With more and better exhibits than ever before, with a record attendance for the first day, --with perfect weather and everything In readiness, the State Fair of 1913 was opened this morning tinder the most auspicious conditions. Tlie rush to the grounds Marted early and at 11 o"clock tonight it was esti mated that at least 5000 persons had passed through the gates. There was not a Jull moment and visitors were enthusiastic in expressing the opinion: "It is Oregon's greatest State 1-air. There and so taneous' tell about It all. but in the afternoon the races and vaudeville acts in front of the grandstand were the center of . attraction. The stand was more than two-thirds filled with men, women and children, who kept their seats until the last thrilling- race of the day was over. Of course the pavilion and the livestock stables attracted the farmers. Xlne C'oaatlea In Race. Nine counties Benton. Douglas, Washington, Linn. Polk, Clackamas and Tillamook are fighting it out for first prize for the best county exhibit. Benton County, winner of the coveted honor in 1907. 1908, 1910. 1911 and 1912, has fairly outdone itself this year. "Never in the history of the fair has there been such an elaborate represen '. tatlon of field and orchard as there is ; here today," said W. K. Newell, presi- dent of the State Board of Horticulture. "Of course it has been customary to " say this of all state fairs." observed O. E. Freytag, superintendent- ot the pa vilion and manager of the horticultural department, "but this Is really the greatest display toy long odds. There is . not a loot of space in tne pavilion un occupied by exhibits. It will be a dif ficult matter to determine which county . Is deserving of first honor." Judging of livestock was started at 1 o'clock and the Judges said tonight they had made fair headway, but it would take several days to complete the work. The finest specimens of horses, sheep, hogs and cattle in the state are on display. 130 Bablea Jodced. Two departments are deserving of special praise the eugenics contest and the children's industrial depart ment About 130 babies were judged " today, and it is believed that at least "' 00 will be Judged before the blue rlb - bon is awarded. The babies are being examined by Dr. J. M. Waugh, of Hood River, to see if they are suffering from contagious diseases before admittance. Dr. Mary V. Madigan is in charge of the department, and O. M. Plummer is acting in an advisory capacity. That the school children of Oregon are making great headway in manual training, domestic science, agriculture, horticulture and poultry raising Is proved by the exhibit in a temporary building at the rear cf the pavilion. " E. F. Carleton says the exhibit is twice as large as the one last year and far superior in every way. There seems to be nothing in the way of furniture, garments, ' canning, preserving, etc., that the children are unable to do. One boy has built a windmill capable of pumping a small stream of water. Mr. Carleton says that never before have the county superintendents and suprvisors given such aid, and that the management of the fair has assisted in every possible way. The exhibits will be Judged tomorrow. One of the exhibits that attracts at tention is that of Mrs. L- Foster, of this city, who has had a display an nually for 23 years. She has a display of too Jars of fruits, each canned, jel lied or preserved by a different method. No two are of the same variety. pleted and Inspected.

So both the dealer and the user have to pay more to get othSr 7 to 8-year-old bottled-in-bond whiskies. But it is also a fact that you can get the famous W. H. McBrayers Ceaar jsrooK Dor-tled-in-bond 7 to 8-year-old bourbon at the same price that you have to pay for other ad vertised bottled-in-bond whis kies of only 4 to 5 years old. It is our policy to provide Cedar Brook always the same bottled-in-bond from 7 to 8 years old, regardless of expense to attain its individual rich, smooth, mellowness from "dou ble ripening." All other whiskies combined, bottled in bond at 7 to 8 yeare old do not equal the sale of Cedar Brook "The World's Most Famous Whisky."
