Can BE Raised in This Section
of the state.

There is probably no section Of the
country where greater diversity Of
crops can be raised than right here
on the North Side tract and SO sue
cesSful have farmers become in the
raising OF different crops that il is
hard for anyone 10 advise as to Just
what variety will give the largest re-
turns. The past year has shown
most satisfactory returns from the
various varieties OF clover seeds.
and some have even had great sue
cess in the raising of corn.
Now, however. comes the report
from the South Side that the old
White Navy Bean is proving 70 be
among some OF the most valuable
crops in that section. Some expert
ments have been made here in rails
ing beans for the eastern seed hous-
es. though without any great success.
but those who have tired II are Of
the one opinion that the old navy
bean would have given them better
returns. Speaking Of the successful
bean crops on the South Side. the fol-
lowing report comes from Twin
Falls:
Much has been said and written
OF the enormous yields this year Of
red. white and alsike clover. but lit
tie has been said Of the large yields
~ . D-NDNr-sN,s D-O%~ah1a ,-,r
Of ordinary white commercial beans
Twin Falls this year had S2le
acres in beans which will yield ap
proNimately IS cars. a total value Of
something like $4,000 for beans
alone. Four TO five cents pound Is
received by the growers this year
The cost OF growing beans is nominal
and besides bringing substantial re-
turns they also materially aid in
clearing the land OF weeds As 10
overproduction-the supply has new
er yet fulfilled the demand made BY
the dealers in this section
Wm. BueSing. Of Filler. raised IS

For the past several years, M
Buesing has devoted several acres

 As he passed into the drawing room Andrew cast one swift glance toward a small table on the far side of the loom and noted with an slmost imper- eeptible smile a tiny shimmer of blue light that shone from the solitaire dia- mond placed there in readiness for the coming of his guests The husband was large man, of plethoric form and strong. rough, rugged face. redly tanned hy outdoor airs. the tint more dorid from good cheer.

Wainwright was relieved to find that the policeman recognized him, and he was in consequence spared some pos sible annoyanees that might otherwise have been his from being involved in shooting affair at such an hour in such q neighhorhood But when he

He questioned the policeman, but the puzzled official was unable to offer eff fective aid Finally Wainwright took q car eastward on his way home.
 Safe in bis apartment again. Vain wright sat long over a cigar, ponder ing the events of the night. It seem- ed clear enough to him that the com mpnieation requesting d meeting in . Chelsea square had been only a ruse to secure his presence where he might be murdered at leisure
 Wainwright rose at last and went into his hedchamber There sounded the ttnsling of the telephone bell. He put the receiver to his ear. At once n voice came clearly:
 "Is this MT. Wainwright" And then when he had answered in the af-

Andrew wasted no time in pleading. Instead. he went to the telephone at one end of the long library table and spoke into the tranSmitter:
 "Hellol Give me 100 Rector"
 The voice of Walter sounded swiftly.
 Say. what's that numberT'
 The Master Mind turned from the telephone in leisurely fashion and re- gardei the young man with cold dis dain. He placed hand over the trans hitter and replied with significant hrevity, though quite without empha- sis.

 "0n your table MMlter, you will find Il memorandum containing inc instruc tions you are to follow when Mr Wainwright comes.' was the reply.
 .Oh. that" sneered Walter I've been over it already a dozen times to- day-for want of anything better to do in this dead and alive house of mine-not, But what's the use of itj Wainwright ain't coming
 He will c0me," was the unperturb ed answer He thinks you saved his life last night from the attack of some feon he had sent up the river.
 Well. suppose he does. That doesn't prove that he'll come here
 The Master Mind smiled coldly
 "Of course" he admitted, you could hardly be expected to understand. But he is a gentleman, Walter. and he will therefore come to thank you.
 The thief flushed hotly under the un- yelled insult of the words, but he showed no disposition to resent it.
 How can he?n he persisted. "Ae- cording to your instructions, l beat it right after the shooting. Wainwright hardly got glimpse of me, much less of my name and address, I'm think ing

 Walter voiced apprehension In anoth- CT direction.

The Pinkertons would be just as safe, be- Heve me Whenever he went after a man he got him. They say he even got the goods on the Master Mind some how and has him buffaloed. Anyhow the Master Mind went out of business and hasn't been heard of for years. And you must know what he was. There wasn't anything he couldn't pull off till Wainwright came along"
 Yes. I've heard of him Andrew admitted.
 Walter went on. speaking with en- thusiasm.

Bonds Will be Sold
In Next Thirty Days

If no par and accrued interest bid
der appears on the 26th and Mr.. Del
rick fails to make good on his prop
osition, the people have no need for
discouragement. The springs project
will go forward. The date set for
completing it is July l, 1915. The
only thing that will stop that is lack
of cooperation in selling the bonds
on the part of the council. The
commission does not expect any op-
position from the council We think
they are ready to do the right thing.
If the city will pay commission
of 5 per cent Mr.. Greor will produce
purchaser FOR the bonds at par
and accrued interest, with no strings
to it, so that all the cash will be
ready by the time the bonds are
signed and ready for delivery.
Grants Pass sold its bonds at 10
per cent discount, but there is no
need for Ashland to do that. We
know that we can produce a cash
buyer at par and accrued interest
to date Of delivery if the person ne
gotiating the sale is paid per cent
fee for the service.

Miss Robson Regrets
Skipping Ashland

A letter to Manager Vining of the
local theatre from Frank Williams,
manager of the May Robson company
which Cancelled a date here recently
while playing Medford, says that Miss
Robson much regretted skipping
Ashland. 1t was understood that the
manager wanted to play both Med
ford and Ashland and originally
dated at Ashland the night before the
Medford date. Later it was attempt
ed to make the Medford dating be-
fore the play was staged here, at
which the Vining Cancelled the date
here. Miss Robson exceedingly re-
gretted this change, saying that her
former appearance at Ashland was
much appreciated by theatregoers
and that in future she would allow
nothing to occur to prevent her from
filling her dates with Ashland peo-
pie.
AS the show had been largely ad-
vertised here, Mr.. Vining found him
self in an embarrassing situation
with his local patrons and took the
matter up with the booking agency
with some feeling, resulting in pro-
fuse apologies on the part of the
company.

Engineer Will
Go Over Road Plans

"if Ashland was not willing to do
anything, let the people be forced to
use the hill then" Commissioner
Madden stated this was a matter for
the county court to decide. The
court asked IL Ashland was willing
to purchase the right of way so that
it would net cost tho county any
thing. That proposition was deemed
unfair By tho Ashland delegates and
it was cited that Ashland had paved
all the road 20 the city limits with
out asking the county for assistance,
and, Furthermore, tho county had
paved in the city of Medford, in Gem
trail Point, through Phoenix and
through Talent, and none OF the mu-
inequalities had been asked to pay
cent, and it seemed unreasonable
Ashland should be Disseminated
agains to such an extent and be re-
Quired, not only to pave the streets
within its city limits, but to go out
side of its boundaries and buy a
right Of way for the county. 1t was
finally tentatively agreed, however,
that the county would pay one-half
of the expense of the right of way if
Ashland would pay the other half.
Mr.. Kittredge was ordered by the
! court to make the survey around to
the east of the Farnum hill and make
report as soon as possible.
The attention OF the commissioners
was called also to the True hill grade
just east OF Ashland, and the COM
missioners promised to give this
matter attention as soon as possible.
