It was in 1884 that the present business was established on th site now occupied by the Medford Service station, and in 1906 erected their present quarters on the opposite side of the street. The proprietors of the business are A. C. and Fort Hubbard, who enjoy a large acquaintance among the farmers all over southern Oregon. Hubbard Brothers have handled the world famous products of the John Deere company from the inception of their business. They also handle the other standard makes of farm implements, including the Cletrac tractors, Bean sprayers, and Iowa cream separators, besides every accessory a farmer would need from a wagon tongue on up.
