found in the mutton trade generally.

lambs sold down to 81, new. low

raised here to supply the local de-
mand as there is now produced. If
this thing is a success it will help
every citizen in and around Ashland,
and it must be done right. If the
things should cost 100000 it would
add about $32 PER YEAR to the
present taxes paid on the Tidings and
the Greer home. If it is carried out
successfully the Tidings is ready now
to enter into a contract to pay $32
PER MONTH for the next twenty
five years. But it will not cost near
that much to do it right We want
to begin at once to study this thing
and come to see the Importance OF
doing it as it should be done to make
the venture success. Think this

The Home Circle
Thoughts from the Editorial Pen

There is absolutely no redeeming
feature in gossip. Even true, we do
not desire to know disagreeable
things about any OF our neighbors.
Nothing is more demoralizing to a
man than to lose faith in his fellows.
The man of faith and honor is not
apt to be suspicious of others, and
does not willingly believe evil. The
lover OF scandal and immortality and
the believer in it, alike deficient in
honor and morality, are the bane of
we'll organized society. If all gossips
could be quietly killed some morning
the next generation of men and wom-
en- would be happier. A case of hy-
drophobia now and then starts the
cry of "muzzle the dogs!" Death on
the highways! There is death and
mystery in the highways and byways
and the homes from the poisoned
tongues of the gossips. Let the
voices go up, ''muzzle the gossips."
Teach the children that gossiping is
disohnorable and that faith in the
honor and virtue of mankind will
build up society and add to the sum
of human happiness"

MERELY A Personal RACE.

The people of the United States
seem to have been misled as to the
issues the people of Alabama were to
determine in the senatorial primary,
The eyes of the prohibitionists of the
world were fixed on Hobson, as the
hope of the white ribbon if not of
the white race. Hobson. went about
from one end Of the state to the
other, on motorcycle, telling the
people what an awful man Oscar I'm
derwood was, how he was one of the
tools of Ryan and predatory interests
and also tool of the whiskey ring
But Underwood had been in congress
for many years and the people were
fairly familiar with his record. He
had won the reputation on both sides
of the chamber of being an honest,
able, courageous member. This rec
ord had made him the leader of the
democrats, when the political wheel
of fortune gave them control of the
house. The Alabamans by about
10000 majority put their seal of ap-
proval on Underwood's career and
decided to send him to the senate,
which now has a smaller percentage
of able men than it has had in many
years.
At noon the day after the primary
Hobson sent the following message to
Underwood: accept my congratula-
tions upon your nomination. AS the
democratic nominee you can count on
my loyal support in the general cleo
ton" What does this message
mean?
The message merely confirms the
impression millions of Americans had
formed of Hobson. He merely want
ed to be senator from Alabama and
concluded that the best method to
further that ambition was to espouse
the cause of national prohibition and
assall MS opponent as the tool of the
whiskey ring. His message of con-
gratulations, if it means anything at
all, means that his charges against
Underwood were not sincerely made.
1t means that in order to further his
ambitions he raised false issue
against an honorable opponent and
that he hoodwinked the prohibition
forces, including the w. c. T. T., into
contributing to his campaign fund
and lending him other support. His
message means that it was merely a
political footrace and as good
sport" he must pretend that there are
no sore spots" Underwood should
not do his unfair opponent the cour-
tesy Of replying to his message of
congratulations.

The Stranger in Ashland.

/ want to write few lines about
Ashland. We are not entire strang-
ers, having lived here before, and
longing to get back after we had
left. l had been told this time that
the Ashland people do not welcome
strangers, and l found this to be
true.
Walking up one of your beautiful
streets one morning, l noticed wom-
an fixing her yard. She knew my
name and where l resided, and one
of her remarks was this:
you need not think Ashland peo-
pie are running around after strang-
ers."
My heart was sick after hearing
her pour into my ears several un-
kind speeches, and / went home
more saddened woman.
Four years ago, while staying in
Medford, in the same house where a
couple had very sick child, l had
a chance to do something for the
strangers. They looked to me to
save their loved one if possible, and
| nursed him night and day for three
weeks and he lived The people then
said, Are you related to those peo-
ple?" | said, "No; | am a Christian
and doing what | can for strangers
who have no one TO look to-" The
same family came to Ashland, where
we had come before them. They had
some goods to ship by freight to Cali
fornia and the worthless husband had
gone ahead of the wife and child. l
told the freight agent l would stand
good for the boxes, and the Ashland
people thought l had run too great a
risk, but was willing to do it. Word
came back from Willows that the
goods had been paid for and removed
from the depot.
One lady remarked, Let's get her
in the Sunshine Club"
Ashland people, open your hearts
to the strangers in your midst Do
not pass them as though they were
afflicted with leprosy.

