Products Show, which will open to morrow in the "old Mollne Plow bulld inff" at T?ust !tforrlaon and First streets. The Pacific Northwest Land Products Show is given under tbe auspices of the Oregon State Horticultural Soci ety and the various merchants" and commercial organizations of the city of Portland, and Is an outgrowth of the Annual Apple Show which has . i ( Ua TTftrtlr.nl. tural Society. When preparations were begun last Summer for the apple show, it was suggested that the commercial organi zations of the city Join with the Hor ticultural Society in putting It on a larger scale than in previous seasons. The commercial organizations willing ly swung into line and plans were mapped out in a broad scope. . Funds Are Obtained. Before the preparations had ad vanced far it was decided that the cope of the .show might well be ex tended still more and the result was the Inauguration of plans for the first annual show of the Pacific-Northwest Land Products Association. Committees of prominent business men were appointed, with John Beall an general chairman, and G. E. A. Bond, former, manager of the Spokane Apple Show, was secured as manager. Solicitation of the fund of J26.000 necessary to finance the land show a.nd the Pacific International Dairy Show, which is to be held at the same time, proceeded rapidly. This money was solicited purely as a guarantee fund, since it Is the conviction of those in charge of the show that the receipts for concessions . and . gate admissions will more than recover the - amount expended. As a result of these months of ac tivity, a wonderland of Oregon pro ducts has arisen in the big exhibit hall and will be thrown open for the people of the Northwest to study and admire tomorrow morning. Exhibits are installed there which have never before been assembled even for sucu expositions as that at the world's fair in Seattle. Not only Oregon but the whole of the Pacific Northwest is represented. Exblblta More Than One Thousand. An incomplete list of exhibits com piled yesterday shows more than 1000 separate exhibits entered over the names of nearly 150 exhibitors. Hood River has sent her best apples. Madras her best dry farming products, in the form of Tillman Reuter's prize exhib it fresh from the Lethbrid&e Dry Farming Congress: Southern Oregon, Kastern, Washington. British Colum bia. Idaho and Montana are represent- ed with the best that their land pro duces. , The upper floor of : the building is devoted chiefly to the apple exhibits, which range from 2S-box displays to entries on single enormous apples. Ex pert packers were at work the last three days of the week arranging the apples In the boxes until everywhere thev present solid masses of perfect and brilliant color. Hood River also has several fine exhibits on the lower floor, which, however, is devoted chiefly to the exhibits by the rail roads and to the agricultural exhib its. In the annex the exhibits of the farming machinery companies are sit uated. Nearly every Important firm on the Pacific Coast has Its entries. Special Daya Arranged. Special days will feature in the progress of the show. November 21 of which has been set aside as "Home In dustries Day" by proclamation both of Governor West and of Mayor Rush light, being tbe most important. The celebration of the Home Industries Day will be under the auspices of the Manufacturers' Association, which was the cause of Its being established at thla time, and which will be In ses sion In Its annual meeting at that Ittia. Noteworthv In the programme that has been outlined by the Manufactur e's' Association will be the banquet held on the night of the Home Indus tries day at the Commercial Club. The menu will be entirely Oregon-grown products, and the wording on the menus will avoid the fanciful French tyle so that each one will have no Asahel Smith. Ladner, B.

HOOD RIVER, Or- Noc. 16. (Spe cial.) Even the residents of the Hood River Valley never think of the com munity except in terms of apples, and when R. E. Scott, secretary of the Commercial Club, recently announced that the club would try for the prize in the district agricultural display at the Pacific Northwest Land Show In Portland next week, many were sur prised. However. Mr. Scott has suc ceeded in procuring from different sections of the community a nanasome exhibit of field and garden products. Ranchers were vielng with each other here today in their contributions of such articles as onions, kale, potatoes, turnips, pumpkins, squashes and even corn. The center of attraction in tpwn was the car near the passenger station being loaded with these land products to be shipped tonight. The car containing the club's apples will contain 350 boxes -of the finest in the valley. Secretary Scott declares that he has a surprise, even for home folks, up his sleeve in the exhibit he Is going to make m the Artis appie display. "We re not only going to display the best apples the Valley has," he savs. "but we are going to place them before the public In one of the most unique manners ever . seen in the Northwest. The club Is sending down 350 boxes of apples. One of the ex hibits that is expected to attract at tention is that of the Uptegrove, Cor nell & Mason ranch In the Upper Val ley, which consists of the Gravenstelns grown in that district. Tbe show is creating a great deal of interest among local growers. "Webfoot Oil Dressing, black or tan. The great waterproof shoe grease. Makes shoes wear longer. All dealers." Edlefsen guarantees Hiawatha Coal, W. R. & N. Co., won first prize for the best display. He has a little tract between Portland and Oregon City upon which he produces more than suf ficient food to supply the wants of his family. A part of his exhibit now is on display in the city ticket office of the Harriman lines at Third and Wash ington streets. Many other employes of the O.-W. R. & N. Co., the Southern Pacific and the Portland. Eugene & Eastern par ticipated in the contest and presented exceedingly creditable samples of their products. The contest revealed the fact that nearly half of the 1200 or more men and women employed in the Harriman offices frn Portland have small gardens around their homes. Many have tracts of several acres. Those who are not fortunate enough to possess a piece of ground are looking forward to the day when they will be able to acquire prop erty. . This contest and its attending exhi bition Is merely incidental to the visit which the Harriman ornce employes will make to the Land Products Show at East First and East Morrison streets next Wednesday. The men and women have been granted a half holiday by the company and supplied with admis- siop tickets. The company will pay all reasonable expense in making the visit of their employes pleasant and Drofitable. A committee Is In charge of the details. A parade has been ar ranged to leave the Wells-Fargo build ing at 1 P. M. Wednesday. Many gro tesque and spectacular features will serve to call attention to the demon stration. A brass band will lead the procession. The women In the party will ride on hay ladders. At the build ing a programme will .be conducted. Music, speech-making and other forms of Instructive entertainment have been provided. The prize-winning vegetables will be carried to the show building on wheel barrows and become parts of the gen eral exhibit. Distinctive badges have been adopted and will be worn by all Harriman em ployes. , nAGGIES EXHIBIT BEST EVER Half Carload Comes to Show From State School at Corvallls. rrtv.nnfl AORTCTJV.TURAL COL LEGE, Corvallls, Nov. 16.
