The Oregon St.Ke board of agriculture has announced the state fair will be opened next fall. What's more it's going to be a full dress affair, greater than ever before. Exhibits will include such war wrought contrivances as the farm jeep, DDT powder demonstra tions for insect control, and many other new inventions and meth ods brought about by war that will be altered to meet the neods of farmers. Meantime plans are being made to rejuvenate the fairgrounds which took a heavy beating from military vehicles.
