Spring Festival
Coming to Medford

The Spring Festival to be held at
Medford for five days and nights be-
ginning Tuesday, May o. will be the
largest outdoor fun frolic ever held
in Jackson county. There will be
fifty distince amusement features ali
under canvas, the tents occupying
three acres of ground at Fifth and
Fir streets, opposite the s. P. passen-
ger depot. The Foley & Burk Com
ibined Shows, comprising the princi-
pal attractions of the fete, are grown
to such proportions that they cannot
be crowded on to the lot used in
Medford on former years, so a new
location had to be secured. Shows
that last season exhibited in ordi-
nary sized tents this year occupy
tents $50 feet long, and the number
of attractions have been quadrupled.
Besides the two ring trained animal
hippodrome, menagerie and aviary,
Foley & Burk present "a monster
circus side show, picturesque Hawai-
ian village, monkey auto races and
other novel and moral exhibitions.
Among the new rides is the jazz
whirl. A fellow starts off with his
own girl and winds up with someone
else's, so completely is the crowd
scrambled" but the sorting is
easily effected. Another new Joy
riding device is the bug house. Ey-
|erybody is bugs" about it. Other
popular rides are the Ferris wheel,
the largest owned by a travelling or
ganization, and a $4,000 merry-go-
round.
A cordial invitation is extended to
the people of Jackson county to visit
the festival at Medford next week,
witness the sensational free acts and
enjoy the novel sights of the $4,000
midway. There will be plenty of
music and fun for everybody.
The Stockton Daily Record of
May IA has the following to say of
the Foley & Burk shows:
Large crowds attended the first
night showing of the many attrac-
tions Of the big Foley & Burk Com
psny The shows have appeared in
Stockton before, but never have they
Offered the variety and the high
standard of entertainment that de-

LANE COUNTY FARMERS
WILL RAISE MORE RYE

A larger acreage Of rye has been
planted in Lane county this year
than ever before and people who are
raising the cereal are enthusiastic
over its value, according to N. S.
Robb, county agricultural agent.
Mr. Robb says that last year about
5000 pounds of seed were planted,
while this year over $4,000 pounds
were used in this county. The use
of rye for pasture was suggested last
year by Mr.. Robb on account OF the
scarcity Of hay and other feed and
those who acted upon the suggestion
are said to have been greatly pleased
with results.
