A few of Cook co"nty's boys and
girls took part in the 1915 State
Boys and Girls Potato Growing
Contest. The result, in spite of the
somewhat unfavorable season, were
most gratifying. Two of the mem-
bers of the Tote Club won honors
for themselves and the county by
carrying off two of the best prizes
offered in connection with the work.
Elizabeth Tofte, whose portrait
appears above, won a substantial
money prize and the honor of hav-
ing the largest yield in the variety
of potatoes grown by her.
Andrew Totte, another member
Of the same club, also was among
the prize winners and received as
his award free trip to the 1916
State Fair and a weeks entertain
ment at the State Farm Bows Camp.
AS member of the encampment he
will be shown all that is interesting
and instructive in connection with
the fair.
The success of these two members
should, encourage other boys and
girls to form clubs and take part in
the valuable work afforded by these
contests.
A number of contests for bows
and girls clubs have been planned
for the present year, and the county
superintendent in charge of the work
will be very glad to furnish full
particulars and to assist all boys
and girls who desire to form clubs.

UraSS nurse crop ohOplQ be Light
It is important that good stands of
grass be obtained in making new seed
ings. livestock raising is increasing
rapidly and grass is becoming more valu.
able.
A common practice is to SOW grass
seed with some of the spring grain crops
Many have an idea that the grain crops
serve useful purpose in protecting the
grass seed. AS matter of fact, the
grass would grow better if sown alone
on clean land. Many times, however,
farmers cannot afford to lose the use of
their land for season and, for that rea-
son, grow crop of grain while seeding
to grass.
Barley or spring wheat makes the most
desirable crop to SOW the grass seed
with. If the seeding of grain can be
lightened somewhat, it gives even a
more favorable chance for the grass.
Barley sown at the rate of bushel and
half an acre, or wheat at the rate of a
pushel and peck, would be better, so
far as getting stand of grass is con-
cerned, than heavier seeding.
The ground should be we'll prepared
and the crop should be removed just as
soon as it natures. If the grain lodges
it is likely to smother out the grass, 1t
is sometimes advisable to cut piece
grain before it is matare to prevent the
snotherlne out of the grass crop. Since
it natures earlier than other spring
grains, barley has an advantage over the
other crops as nurse crop.
Attention to all these matters will
guard against shortage of feed next
year.-Andrew Boss, University Farm.

Record Warmth
Brings Crowds

The thermometer registered 50
degrees above zero in Ashland yes
terday, one of the hottest June days
for several years. At the same time
Medford was sweltering with the
thermometer g. the 100 mark. Ash
land park is the most popular and
the Coolest place in the valley. The
crowd at the Wednesday night band
concert was the largest evening
crowd which has yet visited the park.
Indicative of the possibilities of Ash
land weather is the fact that the
thermometer drops down to around
45 nightly and on last Thursday got
down to S2, which is another June
record. The universal wish is that 1t
will stay warm until after the July
celebration, since 1t is during really
hot weather that Ashland can offer
the greatest attractions with her doz-
ems of acres of shady park which is,
kept several degrees cooler than the
rest of the valley by the snow waters
of Ashland creek.

Rogue River Roundup. They report
a fine trip, Mr.. Bergner stating: "It
is gratifying to note the friendly feel
ing and interest in our celebration
evidenced not only in Roseburg but
in all Of the little towns along the
route" He says there is more en-
thusiasm over the celebration in
Roseburg than in Ashland and that
several hundred people are coming
from there. The merchants of Rose
burg gave the Ashland visitors a fine
reception and assured them that
Roseburg would be we'll represented
here during the three big days.

