W. SCR1BER, Cashier a n n n d p n d a i KM rier 101 9vmm m m i During the St Louis fair last j ear, the exhibits of the state of Oregon has opened the eyes nf the other states in our Union, as well as the other nations of the world, in regard to the won derful resources and capabilities of our great state. Not only has it been demonstrated to tbe world that our production in minerals and ores, in quantity and quality, are second to none, but we have shown that our vast forests of timber are unsurpass ed and our lumber of the best mialitv obtainable anv where in the world is shipped to all points of the compass, to many sister states and to many foreign na tions. Our cerials are the very best that mother earth produces and now .demands the highest price in tbe market places of .the world. But above all things in which Oregon has stood head and shoulders above the west, is in the fruit exhibit at the St Louis Fair, especially as to the exhibit of apples made by this state. She has been adjudged the highest prizes by the judges at the fair at fit Louis in this line, and comments of the press throughout the United States and the expressed opinion of all those who were f oi tunate enough to see the exhibit of apples from Oregon at St Louis goes to prove that the judges have not erred J in their deci ion. It is pleasing to note, and itmay .be of interest to our, readers to learn, what some of tha people from the but side think of our exhibit, and we will for this reason put be fore them the following extract from "The Western Fruit Grow er," a monthly magazine pub lished at St Joseph) Missouri, and one'of the best known and most widoly circulated maga zines of tbe kind in the United States. We all know that Miss ouri is one of the best fruit states in the Union, and not only this, but it is a place where they "have to be shown"; know ing this we can more fully ap preciate the following ' article from the above mentioned paper.- "Last month we referred to tha plendid exhibit of apples mada by Oregon daring the last days ot the World's Fair. The Oregon exhibit was made op ot oommerolal apples, the paokages not being eelected (rait, bat taken f rt m tha lot whloh waa offered or aala la rarioit p arts of tha country. Thia ibowa that the ordinary commer cial frail from Oregon was in teality show' irnlt. It la noteworthy that moatottheaa apples when unpacked, showed the signs of the spraying whioh the trees and the fruit bad reoeired. Tba bloaaom and stem end of the apples showed the white ot the Bordeaux mix. tore. Even on the sides of many of er Galloway And Mr ChasV Galloway doetde aerre great credit for the capable and -ffl;nt manner in which be has maa- aged the fruit exhibit oi Oregon at the St Loula Fair. v nlf thli artlole appeare but Mr Frank HoWlnger, a competent Jadge Bnt oonBliaaar in tbU line, in writ ingan article on tbe rruw u" tha Rt Loula Fair atatea aa follows :- "Mt i imnreuion was that Iowa naa the cieaneit show of all until Oregon unloaded a oar of applea In bustiei boxea.
