Big Oregon .ipples will be distviiiut
ed at the Pittsburg Land show. Octo
ber 12-28, this year, through th ef
forts of the Northwestern Fruit Ex
change and the Oregon Development
league. The exchange will distribute
a carload of fine epples and the league
will attend to their free distribution.
Space has been taken at the land
show by the league and an informa
tion bureau will bo maintained then
Literature descriptive cf the whole
state will be handed out to land show
visitors and representatives of the
northw.?t will bs on hand to answer
questions about this section of the
country. Each community In the state
should forward literature to the Port
land Commercial club, so it can be
sent on to Pittsburg.
Thia land show will be cne of the
Important avenues for reaching colo
nists for the Pacific northwest. Lo
cated as It Is where the three states
of West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsyl
vania corner, the s.ow attracts a
great many farmers from this whclJ
territory and the exhibits of what the
wist can do agriculturally will prove
an Inducement to many of them to
move out here and occupy our vacant
lands.- . '
The Pittsburg Land show has be
come one of the bl? events of the kind
in the country H haa proved Its use
fulness by previous shows and tbi one
this fall promises to be bigger and bet
ter than any ever before held. Cn
that account, the Oregon D?ve!op
ment league has arranged for space
and the Northwestern Fruit exchange
has generously decided to provide n
car of splendid fruit for free distrlbu
tiony There Is not much doubt that the
fine Oregon apples will have a big ef
fect In attracting bom.? seekers' to