Recall Election
Monday, June rs

The notice calling an election Of
the qualified voters of Ashland to de-
termlne whether B. r. Greer shall or
shall not be recalled from the springs
, commission of the city of Ashland
appears elsewhere in this issue. The
election date is set for Monday, June
26, and the polls will be open from
8 O'Clock in the morning until 6 in
the evening on that day. Those who
are behind the recall petition which
was filed last week are making an
active campaign to turn out every
vote possible to recall Mr.. Greer and
lively interest is apparent in the
election. The largest vote which has
been turned out in the city in the
past two years is expected.
Candidates for the office of springs
water commissioner of the city to
take office on the commission in case
Mr.. Greer is recalled may be nomi-.
mated by the filing of a petition with
twenty-five names attached. It is
rumored that II. G. Enders' name will
appear on the ballots.
All qualified electors who have re-
sided thirty days in the city and ten
days in the ward Immediately preced-
ing the election are entitled to vote
in their respective wards. The poll
ing places are outlined in the election
call. Following is Greer's statement
as required by law:
"The official acts of the springs
water commission have all been mat
ters of prompt and wide publicity, as
required by the city charter amend
ment creating the commission and
defining its duties.
81 have done my best in the admin
istration of my office and have
worked with an eye single to the best
interests OF the city. The work
shows for itself. | rely upon the re-
suits achieved.
Before the work was done the
Smith, Emery & Company contract
was submitted to a vote of the people
of Ashland and was ratified at an
election held on the 3rd day of May, |
1914, by large majority. Relying
upon that approval, the springs wa
ter commission proceeded to carry
out the contract as ratified.
Section s of the charter amend
ment creating the springs water COM
provided that the commission
shall publish an itemized statement
of all expenditures "and every item
thereof" This the commission did |
at the same rate paid by the city of
Ashland for like notices.
"The $4,000 booklets complained |
Of by the petitioners were printed by
the Ashland Printing Company for
5000. The net profit on the job to
the Tid'ngs was $62 less than is Gus
tomary on commercial jobs of the
kind"

Antarctic Pictures
At Chautauqua

Stories of privation, struggles and
want met with heroism always takes
hold of the imagination. Tales of
exciting adventure enchain the at
tention and thrill the hearers.
OF all the tales in recent years
of heroism and courageous purpose
and lonely death, the story of Capt.
Scott has riyeted the attention Of
all people who have heard that wierd
tale. II Scott had lived, what a
tale he could have told! Yet there
is a story of another Englishman, Sir
Douglas Ma%son, who went through
just such adventures as did Scott
and yet lived to tell the story to men
who sat content and warm by their
own firesides, reading with chilled
spine of the adventures Of this in
trepid explorer.
Mawson came back from the land
of ice and snow with a story more
gripping than the tales of the Ara
bian Nights, and more profusely il
lustrated than any travelogue lee
ture. He WHITES his own statements
with moving pictures secured under
the most hazardous circumstances,
preserved through q months OF win
ter weather and brought back to civ
ilzation for exhibition. These NOV
les are sad to be the most costly
of any ever secured. Twenty thous-
and feet of film were made and from
this six reels of the choicest parts
were prepared for exhibition.
These pictures were secured 1O,-
600 miles from America and 1000
miles from the nearest human habi-
tation in a land never before seen
by the eye OF man. Deep sea crea-
lures never before seen were photo
graphed. A perfect picture was Sc
cured of the windiest spot on earth
-Adelia Land-where the wind has
attained the velocity of ZIG miles an
hour. The largest icebergs we're also
photographed.
And in these pictures of this frozen
uninhabited land-there is humor.
The penguin is more humorous than
the monkey-and a million of these
were photographed in single rook-
cry. The penguin is the originator
of the famous Charlie Chaplin walk
Photographically the pictures are
the most perfect ever taken on a
similar expedition. The expedition
which secured them was the largest
in the history of exploration. 1t was
of &c people and cost over
100000 The expedition covered a
period Of 81 months.
For real movie thrills the Mawson
pictures are hard to beat, and best
of all they are not fictitious, but
true. And when these movies are
presented at the Chautauqua and the.
story told by DR.. Hunsberger of this
most unusual expedition, 1t will be an
for Chautauqua, but one
that will be well received. Evening
of July 13.
