At New York City's first land show, to he held in Madison Square Gar den November 3 to 12, cups valu ed at $100 each will be offered for the best exhibits of single products. These include wheat oats, potatoes, corn, barley, apples, sugar beets, alfalfa, hops etc. The New York exposition will oe me Diggest land show ever held in America and the most valuable prizes ever offered for agricultural products will be awarded. Agriculture as it is generally practiced, dry farming and irrigation methods will be demonstrated. Moving pictures, lectures, literature and actual farmers will demonstrate the ad vantages of owning and devel oping land. The show will voice the cry of back to the soil". It will show tillers of worn-out land how to rejuvenate their soils or where to seek richer farms, it will point the city man to green fields and will direct the immigrant. It is of special advantage for Oregon and Washington to be well rep resented at this big show and commercial bodies and the rail roads are urging the fullest co operation by Northwest produ cers. F. W, Graham, Western Immigration Agent for the Great Northern Railway. Portland, will supply entry blanks to all who will exhibit and will give full in formation as to preparations for shipping. There is no entry fee required. Urging the governors of all the states to help along the "See America First" movement, Gov ernor West has addressed a letter to them calling their attention to the beauties of the Pacific North west and making them an urgent appeal to do everything possible to stay the tide of foreign travel and turn it to the Pacific coast. Govenor West calls attention to the fact that this tendency on the part of Americans is a great economic loss to the country and and should be combatted on every possible occassion. He estimates that $3,000,000 is spent abroad every season by Ameri cans that should be used in see ing their own country instead. The Govenor calls attention to the big convention called for Baltimore January 22-27, 1912. when the "See America First" movement will be discussed and asks that each state send a big delegation. Crook County will have a big fair and livestock show lasting from October 11 to 14. Prepar ations to gather a comprehensive exhibit of the products of Cen tral Oregon for the show have jflready started and each of the largest cities of the county, Prineville, Bend, Redmond and Madras, will have one day at the Fair. The exhibits to be shown will be sent to Chicago and New York after the Fair closes for exhibition at the big land shows next Winter. Sumpter will have the a big celebration of the year on Labor Day, September 4, which is a bigger holiday among the miners than even the Fourth of July. Rock drilling contests and other sports characteristic of a mining region will be held. Lane County expects to have the biggest showing of registered stock it has ever assembled for its annual county fair, opening September 20 and lasting four davs. The exhibit pavillion will be much enlarged and a groat showing of f arm products will bfl made, GLADYS BESSIE MAY WATTERS Blocks H A 15 on North sidu ol Nig. gcr Creek will lw placed on the market by J.

Few of her friends bad realized that she was iluiL'erouHly ill. She bad beli suffering fur some days and on Tuesday it was iti'ciiled to remove her to tl. Iiospiml where all t hat man can do to prolong life might he done for her. But iIih Owl who knows the future as at the present, who saw the pnin and sorrow tl.at m in lit be hers if she longer lived, who understood how her death uiiifht pe the lueana of bringing others to a nobler, richer life, this Father stretched forth his band and again took to himself the life he had given. Gladys was porn at North Hampton, Ohio, Jan., 13, 1808. They returned to St Helens that same year. Here she climbed life's pathwayfrom Infancy to the very Kates of wntnmhood. Her chnracter was just bey it i.i to take definite form. The pub whool had done its part it) moulding ti r life by the teaching assoriatio' s f the first seven grades.

Next to the home the will be most miss ed from Miss Phillips class. During the Van Marter meetings last spring Gladys announced her purpose of living a Chris tian life and was accordingly enrolled as a probationer in the methodist Episco p tl church. Som bill "Death lies here on her, like an un timely frost, Upon the sweetest flower of all the Held" "We mourn not as those who have no hope" but are comforted by the words of Him who aiid, "Peace I leave with von, my peace I give nntoyou; not as the world giveth, give! unto you.

ASSING OF LANDMARK In the remodelling of the old Meeker house, the younger people of Columbia County see nothing but the improvement to result. To the old settlers of the .county however, the partial destruction of this building, which hafe with stood the ravages of time for more than sixty years, a far different feeling comes. The building was constructed for Capt. Knighton in 1851, by !. A. Miles, Wm. Caine and A. I. Johnson. The lumber and timbers used in its construction was manufactured by Francis 'erry at a mill located at Milton near the old Perry place west of Ioulton, whence it was hauled with ox teams by S. A. Miles. When completed in June, 1851, it represented the first frame building to be constructed in Columbia County from Oregon made materials. The building was occupied by Captain Knighton for a period of ten years when he moved to Vancouver, Wash., renting the house to a Mr. Peecher. In 1862 Wm. Meeker purchased the house from Capt. Knighton, where with his wife Emeline Meeker nee Benton, he made his home until his death in 1882. The old home was occupied by "Aunty" Meeker, until her death in Oct., 1909. Jacob George who recently purchased the property will move a portion of the building to the rear of the lot 'where it will be thoroughly renovated and re paired to be used as a dwelling house.
