The Southern Oregon Traction
company line, more Familiarity known
as the Bulls railroad. formerly the
Barnum line between Medford and
Jacksonville. including the trolley
line in Medford, will soon go out Of
existence. at least for the period OF
the war. The fact that part Of the
rails of the line had been reQuistion-

the fact that freight and passenger
traffic between the city and county
seat. because Of auto competition,
had fallen to low ebb. brought
about this decision.
