Agricultural Notes.

Agricultural Notes.
[By Oscar Gunderson. County Representative
The spring has been somewhat
back ward but seems now to have
arrived in earnest, bringing bet
terroads, green grass and sing
ing birds. Farmers are busilv at
work blowing and soon seeding
and planting will be on in full
blast. The farmers of Conover
have live, active grange, meet
ing every month alternately in
four school houses. Last Sun
day it was our privilege to at
tend one of their meetings at the
Pioneer school house. They had
good attendance and a very
ENJOYABLE time. With routine
business, songs, talks and dis
cussions the afternoon was all
too short. Finishing up was a
good lunch with coffee and every
one started homeward in good
humor better prepared for the
weeks labor through Il little en-
joyment and sociability. Here
is a social center movement in
full blast. 1t could we'll afford
to be copied by other communi-
ties.
From last weeks News we
saw some good accounts of corn
raising in Villas county. What
Mr.. Morgan has done others can
do. Now if corn can be raised in
such quantities the silo is the
next logical step. We give here
an article lately prepared at the
University giving in a logical
way the enormous benefits of
silos and silage in dairying.
TEN REASONS FOR BUILDING A
SILO.
i. Because corn in the silo is
like money in the bank-ready
for use when most needed.
2. Because silage is the best,
cheapest, most economical and
generally satisfactory green
winter feed for dairy COWS.
3. Because silage fed in winter
maintains the herd in a healthy
condition and increases produc-
ton without increasing the cost.
4. Because silage will supple
ment poor pasture in summer
drought and help to prevent that
JulyAugust slump which no
amount of grain feeding can
overcome.
S. Because corn, our most
productive forage crop, by means
of the silo can be harvested with
less labor, less expense, less
waste and in better condition to
feed than by any other method.
6. Because the silo takes care
of the corn crop before frost or
in case of earlier freezing, saves
what otherwise would be a total
loss.
Z. Because it removes the
crop from the ground early,
leaving the field free for blowing
or other purposes.
s. Because it saves labor sum-
mer and winter; makes it posi-
BILE to raise more feed to keep
more cows on the same acreage
and substitutes certainty for un-
certainty in the management of
the herd to an extent impossible
in any other way.
9. Because the silo Yields
greater returns in proportion to
cost than any other building on
the farm.
] 10. Because cows are in the
dairy business ''for their health"
/ the farmer is not-always.
Enough said. Build silo.

Local Garages
Are Consolidated

Ed Gowland has made arrange
ments to close his garage on First av-
enue and throw in his lot with the
Ashland Garage. Mr.. Gowland will
assume charge of the latter garage.
All kinds of lathe work and oxy-
acetylene welding will be done by him
directly, and the aim of this repair
department will be to turn out all
automobile work in thorough and
strictly workmanlike manner. All
who know Mr.. Gowland are aware
that his work is A No. 1, and all
those who are particular about the
repairs on their cars can rest assured
that such repairs will be done prop
erly.
This arrangement will be most sat

comfortable workshop equipped with
the latest device for welding cast
iron. aluminium, brass and steel, and

S. P. AID. Writer
Here Tonight

Mr.. Rufus Steele, representing the
Southern Pacific railroad company,
will arrive in Ashland on No. 16 this
evening to prepare his data for the
railroad advertising of the springs
project. He will be accompanied by
the official photographer of the road
and new pictures and advertising data
will be gathered. Ashland should be
now advertised along entirely lines
than have maintained in the past. We
expect to change her character from
that of a horticultural city to wa
tering resort. The manner in which
1t is advertised will have almost as
much to do with it's future success
as the mobilizing of the waters and
the working out of its settings. Mr..
Steele should be brought in contact
with all citizens who have ideas and
information suitable for advertising
data. Mr.. Steele will be here two or
three days.

Bullet Broke
Store Window

The window glass in the Butler
building on North Main street was
broken Saturday or Sunday by bull
let, evidently from the high-power
gun of some hunter on the nearby
mountain. The steel-jacketed bullet
penetrated the glass and lay in the
show window, and was the cause of
much speculation as to how it got
there. A hole was broken in the
glass about the size of an ordinary
teacup, the glass being carried sew
eral feet by the shock.
Evidently some thoughtless hunter
in the mountains had fired high
power rifle without regard to where
the bullet might land.
Several weeks ago a glass in the
same building was broken, presum-
ably from the same cause, although
no conclusive evidence was at hand
to substantiate the belief. In this
case, however, the steel-jacket bull
let bears evidence of the cause.

