Sarnrrinv. Ontnhflr 7 what trill it:
amount to, anyway? It is going to be
a reflection of the energy and "get-np-tive-ness"
of all the people in all the
Molalla country. We are going to
have exhibits that do not appear at
the Lewis an! Clark Fair. We are
going to start off our Molalla fair this
year 1U05. If any person's en
ergetic endoavor is not reflected
at this fair, it will be their own
fault. You do not have to raise cab
bages as large as wash-tnbs.ior ears of
corn so long as a fence-rail to com
pete here. Have you nothing to bring
to Molalla Fair? Then look about you
in' Nature's field and gather something
already produced. Don't wait until
you are so situated that you can grow
bonie big affair like St. Louis' recent
show, start your energies out on a
homelike scale. Every person should
be largely interested in thoir own lo
cality. Let not this reflect or cast your
image on a blank spaoe. We want the
assistance of all that each one's bur
den may be small. And las.ly, when
you have seen or haerd of all the
things that the Molalla Fair did not
have on exhibition, then wash your
face clean an 1 look into your home
mirror and ask yourself this question :

What little thina did I trim mv
hand to, as an inhabitantof this beau-
mui moiaua country, to add to the
succcess of this community's attempt
at a fair? Indeed, this fair will
amount to just what extent the people
uiano it, ami ii you are not by and for
the people in mind, soul and spirit,
without a graft, you will probably
not remember the date of October 7,
until too late to rustle up your arti
cles for exhibition.
Free exchange I As a mutual tele-
phono association with five hundred
subscribers and associates in the south
half of Clackamas oonnty, we are not
ready or anxious to put snoh a con
struction on "mutual" or "free ex
change" that would induce us to in
stall and maintain a switchboard at
Oregon City for the benefit and profit
of a corporation. If Oregon City is
afraid we would use their switch too
much, we have a like fear for our
Central. We feel that if we put up
to establish at Oregon City we should
share in the profits.

SPRINGWATER.
While the writer was attending the
Fait, he went to the oratorical contest
on "Intemperance" between the stud
ents of six different colleges for prizes
at The White Temple. The writer
and a good many others would have
judged different. The conclusion is
that the judges gave the prizes to the
big colleges in place of the contest
ants. Chester P. Gates, of Dalits
College, Oregon, and Miss Alice Wick
lund, of Oregon Agricultural Col
lege, undoubtedly should have had
prizes, especially Mr. Gates. The
other contestants were from California,
Washington, Texas and Colorado.

Mitchell, Lewis & Staver Co.;
Through the courtesy of C. E. Jones, the'
Io:al aent, I took one of tho Sanders Dljc
flows into my field for trial. Alter a trial of
one and one-half days 1 was well pleased
with the work dune and purchased the same.
When I took the Sanders Plow into the
field the ground was hard and dry, so much
so that the plow I was using was very
unsatisfactory. 1 believe the Sanders Disc
Plow one of the best plows In use for. deep
summer fallow, and It runs reasonably light,
turns under stubble and trash well and lays
ground very close and even, which I think
will cause the moisture to be retained much
longer than a plow which leaves the surface
cloddy and uneven.
My farm is one mile southeast of Wasco,
and will be pleased to show the work of the
plow to anyone desiring to satisfy himself In
regards to Its merits. (Signed)
