Ship Three Cars
Pears For Cannery

The Ashland Fruit and Produce
association is handling a great por-
tion of the pears from the local dis
trict, selling them to Libby, Mcneil
& Libby cannery. Three cars will
be shipped this week, one on the
22nd, one the oath and one the 26th.
The association is sending out the
following circular letter to the grow
ers.
Ashland, Ore, Aug. 4, 1916.
Regarding Bartlett pears for the
cannery of Libby, Mcneil & Libby,
we shall load out the first car on
Tuesday, the 22nd. You can get
your lug boxes for the pears any
time this week. The pears must be
free from scale, scab and worms, and
must be not less than 2A inches
in diameter, good, smooth stock
Pick and deliver as many as are in
condition, on Monday. the 21st.
Libby, Mcneil & Libby are one of
the largest and most reliable firms
in the country, and we are very de-
sirous of filling our contract with
the best stock we can get for them
this year, as it means we will be
given an opportunity this fall to sign
up all of our Bartletts on a five-year
contract at prices as good, if not
better, than this year.
Do not let this opportunity pass.
You must remember that there have
been years in the past when your re-
turns have been less than so cents
per box, and that was on wrapped
and packed stock, and there may be
such years again. Therefore, we
would urge you for your own good,
and the future of the young pear
orchards in this district, to fill this
contract with the best you have.
Yours very truly,
ASHLAND FRUIT ASS0.

Would Replace Two
Boards with One

Petitions are in circulation in the
city seeking to call special election
for September 22 for the purpose OF
abolishing the springs water commits
sion and park board and providing
for the election at the regular De-
cember election of board of three
members, to be known as the mineral
springs mad park board, and to have
Jurisdiction over the parks OF the city
and the mineral water system. Funds
are also provided for the upkeep OF
the park and for publicity purposes.
The full text of the proposed charter
amendment is published elsewhere in
this issue and should be read care
fully and studied by every citizen.
With the possible exception of one
or two points, the proposed change
appears to be good one. The lack
of harmony which has been evident
in the past has been factor which
has retarded the development of Ash
land. The city council and the park
board did not work in harmony, the
springs commission and the city coun-
Gil frequently worked at cross pur-
poses, and the park board and the
springs commission failed to get to-
gether on vital matters, the resulting
friction causing loss of dollars and
lack of efficiency. The abolishment
of the two boards and the placing of
exclusive Jurisdiction over the park
and water system in the hands of the
proposed board appears as a wise
remedy. Under the close scrutiny
which is bound to be given the pro-
posed changes, every point is sure to
be brought out. The Tidings' col
umns are open for discussion of the
proposed charter amendment by citi-
zens.

Fair HikerS
Pass Through

Two mixers" the Misses Ora
Saunders and Martha Barnes, were
in Ashland Wednesday on their way
to San Francisco. They are making
the trip from Seattle to the Golden
Gate on a wager, the conditions being
that they walk it inside of five weeks
and that they accept no gifts or mon
ey. Half of their time is now up and
they are a little over half way to
their destination.
While here they enthused over the
park and left with canteens filled
with lithia water.

Will Fix City Hall
Quarters for Club

The city council has asked for bids
for the reconstruction of room in
the city hall, used for a jail prior to
the construction of the present jail,
into commodious and well-lighted Of
flee quarters which are to be turned
over to the Ashland Commercial Club
at a yearly rental in the neighbor-
hood of one dollar. While no definite
contract has been made for the room
by the club, representative of the
club made a verbal outline of the
clubs wishes in the matter at Tues
days council meeting which was Civ
en- the appreciation of the council.
The Commercial Club will also have
the use of the assembly hall in the
city hall for their monthly meetings
and other gatherings. The chairs be-
longing to the Commercial Club will
also be installed in the city hall, re-
placing the rickety old benches upon
which many a spectator has torn his
trousers.
The new room in the city hall is
to be plastered, walls and ceiling,
floored, wainscoted, a big window
and door put in the front, window at
the rear, woodwork stained brown
and walls and ceiling kalsomined a
tan color. Bids are advertised for
in this paper, and the work will be
rushed so that the club will probably
be able to move into the new quar-
ters in a month or so.

Jobs Many and
WOTkmen Scarce

The workingmen of Ashland, and
even the boys, surely can not COM
plain of lack of work this year. La
Dor conditions have not been so good
for a number of years. Just for in
stance: Homer Billings, who has
been caring for the correspondence
of the employment bureau inaugural
ed by the alumni of the high school
for the high school boys, received a
telegram on August from Bray, ask
ing for five men or boys for work in
the mill, wages s2.75 per day. All
the boys being occupied, Mr.. Billings
posted the telegram in his window,
where it remained for several days,
but got no answer from the idle"
men of the city. This opportunity is
gone now, but last night Mr.. Billings
received a card from Oliver Ander-
son, one of the school boys who got
work at Hit through the bureau,
stating that twenty-four men or boys
were wanted at once over there. 1t
is safe to say that even fraction of
this number can not be found in Ash
land.
Some place where both employees
and employers can list their names
and wants should be supplied. The
Commercial Club might seem to be
the best place for the purpose.

Extend Postal
Delivery Here

The Postoffice Department at
Washington, under date of July 22,
authorized the extension of the Ash
land city mail delivery service from
129 to 245 Granite street, for patrons
furnishing suitable receptacles for
the receipt of their mail. This serv-
ice was sechred through the repre-
sentation and intercession of one of
our recently acquired citizens.

Who Wants a
Nice Live Skunk

o. Gustafson, who resides at 969
Granite street, had an idea that he
would and could trap squirrels. He
set a trap and blithely sauntered out
the next morning expecting to find a
fuzzy squirrel. Instead he found a
skunk. lie says that any one who
is collecting a menagerie or who
would care for the skunk for any
purpose may have it by calling at his
house and taking it away.
