The directors of the Ontario Com
mercial Club have held series of
meetings during the past few days,
when matters of great importance
and interest TO the city we're taken
under advisement. Things have
been happening with quick precision
and the ball of progress which was
toyed with a few months ago has be-
come fully inflated and Is now roll
ing merrily on toward the goal.
After all a city's growth, provid-
| ing the location Is right, is merely a
| question of how much energy is ex-
pended by the local people; the i'm
petus must come from the inside.

During the past week between
| fifty and sixty commercial club sec
retaries, representing as many ore

Salem to exchange ideas and discuss
local problems. A number OF
speakers of national renown we're in
attendance and dwelt upon national
problems over which commercial
clubs have the guiding hand Gov
Ben Olcott In his opening remarks
stated that the creation of COM
mercial clubs was the best index to a

eighty active Chambers Of Com

have already accomplished good
work in this field and have made
many friends in the church and city

firing devotion to duty. The con-
gregation feels that the future Of the
church is in good hands and will
prosper accordingly.

nounced new export rates The re-
duction is about 10 per cent from

CHANGE IN ROUTE
WILL BE PROTESTED

Members of the Jackson county
court and Representative Gore went
to Portland Thursday to attend the
special meeting of the state highway
commission in session there, at which
II is expected the contracts for the
construction of roads in Jackson
county will be advertised for bids. 1t
Is understood that the engineers have
not completed their estimates which
will delay the matter until the April
meeting. ra,
The court will put in a vigorous
protest against the route selected by
Engineer Num- from Central Point to
Seven Oaks, and urge the original
route selected, which follows the
present highway north of Central
Point TO the railroad crossing, and
then cuts thru the Mimms and Salade
orchards, rejoining the highway at
the latter place, and obviating the
two railroad crossings, The route
chosen by Mr.. Num- is a straight line
from the Central Point depot to
Seven Oaks, paralleling the railroad
and running along the right of way.
This line is little shorter, but of no
benefit to the farmers of the section.
Largely signed protests have been
wired the commission. from Medforc
and Central Point.

Peaches Bloom Late
but Pears Normal

In statement made by County
Agent Cate in the Medford Mail Trib-
une the blooming period for almonds,
apricots, plums, and peaches is a
month later than normal but the pear
and apple bloom promise to be out
on average schedule, altho later than
1916 and ten days later than last
year.
From the records kept of the
blossoming dates OF various fruit
varieties for the past three years, we
find that this season compares very
favorably with the seasons of 1917
and 1915" said Prof. Cate. "The sea-
son of 1916 was very early blossom
ing season, for many pear trees as
well as apple trees were in full bloom
during the month of March. The data
on hand shows for the season OF
1917 that the pear buds we're sepa-
rating in the cluster from the tenth
to the fifteenth Of April, and were in
full bloom from April Is to May l..
For the season of 1918, the rec
|ords show that the fruit buds were
separating in the cluster the first of
April and that some pear orchards
were in bloom by the first of April
Our heavy frost occurred between
April 1st and 4th last year, and the
pears were just coming into bloom.
From all indications at the pres
ent time, the pears will probably be
in full bloom this season from the
10th of April to the 25th. The pear
buds are swelling rapidly at thi'
time, and some are beginning to sep
arate in the cluster and it will de
pend upon the weather as to jus
when they will be in full bloom, as i
usually takes from a week to two
weeks after they are separated in thu
lcluster."