Jackson Co. to Send
Carload Products

Jackson county is planning to send
one carload of exhibits for the State
Fair at Salem, to be held September
2S to October 3, inclusive. G. NJ.
Lowe, the famous dry farmer" will
be in charge of the exhibit, which
will consist of boxed fruits, vegeta-
bles and all sorts of agricultural
products. They are attempting to
make it the prize exhibit of the fair,
and If farmers in the vicinity of Ash
land would liven up to the fact, they
would bring all sorts OF fine produce
for the exhibit. Medford has already
contributed two tons for the exhibit,
and can we not contribute just as
much? Let Mr.. Lowe know about
your exhibits, or bring them to the
Commercial Club and Mr.. Seager will
see that they are properly cared for.
Much of the fruit is to be kept in
cold storage until fair time.

The General Idea
Of the Town "Cop''

Chief Porter has handed us the
following clipping in regard to what
the general public's idea is of the
cop:
mo bard embalms the cop in
song, few people praise or toast him;
whate'er he does is always wrong, so
we unite to roast him. He is but the
butt of hoary jests-canst name the
time he wasn't? We damn him if he
makes arrests, and damn him if he
doesn't. We cuss him daily for his
sins, with criticisms haunt him; for
every peeler should be twins-he's
never where we want him. We blame
him if some schoolboy hits our pre-
cious little Willie; we blame him if
the cat has fits, or if the COW goes
silly. We roast him from his crown
to feet, the custom is contagious; and
still the copper walks his beat, calm,
patient and courageous. He guards
the traffic, in great style, from block
ades and congestions, and answers,
with kindly smile, five million silly
questions. When those who roast
him daunted stand, in times of strife
and riot, he takes his life and club
in hand, and scraps for peace and
quiet. He hunts the bad man and
the yegg, he walks all night with
dangers, and gets bullet in the leg
pursuing deadly strangers; he seeks
in dark and noisome lairs the burglar
who eschews him. And in our cosy
rocking chairs we sit up and abuse
him."

Southern Oregon
Exhibit Progressing

The following article from the
Roseburg Review shows how Doug
las county is progressing in her part
of the southern Oregon exhibit III
1915:
Secretary Josephson of the Rose
burg Commercial Club has received
word from Ashland to the effect that
plans for the southern Oregon ex-
hibit at the Panama exposition are
progressing nicely and that the dis
play will be the finest ever assem-
bled in the state of Oregon.
THE floor space and plans for the
display for Douglas, Jackson, Jose
phine and klamath counties we're
placed in the hands of II. o. Froh-
bach Of Ashland, and the details are
being worked out as fast as possible.
1t is intended to make the display OF
the four counties jointly in order to
better attract attention to southern
Oregon, rather than to any particu-
lar county. The four counties have
each appropriated funds for the ex-
hibit and will unite in an effort to
bring about beneficial results from
the display. Mr.. Frohbach will be
in charge of the display and already
has the greater part of the fruit in
process for the exhibit.
"The fair opens in February, and
before that time arrangements will
have been completed and the exhibit
will be ready.
Secretary Josephson says the
farmers of Douglas county have re-
sponded quite literally to the call for
products, and he believes Douglas
county's show will be equal, if not
greater than those of the other three
counties which are part of the
Southern Oregon Association. The
exhibit will include grains, grasses.
minerals, woods, fish, fruits and all
other products which tend to make
Douglas county one of the most re-
sourceful sections of Oregon. AL
ready, Mr.. Josephson says he has
sent many samples of fruit to Ash
land and Medford, where they are
being processed and placed in condi-
tion for exhibiting.
Another meeting of the publicity
men of Douglas, Jackson, Josephine
and klamath counties is to be held
at klamath Falls next week, when
further details will be worked ont.
The floor space allotted to the
Southern Oregon Association is
among the most preferable in the
Oregon building, and is situated al
most opposite the main entrance"
