Many people have an idea that
the tourist trade is of little ben
eft directly to Ashland, but ac-
cording to statement made by =
one of the local automobile deal
er their trade adds appreclably to
the income of the stores and bust
mess houses. Only last Saturday
Mrs. Anna r. Kingbury, a tourist
here from Redlands. Calf, made \
4 purchase of S13S.60 in tires at
a local garage, and Monday an
other tourist made a purchase of
SllS in tires. This is only one
Instance Of the money that is left
N Ashland by tourists, and as it
& always strictly cash, their trade $
throughout the summer amounts
y no inconsiderable amount.
