. Murphy contributed a
2O0-pound hog, d. NJ. Lowe donated
two sheep and cooked all the meat,
while other citizens donated quar-
ter of beef, SO that there was plenty
of meat to go around, and it was
we'll cooked and thoroughly enjoyed.
The track meet was very satisfac-
tory. Some little fault was found in
the first event, the 50-yard dash,
when DR.. Jarvis, who officiated as
starter in the races, called the first
dash off because the men did not get
off steadily and together. In this
dash Peters( Ashland) secured first,
Pelouse (Medford) second and
Holmes (Ashland) third. When the
dash was rerun Peiouse won first,
Peters second, and enc (Grants
Pass third.
In the nib run Ashland won all
three places, that being one of the
few events in which either Ashland
or Medford failed to be represented
among the winners.
The following is the summary OF
the events:

LAND VALUES
 INCREASING
Recent Sales Indicate Ris- ing Market. Section East of Town Being Chopped Into Smaller Tracts

There is no section of the South
 Side that is more rapidly fulfilling the spirit of the reclamation law in
 respect to the making of the greatest number of homes than is fast con-
 ing about in the lands of the east of
 Mesa. This section few years ago was made up entirely of quarter sections, in fact the land between
 the Eastern and Consolidated was all Isold by the quarter, much after the
 fashion of three and four dollar land
 in Western Texas. However, with
 the building of the Eastern, the large land owner has gradually sold and
 parceled out until the forty acre tract is the rule rather than the exception. There is another condition thrust ing itself upon the men who have
 waited year to see how they liked the country before buying and that is
 that land values are increasing very steadily throughout the Mesa sec tion. There is no better indication of this than a couple of sales made the other day by Jesse F. Kelly MT NtHN ulSpOStu Ol d lN-dCFe tract to Professor o. P. Greer of the local High school faculty three an one half miles out on the Roosevelt road for $50 per acre. The land is un- l improved. with the exception that it is fenced and in a beautiful stand of alfalfa. However, the increasing values are not all confined to what 1 is known as the new land between ! the two canals and what was desert a few years ago, but there is the
 same rate of increase closer in. | Through Mir. Kelly, George W. Lewis
 purchased 20 acres of the old Charles Peterson place for $200 per acre This i is old land, but it is unimproved with
 the exception of alfalfa and fences
 MT. Lewis is one of the oldest resi-
 dents of this section and he is alive
 to the land values. The two sales
 will mean further Improvements In
 the case of MT. Greer he expects to improve the tract according to his own ideas of how ranch should be made attractive for a home

TWO SESSIONS FARMERS
 INSTITUTE TOMORROW
Afternoon and Evening Sessions at
 the Normal Auditorium

Interest in the sessions of the which are to be held in Tempe to- morrow afternoon and evening at the Normal auditorium is rapidly increas- ing, giving every indication that record crowds will turn out to greet the six speakers who are to talk upon agricultural topics of special interest and benefit to the farmer of today. The special promoters of the institute who are looking after the two local sessions have met with success in all their arrangements and have every thing in readiness.
 The afternoon session will come to order at two-thirty o'clock Stan ley F. Morse, from the university experimental farm will be first on the program with lecture on Farm Profits" Second will be a discussion of "Dairying" by MT Me Connel, editor of the Progressive Farmer. The third and conclud- ing afternoon address will be deliv- cred by MT Bartlett, assistant state entOmologist on the subject of Tn sects and Insecticides
 Three lectures will be also given in the evening each touching upon different problems of farm life which will be of interest to the farmer. Agricultural Education" will be discussed by Professor J. B. Grif- fling, instructor of agricultural at the Tempe Normal school. Prof A. M. McOmie, superintendent of the farm CTS institute will speak on Soil Management" 1t is the hopes of the management of the institute to have E. W. Hudson. the government cotton expert of Sacaton present to deliver the sixth and final address of the day on Cotton" At all events this subject will be discussed, if not by MT. Hudson, by some one else fully competent to handle it. The evening session will come to order at 7:45.
 Through the courtesy of the Nor nal board of education the audito- rum has been secured for both the afternoon and evening sessions thus assuring plenty of room for every one. Interest in the institute is be- | ing taken on every hand, both by the farmers and the local schools It is quite likely that arrangements will be made that students of the Normal and High will be permitted to attend both the afternoon and
 evening sessions if they so desire
 Interest on the part of the farmers
 of the district surrounding Tempe is
 quite manifest and given every in-
 dication that a large number will be
 present. Those in charge of the ar
 engagements for the two local ses-
 sions extend an invitation to all tC
 attend and hear the discussions tC
 be given. There will be no admis-
 sion charge.
