THE CITY BEAUTIFUL
GARBAGE DISPOSAL
IN THE SUBURBS
Public Indifferent and Slow In Adopt
ING Reforms.

When so many reforms in the dis
posal of garbage have been initiated
during the last few years and have
been approved from both the hygienic
and convenient standp0ints, the popu-
lar Indifference and disheartening SLOW
ness of the public in adopting them is
difficult to understand or to forgive. In
certain suburbs there are public gar
bage collectors who come daily, or in
some cases twice weekly, leaving a
somewhat odoriferous trail behind
them, which may be scented without
difficulty many blocks away. But not

In many cases. a serious menace to

premises always attracts stray dogs.

OF the several ways in which to dis
pose Of garbage one Of the best is burn
ing 1t, and for this purpose there are
some excellent devices on the market
today, which are operated without
emitting any unpleasant odor whatso-
ever. One of them may be easily at
tached to all kinds Of ranges and
stoves. including gas and gasoline. It
has a fitting hopper, into which the
kitchen garbage and sweepings are put,
and as soon as the hopper is closed the
waste heat from the fire passes
through and around it and reduces the
contents to carbon and ashes.
Another apparatus for garbage dis
posal is a cremator. This is operated
by gas and consists of cylinder four
teen inches in diameter and twenty
four inches high, which is lined on the
inside with pure asbestos to retain the
heat. It may be placed where most
convenient in the kitchen or in the cell
lar and requires only gas supply and
a chimney connection. It is very mex
pensive to operate and consumes only
fifty cubic feet Of gas an hour. Forty
five minutes is usually considered am

CITY GARDENS IN CHICAGO.

An Idea Which 10 Capable Of Great De-
veIopment.
Henry NJ. Hyde, writing of the city
gardens Of Chicago in the Chicago Trib-
une. says:
A visit to one of these city gardens
will reveal nothing especially pictur-
esque or exciting. But If one uses his
head as we'll as his eyes he will be GER
tain to see in them all something more
than the germ Of an idea which is capa-
BILE Of almost unlimited development.
There are in all these tracts of land
more than 500 individual gardens. On
each to which any kind Of care has
been given will be raised enough deli
cious fresh vegetables to supply a fam
lily. In many cases there will be cab
bages and root crops produced in addi-
ton which will last during the fall and
large part Of the winter.
On the Foster avenue gardens along
the drainage canal three men who are
out Of work have built themselves n
little tent and lean-to, in which they
are living. Their gardens on the east

city.
Inside the limits Of the city and Of
Cook county there are literally square
miles Of land which is lying idle, unoc-
cupied for any useful purpose. Almost
every acre Of 1t II loaned to one Of the
City Gardens association would be left
in much better condition than 1t is al
present.
For the first year or two. until the
city gardeners get supply Of tools to-
gether and really fall in love with the
work. it is necessary for the City Gar
dens association to spend some money
in blowing the land, getting it in order
and paying the salary Of an expert
farmer to supervise and direct the job.
The average cost Of all this associa-
ton work has been about S. garden.

and energy put into 1t by the president.

who serve without any thought of pay.
The average market value Of the crop
produced on each garden has been at
least $25, making no allowance for the
gain in health and in spirits on the part
Of the gardeners and their families.

COLLARS TO HAVE THEIR DAY.

Collars will have their day on many
frocks for fan. Despite the resistance
which popular opinion seems to exert
against the re-entry of the choker, that
relic of other days and modes bids fair
to dominate the collar styles for today.
Boned and high and tight-these
three rules provide the indissoluble
trinity of rigidity from which no self
respecting collar Of the 1915 fall vint-
age may reasonably hope to escape.
For one piece dresses Of serge or
gaberdine, white collars Of broadcloth.
flannel or net are to be proffered.
These will obviously close in front
with a row Of tiny buttons from top
to bottom. indicating the line Of abra-
sion, but not their usage, for they are
to be decorative merely.
Tabs. turnovers and flaring Eliza
bethan RUIZ effects will seem to be
wildly trying to emerge from the top
of these awe inspiring chokers. No
matter how tight they are. we will
wear them just the same.

YalloW In Popular.

Yellow is an extremely fashionable
color this season, as is evidenced by
the number Of pale yellow dance frocks
at every olr MIR, of importance and by
the hats :,!.l.n.td with yellow daisies

day at luncheon hour was of black
milan in elongated sailor shape, with a
trimming Of white petaled. yellow cen
tered daisies Of exaggerated size all
around the base IF the crown and a
simple bow Of i,i X MORE ribbon

headed pins held this hat to the hair,
which, by the way, was dark, and
around the edge of the brim was draped
one of the graceful sanpan wells. the
latest veil notion of fashion. These wells
are square or circular affairs, cut out in
the middle to fit over the hat crown
and with an elastic run through cas-.
ing, so that the veil holds itself on with.

Famous Liberty Bell To Be
Given Royal Night Welcome

exact length of the stop here is not
known as yet, but the relic will be
here long enough to allow all to see
it.
Monster celebrations are being
planned all along the line to welcome
the bell but none can equal in
uniqueness the night welcome which
will be accorded here. Since the bell
does not stop in other valley cities
crowds are expected from down the
valley. Let every man, woman and
child in Ashland forget sleep or get
along with a couple of hours less
Thursday night and give the bell
which doomed out the news of Amer
ican independence a royal welcome.
With the bell comes a delegation
of Philadelphia officials and a guard
Of six stalwart Philadelphia police
men. The bell is transported upon a
specially constructed car and the
train crews which take it over the
Shasta division will be especially Sc
lected for their ability to start and
stop a train without jar which might
further crack the bell.

