BRING STOCK TO PORTLAND'SSHOW State Fair Exhibitors and Racehorse Owners Leaving Capital City. SURPLUS FOR FAIR FUND Most "-Successful Session in State's History Closes Saturday Xiglit. Hawley Has Good News for Valley Farmers. SALKM. Or.V Sept. 19. (Special.) Ths Oregon.' State Fair this evening closed the"m6st successful session in Its history, and tonight "off for Port land" is the cry of exhibitors and own ers' of racehorses. Southern Paciflo ' freight trains and crews are busy to- nlirht loading and transporting ex hlblts, livestock and racehorses." which will be Been at the Pacific National show' in the Portland Country -Club grounds next week. : The State Fair of 1908 ended without a serious mishap having occurred dur ing; the week. Owing to the fact that the new electric turnstiles failed to operate, the "exact -attendance is not known, but it is certain that each day's crowd surpassed that of the corre sponding, day in any previous year's fair. The finances of the State Fair Board are therefore in excellent condi tion, leaving a surplus which can be expended for needed improvements. By reason of Improvements that will be made, next year's fair, it may be safely said, will surpass this. Coming to Portland's allow. The 1908 State Fair maintained the rep utatlon earned in recent years, that of being a state-wide and not a local in stltution. By remaining out of the county exnlbit competition, Marion has disclaimed any special or local Interest and has shown a disposition to give every section of the state- an equal chance-, to win "prizes. The management Is In no wise local, for only one Marion County man 1s a member of the Fair Board. The best of feelmg has prevailed, and when the Pacific National Show opens at Port land next week it will receive the same liberal patronage from this section of the Valley that" the State Fair has received. not only from Portland, but from other . sections of the. state. Hawley Makes Announcements. At the closing exercises in the Audi torium at the" Pavilion this evening, two announcements were made by Congress man W C. Hawley which are of great Interest to the Willamette Valley. One was that he has secured from the United States Secretary of Agriculture the prom ise that his department will conduct spe cial and extensive experiments in the "Willamette Valley for the purpose of discovering or originating a strain of Corn, that can be .depended upon to produce large crops - regularly.- The other an nouncement was that the United States Department of Agriculture will make special -Investigation -of the subject of al falfa growing in the illamette v alley, with a view to determining the best kinds of.alfalfa to be grown here and the best manner of handling. Congressman Hawley, who Is a mem ber of the committee on agriculture, gave a brief review of the work of the department of agriculture, showing the vast good ,it has accomplished for agriculture In America.
