The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposi
tion commission, realizing the fruit

next yenr, would be Incomplete with
out a liberal display from the Grande
Ronde valley, has taken active steps
to secure splendid exhibits from this
county. The commission has written
C. D. Huffman, asking him to co
operate with them. The details of the
Instructions are Included In the ap
pended letter, in part. A blueprint of
the Oregon building at Seattle accom
panies the letter and Union county
can have as much space as It desires
In the building. It needs no argu
ment to convince the progressive
grower that no better advertising can
be given the fruit of this valley than
through this channel, and It la thought
a generous donation of fruit will be
made. The following excerpts from
the commission's letter tella their own
story: t . r,
"It la our Intention to keep the pyr
amid and tables covered with cold
storage apples and fresh fruit In tea-
son. This will be In the nature of a
mass stnte exhibit and no one county
or section will be given credit for Its
fruit except on the following condi
tions: "If any grower or section wishes to
donate apples this fall, this Individual
or section will be given a certain place
on the exhibit, and this exhibit will be
lobeled with the grower's name and
locality, and this space will be re
served as long as the donated fruit
holds out.
"We will pay the freight on all
fruit donated and place same in cold
storage until the opening of the fair,
without any further expense to you."
Additional Instructions.
In addition to the above letter, Mr.
Huffman has received one from the
Oregon state board of horticulture,
parts of which give additional In
structions: "The apple exhibit must be gath
ered this fall and put In cold storage.
The Oregon commission Is building a
cold storage plant In- the'hascment of
the Oregon building at Prattle, so that
all fruit destined for exhibit can be
shipped there and stored.
"President Wehrung of the Oregon
commission, has asked me to assist
him In gathering this exhibit of fruit,
hence 1Mb letter to you as county In
spector, asking your help. Ton are
familiar with the conditions In your
county and know Just where the best

A
fruit is to be found, and also the peo

the matter. ,
"The commission will pay the
freight charges and store the fruit at
the proper' time, giving to each coun
ty, locality, fruitgrowers' union or In
dividual donating the fruit, full, credit
for the same. This will enable any
grower or association to make an ex
hibit and do some effective advertis
ing at, very1 small expense. L '
"All fruit Intended for exhibit should
be. packed w(th paper, wrappers and
