-' La Grande and this part of the
valley Will " be well represented at
Pioneer Day, which Is to be held on
.the 22 of this month Rt Imbler. These
annual gatherings of the Pioneers,
their sous and daughters and frienda
is looked forward to each year with
a great deal of pleasure. The good
citizens of Imbler are doing every
thing in their power to accommodate
the hundreds of people who will be

The county court is to be cotiiiiieii
dea for the activity in attempting tc
enforce the laws regarding the de
struction of weeds, which if let run
wild will destroy the productiveness
of large acres of our best land. The
majority of farmers and property ow
ners realize the danger and are keep
ing their property clean, but often
an - adjoining neighbor by careless
ness lets hts weeds go to seed and
not only seeds his own land but large
acres surrounding him. Grande
Ronde valley is not naturally over
ridden and a little care by all will
soon wipe out the weed problem. '
The county court at its lam session
decided to make a change In the man
ner of handling the county poor, when
the new county building on the Poor
Farm is completed, and that Is no aid
w(lt be granted by the court unless
those receiving aid rssltle "at the coun
ty Institution. . The court knows that
it ; can make qulte- a savins by' this
method.' . When tbe new building Is
nlslued ; and the fewr- general fm
provenlents are constructed, the Poor
Farm will 'provide- a' comfortable
home for tho inmates. Not a few of
the county, charges can help ' con
siderably towards earning their sup
port by working in the gafdMi und or
chard. '' . ' ' v.';
, --Si4
The next big coilnty attraction will
be the fair this fall, The plan will j
be entirely hew for this section, but
by referring to those localities where 1
similar methods have proven success
ful there is every reason to believe
that we as a county are entering npon
an era where our county fairs will
be looked forward to with pleasure
and the purposes of such institutions
realised. It Is simply up to the busl
aess men of La Grande, In a very
large measure, to make good. Other
cities have and ao will we. The first
steps secure the hearty co-operation
of the entire valley and this we be
lelve will he easily accomplished
when they begin to know what La
Grande la going to do and , what is
expected of them. It will require a
little campaign , of education. , All
radical changes do and were It not
for tiiese advanced steps, progres
sion would be Impossible and retro
g ration follow. The new fair idea is
progressive, and when the books are
closed It will show thousands of ad-
' missions in excess -of prior atten
dance, it will be much less expensive
more compact and will permit fea
tures that heretofore were not ' pos
sible. .
