What the managers want is visitors who will cometo learn and then scatter good words and encouragement for more and better livestock in the Northwest in all the West, for this is the great show west of the Rocky Mountains, yes, and some exhibits east of the Rockies. Go out there and you will, for in stance, be able to. see the finest and largest lot of Shorthorns ever brought together in the West, not by any means overlooking- the fine array of such stock at the Panama Pacific Ex position.

Draft Horses Innovation. An innovation this year is the in troduction of draft horses. There are about 70 head of Percherons-and other leading- breeds, and they are of a high Quality, many of them being good enough to rank at or near the top at any show ever held In the country. iivery year the show has a judging Contest between the students of the Oregon Agricultural College. Washing ton State College and the University of Idaho. The annual contest took place yesterday, ana for the first time th Oregon Agricultural College students carried off the first prize. The best they ever did before was to get second place. It may be of interest to the reader to know how the show is financed, for it costs a good many thousands of dollars to run it every year. And, re member, there are no sales of conces sions and no admission fees. In the first place, there is an entrance fee of 25 cents a head for cattle, 8 cents for hogs and & cents for sheep, but as the premium list amounts to a good many thousand dollars, such fees would not go far toward defraying- the expenses. The state gives $&ooo a year, the Ore gon State Bankers Association gives $10,000, the Portland Chamber of Com merce $6000, the American Shorthorn Breeders' Association $2500. the Amer ican Hereford Cattle Breeders Asso ciation $2500 and various other breed ers' associations give from $10 up to $400 to the amount of $1165, making a total income, aside from entry fees, of $27,065.

LIVESTOCK SHOW DECLARED IN RANK WITH COUNTRY BEST Addison Bennett Praises Everything but the Weather, but Says Feeling of Optimism Is Prevalent and .Sunny Days Are Expected. BY ADDISON BENNETT. THE Pacific International Livestock Show is with us again, this being the sixth annual meeting, and the management has every reason to be proud of everything save the weather, which -was execrable yesterday, leav ing, however, great chances for im provement! As nearly all of the stock has to be housed in tents, and all o' the judging and sales likewise taking place under canvas, Jt can be, under stood that with the wind blowing as it has bean during the better part of th first two days of the show, o say nothing of the accompanying damp ness, it was Boraewhat of a man's job to keep the canvases up. In some case as for instance the large tent where th &ls were to be held. ,U attempts were a failure up to last evening-, and the canvas lay flat on the ground. ' But the very air Is of an optimistic sort out at the stockyards, and with that spirit pervading . the souls of Messrs. Plummer. Daughtrey -and the others at the helm of the show, things moved along 83 per schedule. As to the owners and exhibitors of the stock. they seemed to .enjoy , the weather, to judge from the smiles on their faces ine grasp ot tneir nanas ana their cheery words. Visitors Frightened Am;. The visitors were not. as plentiful as usual on the second day, as could be expect d, owing to the weather; but tnat made no difference in the re ceipts, for it is a free show.
