Ashland Tourists Spend
$4,000 In Seven Months
ROAD WORK IN
COUNTY RUSHED
TO BEAT RAINS

The county court is putting the
country roads in shape for winter
travel and expects to have all jobs
now under way completed by the
time the fall rains commence.
The Trail road, the condition of
which was protested by Tom Gaines
and other residents of that section
last spring, has been put in shape
at an expenditure of $3.50. This is
not all the improvement the county
court would have liked to have made
on the road, but 1t is believed it will
better the conditions that prevailed
last winter and enable ordinary
travel to get in and out.
The work of matchmaking the
road on the north fork of Butte
creek is under way, gravel being
placed on a strip mile and a half
long. This is in the Mike Hanley
and Tommy Farlow country, and
these two headed a delegation that
recently went to the county court
with a protest. The macadamizing
will be finished by the first of the
month.
The road in the Meadows district
is being widened and graveled, and
a new covered bridge built across
Evans creek. The Butte Falls road
around Rocky Hill has ben put in
shape for winter traffic. and next
year it is planned to macadamize the
stretch between Rocky Hill and
Eagls Point.
The new Applegate road, which
eliminates the Jacksonville hill, has
been macadamiZed three and one
half miles from Auch toward Jack
sonyllle, and the first rain will see
the county roller out smoothing
down the rough spots. This road
has maximum grade of S per cent.
The county has small crew of
men at work on the Little Apple
gate putting the roads to the school
houses in shape. In a mile and a
half along this stream there are six
teen fUrds, and last weeks work re-
suited in the elimination of four Of
them
Work on the Green Springs noun
tain road has been lessenea and next
week the caterpillar and scarifier
will be put at work by the county
building race track at the coutny
fair grounds south of this city.

Oregon Will Get
Lions Share In
Forest Melon Cut

| PORTLAND, Or, Oct. l7.-Ore-
gon has Just received $102,4S9.51
and Washington $77,1SO.59 as their
shares in the annual receipts from
the national forests located In the
two states, according to information
from the district foresters office
here.
Oregon's share comes from the
fourteen federal forests in the state
and Washington from the eight for
ests within her borders. The
amounts represent the 25 per cent
and the 10 per cent Of all moneys
taken In from the national forests
for the fiscal year closed June 80,
1921.
In Oregon thirty-one counties
share in the federal melon, while
twenty-five OF the counties In Wash
ington share in the portion received
by that state. Since 1906 Oregon
has received total Of $1,260,530
from the forest receipts, while Wash
ington's share for the same period
has been s715,226.29.
In all, twenty-eight states have re-
ceived checks totaling $619,993 from
the United States treasury as their |
share OF the receipts from the ma
tional forests for the fiscal year
ended June 80. An additional S247,-
997 has become available for road |
and trail construction by the forest
service within the national forests of
these same states.
The amounts are considerably
smaller than for the previous fiscal
year, when the total was 81 ,652, ,088.
This Is due largely to the concession
made by congress to stockmen
they are allowed until De-
cember to pay their grazing fees
due last spring. This action was
made necessary by the widespread
depression in the livestock business.
small portion OF the reduction is
due also to a decline in timber sale
receipts caused by business condi-
ions.
Only states within which national
forests exist receive timber funds.
ind by act OF congress the amounts
ire redistributed to counties in lieu
II taxes, according to the acreage OF
ederal forests within their boundar-
es.

Dry Land Farming
Is Successful In
Ashland Vicinity
BY +. l.. NUTTER

After much study and investiga-
tion of local conditions. with two
years experience, | would say that
dry farming in the Ashland district
is decided success.
Apples, peaches, cherries and
pears, as well as prunes, plums and
many other varieties of fruit, grow
profusely, and as fine, large apricots
as ever saw have been produced on
the dry land of this sector
Grapes grow as large and possess
as fine flavor as can be produced
anywhere. | have seen rye that
stood eight feet high, wheat seven
feet tall. Two fine crops OF alfalfa
have been harvested with third foI
pasture.
Corn has made a record here that
would do credit to any corn country
Melons and garden truck OF all varie
ties have been successfully grown.
Much Of the irrigated land OF this
section has been nourished, not only
by water, but by various kinds OF
fertilizer, and has really received
much more attention than the dry
land.
Many persons come here from the
east, where irrigation is unnecessary
and expect to raise mammoth crops
with the same cultivation and modes
OF farming pursued in the eastern
states, and are not careful to keep
the surface of the soil pulyerized.
Great care should be taken of the
non-irrigated as well as the irrigated
soil. Dry land as well as the irrl-
gated should be fertilized
Our most successful fruit growers
who are producing fruit OF excellent
luality and flavor on the dry land
study the individual tree, apply fer.
ilizer, prune, spray and thin accord
ne to its needs.
| speak more about fruit, as that
s the prevailing crop OF this section
md has been paying business for
hose who have made study OF dry
arming.
Before engaging in dry farming I /
vas informed by bankers. merchants
nd numerous persons who were en-.
aged in irrigation farming that non.
irrigated fruit was far superior and
assessed much better flavor, color
nd shipping qualities than the irri-
ated fruit.
Dry land cherries from this sec.
on were shipped to eastern and
Duthern states, being ten days in
'ansit during the hottest days OF
uly, and arrived in perfect condi-
on at destination, which fact Is
cry gratifying to the growers and
great interest to the prospective
myers OF dry land.
The amount OF fruit produced de-
ends greatly upon the age OF the
ee, proper cultivation. pruning and
Inning at the proper time. Guilt
ltion is simple. The ground should
well ploughed in the fall in order
abosrb the winter rains, and
Iould be cultivated before the weeds
art in the spring and as soon after
Ich rain as 1t Is in good working 1
ndltion II the soil Is free from I

Dse Of June the moisture will be
aintained at a depth OF four or five
ches throughout the months Of
Ily and August. I
Much OF the rolling land, II irrl- .
ted, would be washed away or 1
dly cut into by bitches which. II o
rmed by intelligent dry farming a

BASEBALL TRADE
PR0VESOF EQUAL
HELP To TEAMS
Both Pirates and Braves
Strengthened by Meanwhile
Deal Last Winter.

Occasionally two major league clubs
make a trade which is of marked bene-
fit to both. and that seems to apply to
the deal between the Boston Braves
and the Pittsburgh Pirates last winter
which sent Rabbit Meanwhile to Pitts
burgh and brought Barbara. South
worth and Nicholson to the Hub.
At the time the deal was made the
critics declared that Pittsburgh gave
up more playing material than 1t re-
ceivcJ and perhaps this was true.
At the same time there Is no disput-
ing the fact that Pittsburgh could
spare the players 1t gave UP. as Is
shown by the standing Of the clubs.
and the Pirates certainly drew just the
player needed to inspire the club and
make it real pennant factor.
Barbara is playing a wonderful game
at short for the Braves, so good a game
In fact that the spectacular Meanwhile
has not been missed. Southworth In
the outfield is a tower Of strength and
Nicholson has done fine work with
somewhat limited opportunities. since
he has not been playing regularly.
For years the Braves went along
with Meanwhile in the lineup, unable
to make any real showing in spite Of
the fine playing Of the Rabbit. who
seemed to have outlived his usefulness
in the Hub. With another club
Maranville has taken new interest and
Is playing a wonderful game. at the
same time keying up an infield which
needed just such spark plug to make

and the fans around the National
League circuit are all convinced that
this deal proved highly beneficial to
both clubs.
