COUNTY FAIR THIS FALL?
Lant year there were good and
uilicient reasons why the Central
Oregon Livestock and Agricultural
association should not undertake
to hold a county fair. Those rea
sons, however, died with the year.
This next fall should witness the
largest county fair ever held in
Central Oregon. The display
could and would he iwst complete
and satisfactory in every detail.
It is not too early to begin the
work. Hue notice at this time
will give stockmen and fanners an
opportunity to prepare their ex
hibits and produce the best.
A more opportune time than
early fall for holding a county ex
hibit will never again W given the
community. A a thorough ami
convincing advertiser of the
county's wares it would step to
the front rank.
There will be many strangers in
this vicinity about that time.
Opportunity could then le afforded
them to see in a day the resources,
products and possibilities of a
county which would take them
many weeks to cover as thoroughly
and see to as great an advantage
as would he offered in a collective
display.
An exhibit this fall is a matter
of business to the county. !Vttlers
coming here to spend their money
and make their home have a right
to expect that something of the
county's productive attractiveness
be shown them. A county exhibit
can serve very well in this capac
ity as an information bureau.
Products from both drv hind'
and irrigated farms; ores from the
mines; lumber from the forests;
livestock from both range and
stables and a score of other pro
ducts collected together would
prove a wonderful educator not
only to outsiders but the home
people as well, and as a business
proposition a few hundred dollars
could not .1 more profitably
sjvent.
The time to get the matter
started is this month. The time
to raise the necessary funds is this
month. The time to advertise
thoroughly to the county pro
ducers that they will be asked to
put their best products on exhibi
tion this fall is this month. The
time to lose loth time and in
terest in the matter is this month.
Don't do it.
An exhibit for the whole of
Crook county this fall means much
more to everyone in this county
than can be told in several col
umns. Onlv a couple of the sal
ient advantages hove been men
tioned. There are many others.

depth of 26 feet on the Wm. Pan

The well in which water has
