Losses on these two Items were around $12,000 last year. Tho elim ination of these two Items will make possible daylight grandstand and night fltadlum attractions that are typically western, that It would not be possible to bring to Oregon under ordinary conditions. The nature of these cannot be announced until contracts :hate been signed. Excuses that the fair is "Just the same thing over again" will not be available this year. New features should add to the attendance. Other outstanding fairs have built up a lorger attendance by going ln for outstanding new Attractions each year. The losses incurred on some of the fair's activities heretofore, have made it impossible to add the Tight new attractions. Many drastic changes in operation and new fea tures will be announced later as part of the regular publicity program of tho fair. prices being received. One farmer who shipped yearlings weighing nearly 150 pounds each received an average return or 08 cents per head and another report Is also heard here of a shipment of fat ewes which gave a net return of only 40 cents per head. There lias been but little activity In the wool market here during the pnfit few weeks. Recently a number of Bmall lots have been brought In ffom the farms, a part of which had been contracted sortie time ago at around seven cents per pound. It Is understood that some of the later sales have been mado 'considerably below that figure and during the past week reports have been heard hero to the effect that ho buying at any price was be ing done now.

A weoner pig ted from ,now tlll aU on such feeds as are available on the farm can bo innde Into 126 to 150 pounds of meat for next winter's use. It can bo cured as hams and bacon, made Into sausage, dry salted, or canned, i Pigs can be fattened on pasture with a little grain. Table scraps also make good hog feed. Under conditions such as we are now experiencing one can 'oven raise a hog ln a small pen, supplying It with green grass, table scraps, and a few pounds of grain dally. ' Grow is plentiful at this time. Why not fatten a calf, cow, or stcor On grass and corn, and can the product for next winter's use? Beef put up In that form Is excellent and will fit In well with the garden product now being raised by many families ln our state, ( Mutton and lamb can be cured and smoked ln much the same way that wo preparo hams and bacon.
