The in io object of Columbia County 't exhibit at the (tale (air i to demonstrate that all portions of the county, from the water level to the summits of the moun tains are adapted to the purpose cf agri culture. With the exception of the im mense vegetable from Sauvie Island, and the garden exhibit from St. Helen, everything ,iu the Columbia County booth wa grown on land formerly oc cupied by heavy tir timber, aud some of the bi-tt vegetable, fruit nnd grains were grown at an altitude of 1400 feet above sea level. These facts should be borne in mind when inspecting the really wcndeiful rhowing of this county' pro ducts, made by E. H. Flagg, who ha charge of the Columbia County's in terests this year. The ground coveied represents an area of Over 500 square miles, the greater portions of which is still the domain of the logger nnd tim ber speculator Vast quantities of tim ber are being cut annually, and settlers are invited to purchase the logged oB laud upon which products equal to those shown can oe raised by the intelligent husbandman. Mr. Flagg was the first to advertise bis county by exhibitions at the Lewi and Clark exposition, and since that time Columbia has been rep resented yearly at the Oregon state fair. For the purpose of furnishing complete information to prosp ctive settlers, sev eral thousand copies of the couuty paper, the St. Helen's Mh-t, have been printed aud are being distributed free at the Columbia County booth. Among the products on display in this booth is a wonderful individual display by Asa Holadar, of Scappoosc, He show sixteen varieties of apples, seventeen of pears, and most ever) kind of frnit grown in that section. He has a plate of the famous Gold plum, a very rare fruit. Very few are ever seen on exhi bition at this fair. The grasees, veget ables and fruits of the exhibit are of a very Tiinh quality. Columbia County also shows en excellent exhibit of butter and Swiss cheese, both of bich took first premium at the present A-Y-P ex position. For Salk City Lots. WM. M.

It was one of the penalties' they paid tor being stylish. Nowadays they've outgrown this old belief and realize that style doesn't necessarily mean a sacrifice of comfort. WALK-OVER SHOES have been instru mental in this change of opinion. WALK-OVER SHOES have demoustrated that Style, comfort and service can be satisfac torily combined iu the same pair of shoes.