MazamaS Will
Climb Shasta

Laden with alpenstocks and various
other paraphernalia for the conquest
of Mt. Shasta, a party of Mazamas, 81
in number, from Portland passed
through on a special train at 7 Sun
day morning bound for Sission, from
whence they will make the trip to the
summit of Shasta on foot. They plan
to pass two weeks in the vicinity of
the mountain and will not only climb
it but also will explore its various
slopes and the surrounding region.
This will be the second trip made
to Mt. Shasta by party of Mazamas.
During the early days of the camp
side trips will be taken to various sec
tions of the country to enable thoses
of the party not accustomed to the
rigors of mountain climbing to get in
trim for the ascent.
About a dozen members of the
party plan a side trip to Crater Lake
on the way back. They will leave the
special at Medford and proceed by
auto to the lake. They will then go
to Klamath Falls, where they will
take the train for the rest of the
journey.

Three Thousand
Sunday in Park

A crowd OF more than three thou
sand persons spent Sunday in Ashland
park. At one time about one hundred
and fifty automobiles were lined up
along the streets adjoining the park.
Over a thousand out of town people
spent the day here and picnic parties
we're numbered by the score. While
the day was not overbearingly warm,
the park was far more comfortable
than the streets and big portion of
the home people spent the day along
the banks of Ashland creek.
Union services at the Chautauqua
and the Saxony singers attracted
many in the afternoon. 1T the end
of two months and during next sum-
mer Ashland will have many times
the attraction for out of town visit
ors and the Sunday crowds will grow
accordingly. When the city can Of

of the park, several kinds OF mineral

Hills Delights
At Luncheon

Nels Darling, the town builder,
was unable to get to Ashland last
Saturday in time for the business
mems luncheon at noon, and in place
of Darling DR.. Hills spoke. If Dar-
ling could have created any wider
enthusiasm than did Hills, he must
be a wonder. The renowned doctor
had his hearers with him from the
start and delivered a speech which
was brimming full of punch and
caused the seventy representative
AsblsAders present to burst into
spontaneous round of applause.
Although Hills had just arrived
in the city and had not had an oppor-
tunity to look over the development
or even to be told of the develop
ment, he brought with him memories
of former visit and said that the
beauties of Ashland were indelibly
stamped upon his mind God never
made a place equal to Ashland" were
his opening words. Development
along aesthetic and beauty develop
ment lines was the program which he
outlined for Ashland, and in fact de-
lineated many lines of development
which are already going forward. At
the close OF his speech DR.. Hills was
accorded an ovation such as has
never been accorded a speaker in
Ashland.
President Newcombe of the Com
mercial Club presided over the lunch
con, which was served at the Oregon
Hotel. Mrs. Miller, one of the Chau-
tauqua entertainers, provided a few
minutes of most enjoyable entertain
ment, and Prof. Irving Vining, re-
Gently returned from New York, told
of the effect which the developments
accomplished had secured.
After the luncheon DR.. Hills was
taken over the park and city and eX-
pressed surprise that the work which
was being accomplished should CO.
ordinate so perfectly with his ideas
of what should be done.

Young Lightweight
Makes Home Here

Brud Shamrock, lightweight
boxer known up and down the Pa
cific coast, arrived with his wife in
Ashland last Thursday and will make
his home here for the summer.
Shamrock has lived in nearly all of
the resort cities of California and
says he would prefer Ashland for a
home town to any of them. He eX'
poets to go to Reno in the fall and
will seek contest there. Shamrock
was in Wizards corner when he
fought Williams in Reno July 4,
1918, and has a great opinion of the
big fellow. He predicts that Will
lard will hold the heavyweight
crown for five years.. In his opinion
Wolgast is the best of the light
weights. According to his newspaper
clippings Shamrock has engaged in
129 contests and of these lost two on
fouls and one by decision. Accord
ing to the peppery little fighter he is
ready to fight 129 more.

That the people are interested in

curious, is evidenced in the many
queries as to where in the building
that set of deer horn furniture is
located, Eight pieces, valued at
$1,000 by the Roseburg owner, are

and it is remarkable that so many
people hear OF this and come to look.
F. w. Bartlett, Jackson's representa-
tive there, tells them all about it,
and then they stay to enjoy his own
showing of fish and game from this
sportsmen's paradise. Coos Bay also
has a splendid showing of game, and
birds in particular, in a booth adjoin-
ing, and Klanath's fifty deer heads
and pictures OF "a days hunting and
fishing" bring many to Philip Sinnott
to ask questions. A very large num-
ber are interested in fish and game
and outing places, and three or four

into the Mackenzie country have
written about that they had found
that region even finer than he had

Lines on Pavement
Direct AutOiStS

While the city sleeps painters are
at work these fine nights renewing
the glistening white lines which di-
rect the automobilist in which way
he shall drive in the Plaza district
in order to escape the wrath Of the
police and traffic officials Several
new lines have been painted. One
set marks off the crossing in front of
the postoffice and automobile owners
are forbidden to stop their cars in
front of the sacred space. Other lines
mark the course which the driver
must take in rounding the corner at
the west end of the Plaza park. The
Plaza from the roof of an adjacent
building begins to appear like an
European war map. The Chautauqua
and park seekers who come up from
down the valley make traffic quite
congested in the Plaza. AT one time
Sunday there were forty-eight cars
lined up near the city hall.
