Union county's fair is assured. The
meeting last evening settled the fact
that this fall another splendid expo
sition will be held in La Grande. There
was a strong sentiment favoring the
rancher as a factor in the fair this
fall. Prominent farmers from . all
parts of the valley will be appealed to
to take a direct interest in the work
as well as to display their products.
This is the right' spirit for . without
the substantial, sane 'thinking farmers
no far can reach.' any derree of ano
cess. " And, besides, the farmers are a
dedly . important part of the Orande
decidedly important part of , tho
Grande Ronde valley.

The Muiio ef Birds. V
Birds are usually accounted the
most musical of aVlmals. yet It is very
much of a task to set their notes to
music. The reason is that birds are
utterly negligent of the laws of har
mony. There Is not one of them, it is
safe to say. that knows the difference
between a major third and a dominant
chord. This deficiency in musical
knowledge Is rather surprising when
we consider how beautifully the birds
sing and may be used as an argument
to show that a theoretical knowledge
Is n humbug. But if birds knew more
about harmony their songs could all be
set down and quite a decent revenue
derived from the sale thereof. Anoth
er reason why it Is difficult to put the
melody of the song birds luto notes is
that the quality of the tone Is unlike
any musical Instrument. This Is true
of all birds except the thrush, whose
hour descends for the first three notes
In perfect seconds and with much
purity of tone.-From Old Scrap Book.
