You'd nave laughed if anyone had told you a. city could grow up in the mudhole that was here when last visited the place" said Charles Douglas. retired freighter of Flor ence, who came to Phoenix for the first time since 1888 yesterday.

Vandalism

Friday night, March 26, young
man and lady were seen to enter the
yard of Mrs. e. T. Merrill, on the
Boulevard, and pick a great quantity
of narcissus and distribute them gen.
erously among a number of comrades
who waited for them on the sidewalk.
To some that would seem a small
matter-and girls and boys may say,
What are flowers for, if not to be

citizens are now engaged in making
Ashland beautiful and vandalism de-
stroys the work of Identification.
Mrs. Merrill takes great pride in her
yard and in the city generally and has
gone to great expense in securing the
finest shrubs and plants to be found

Obituary.

Daniel a. Good died March 80,
1915, at Ashland, Ore, after long
illness. He was born September IS,
1873, near Clarinda, Iowa, where he
lived till about nine years of age,
when the family moved to Sidney,
Iowa, where he grew to manhood.
After several years residence in
Omaha, with the E. NJ Hulse Furni
ture Company, he went to Curtis,
Neb., and engaged in the same busi-
ness, being an upholsterer by trade.
From Curtis he went to Boise, Idaho,
and in a few years removed to Port
land, Ore, where he became a very
successful business man. Two years
ago he, unfortunately, became en-
volved, and in a short time lost all
his savings, which he had earned by
honest labor
At this time his health began fail
ing very fast, when in November,
1914, he came to Ashland, hoping to
regain his health, but, instead, he
gradually grew weaker. His case
seemed hopeless one, yet he fought
bravely for his life to the end.
In February he was taken to the
Granite City Hospital, Ashland, where
he received every attention that hu-
man skill could give. The day be-
fore going to the hospital, while sit
ting in the armchair at his brother S
home, he insisted that all his cloth
ing and personal effects be laid away,
neatly and carefully. At this time he
remarked that he would be in the
hospital six weeks and that II would
be an easy matter to figure up the
probable expense. He made similar
remarks to Others also On the last
day of the sixth week he became un.
conscious and, seemingly, God in his
tender mercy gave the poor patient
sufferer just three days of grace and
then took him.
His mother died when he was ar
infant and his father some twenty
years later He became an earnest
Christian worker at the age of fif.
teen and remained faithful to the
end.

the last five years the Yakima, We
natchee and other northern districts
have glutted the market formerly
dominated by the Rogue River fruit
with the result that we are largely
restricted to markets very near home.
California early recognized the COM
mercial Importance of fruits with
shipping qualities and those desirable
for the canning industry, with the re-
suit that. fully so per cent of the
peaches being planted now are clings
for canning purposes. The prices for
well-grown clings of the best canning
varieties have ranged from $25 to
$50 per ton for the last ten years,
with no prospect of any immediate
change; in fact, the canning COM
panies are buying large tracts of land
and planting these varieties. When
Phillips and Tuscan clings at $25 per
ton have the same productiveness and
offer no more difficulty in cultivation
than Elbertas and Late Crawfords
which ale not worth more than $14
to SIC as canning peaches, it would
seem time to stop planting these and
cut back and rebud those we have,
which is very practical procedure.
If so per cent OF our peaches in this
valley were canning peaches of the
above varieties with the addition of
the Lowell, the best canning free
stone, the other 20 per cent would
demand a good price locally. Cali
fornia cans annually about $4,000
tons of peaches with the world as
market.
The growing of small fruits, nota-
bly, raspberries, blackberries and To-
gans, is attended by large crops. The
Cuthbert raspberry and Lawton
blackberry are the best for canning
and shipping. The loganberry is rap

Annes, those best for shipping are
Bings and Lamberts. The Abundance
cherry is a newer sort which is
crowding the Royal Anne for prefer
ence in its field. Pie cherries like
the Early Richmond have been al
most entirely overlooked in local
paintings and there is demand for
these in both cannery and local mar
ket, though not at the price of the
sweet cherries.
In the early days of fruit raising
here the Rogue River Valley peach
was much sought and the freestone
peach was almost exclusively planted.
Since those days and especially in

ROGUE RIVER PRODUCERS.

The commercial future of Rogue
River Valley grown products must be
determined by the magnitude of the1
demand created by home consumption |
and the shipping qualities of products
raised for the damand outside. This |
should be measured by a comparison
of sections near and remote whose
advantages of production equal or ex-
ceed ours and who because of location
have advantage of nearer markets
and less freight rates.
Growing staples, whether hogs or
potatoes, is admittedly a good sound
business practice; there always being
a market at some price. Hog raising
has tempted many valley people be-
cause of visibly supply of Gull fruit
but who have no alfalfa or grain with
which to balance this ration, which in
times like these writes the profits in
red ink. Every ranch has it's limits
of profitable hog production and they
should be early determined. The
trouble with the hog industry, the
raising of potatoes and many other
items is at present that the local
market is soon overdone and there is
no uniformity of quality or quantity
with which to get to the distant mar
kets. The production of all these
products have their problems. Hogs
have cholera, and potatoes scab and
blight. The man who believes in
them studies them all and, keeping
consistently at the job year after
year, wins out. There are some
ranches raising fruit in this valley
that are more suited to raising hogs
and potatoes, but that this is logically
fruit-growing section is evidenced
by climatic conditions and flavor of
developed fruit unexcelled anywhere.
This is not limited to one variety of
fruit but will apply to apples, pears,
peaches, apricots, cherries and ber-
ries
Favorable climatic conditions are
the greatest assets any fruit section
, can have, for 1t is the year after year
crop combined with quality which
wins. A section which is credited by
all other sections as pre-eminent in
the growing of pears cannot afford to
overlook so paying speciality. Rogue
River Valley is not overlooking it.
The growing of fruit, even under
the ideal conditions of Rogue River
Valley, however, demands that the
grower shall love his art, Individual
ize his trees and varieties and study
their needs. The fruit dropped in his
lap should be that of perfection, at
dusk of well spent day, rather than
the victim of the codling moth.
With the choice of soil and location
offered in this valley for the perfect
growing of our full list of fruits it
gives opportunity to specialize in
those best liked.
The last four years local apricot
growers have realized from five to
eight cents per pound for their april
cots. This is fruit which grows we'll
in our foothills, bears as early as the
peach and calls practically for the
same attention. The best varieties
are the Hemskirke, Royal and Tilton.
Commercial orchards of these varie-
ties will pay in this valley and should
be planted.
Cherries on well-drained soils do
we'll here. Those best suited for ship
ping and canning are the Royal