First of all for Him;

When our light is DIM"
He looks down from Heaven
To see us shine,

And in mine"

The Ant and the ADhis.

Editor Tidings: As there seems
to be a good deal of scepticism
among fruit growers with regard to
the part played by certain species of
ants in the economy of aphis life, the
ants collecting the aphis eggs from
the trees in the fall, storing them in
their nests and distributing the hatch
ing young ones over the erees in the
spring. | would like to add to my
article in the Tidings last year, draw
ing attention to this fact, by saying
that have conclusive evidence from
experiments and observations that in
this relationship we have the key to
a simple means of suppression of the
black aphis of the cherry and peach
and the apple aphis. 10 do not in
clude the woolly aphis or the green
aphis as / have had no experience
with either of these, but it is very
probable the green aphis might be
included
The ants appear to do the work
of clearing the trees of the eggs so
thoroughly as not to leave a single
egg on the trees. If this is really so,
as it almost certainly is where the
ans are sufficiently numerous, it fol-
lows that by allowing free access to
the tree in the fall and preventing
the ants going up in the spring, we
shall have done with most OF our
aphis troubles. 1t is necessary, how
ever, to keep an eye on the weeds,
for find there are certain weeds on
which the aphis thrives, and IL this
be permitted the trees will become
liable to secondary infection by the
winged aphis.
Our dry climate is i'll suited to the
needs of the aphides, which thrive
best in n moist atmosphere, and were
IL not for the fostering care given
them by the ants do not think they
would figure as pests at all in this
valley. w. TAvERNER.

THINK 1T OVER.

How much money will it take to
work out the mineral springs propo-
sition? That cannot be known until
the estimates come from the en-
gineers. However, we should be
thinking about the matter A large
part of the expense necessary will be
in arranging attractive settings for
the springs at the depot and in the
park. Upon that depends as much
the success of the enterprise as upon
the merit of our waters. The ques-
tion now is: How much will we esti-
mate for the advertising fountains at
the depot; how much for each par
ticular fountain in the park, and how
much money should be spent in i'm
proving the park to make it attrac-
tive enough for the successful ter
mination of the enterprise? The It'd
ings would vote against the bonds
quicker if the amount proposed was
too small than if it was too large.
1t is possible to spend large sum OF
money bringing the springs TO town
and then absolutely ruin results by
kuryinS them after we get them here.
Rittee is laying the plan on such a
scale as the investigation of other
watering resorts proves it should be
laid to get the best results. The
Tidings editor would rather lay the
thing out on a comprehensive enough
plan TO make the venture a success
and have the bonds voted down than
To lay it out on so measly a plan as
TO result in spending a large sum of
money in piping the waters down,
and have the bonds voted, and the
money worse than wasted because
the sum would not be sufficient to
carry IL out as il must be carried out
TO be successful. The Tidings editor,
while at the head of the committee
laying the plans, has exactly the same
interest in the matter that every 9TH
er citizen has; that and no more; he
is a citizen and taxpayer and a bust
ness man. If the project is carried
out on a bond issue his property will
bear its share of the burden. If il
is planned so it will be successful his
business will be immensely stimulat-
ed, his property will rise in value,
and, If he wants to sell il, buyers
will be at hand TO buy; at the same
time others will be attracted here
who will spend money building ho-
tells. furnished cottages, apartment
houses, rooming houses, every avail
able room for rent in town will be
occupied at a fair rent, and this new
wealth will help pay the taxes.
Strangers will be here in great num-
bers when the peaches, berries and
cherries are ripe and on the market:
instead OF us having to ship our
fruits away TO an expensive and un-
certain market there will be brisk
and good home market for them; that
will help everybody: at the same time
fresh vegetables will be here Just as
they are every year, and instead of
the garden grower being unable to
sell his basket of truck. as has been
in the past, there will be enough
strangers in town to eat it all at a
good price, and more, for there will

Every true parent is desirous to
contribute what will add to his child's
happiness, and in large majority of
cases imagines it must be houses and
lands, herds and flocks, or a solid
bank account. But how often this
proves a transitory happiness, serv-
ing the possessor only a day, and
then leaving him stranded on the
beach, helpless and hopeless. How
much better to bequeath him a we'll
developed mind, thoroughly instruct
ed in good business principles, Ian
guage and science, which will enable
him to successfully shift for himself,
and possession that will be his for
ever. Our schools offer this valued
legacy to your boy or girl and you
had better arrange at once to send
them the coming year, though you
may not leave them a single square
inch of territory or single penny in
their pocket. The knowledge that
they may acquire here will serve
them a far better purpose than
either.
