LAi SHOW ENTRIES
NEARLY ALL PLACED
Tenth Street Is Strung With
Lights and Armory Is
Ready for Opening.
SOME EXHIBITS DELAYED
Feature of West Hall 'Win Be "1018
Bar," Where Women May Par
take of Soft Drinks With Bet
ting Men Are Used To.
Exhibits of the various counties at
the Manufacturers' and Land Products
Show, which will open tomorrow, -were
for the most part, in place last night,
when the Armory closed and the rest
of them will have their exhibits com
pleted easily by tonight. It is thought.
The manufacturers' exhibit! are going
in a bit more slowly and many of them
probably will be up to the last minute
in getting in readiness for the opening
Monday night. The lighting of the
halls under the direction of H. B". Wold
was practically completed last night.
It consisted of a re-assembly of the
material used in the Rose Festival
at the Civic Center and on the prom
enade leading- to it. Over the main hall
are draped long chains of green and
red Incandescent lamps and similar
light chains are worked out In the
other exhibit halls.
Tenth Street Lined "With Lights.
Tenth street is lined with lights as
far as Washington, where a canopy of
colored lights attracts ' attention and
lirects one to the promenade down
tenth street to the Armory, where the
show is being held.
Among the exhibits that were
finished yesterday was the "1916 bar."
which will be a special feature In the
west exhibit hall. It is conducted by
the Chamber of Commerce, under the
direction of S. Davidson. While the
bar has all the sinful fixtures, even to
the brass rail of the regular saloon
bar, nothing but soft drinks will be
served over It.
Loganberry Juice, non-alcoholic malt
drinks and other thjngrs that are ex
pected to be with us in 1916 will be
dispensed by bartenders in regulation
uniform. For the first time perhaps in
the history of Portland, women may
lean against a regular bar, set their
foot on the brass rail alongside the
foot of husband or sweetheart and de
mand that he "name his poison," quite
in the manner heretofore monopolized
by men.
UraiiM Feature in Decorations.
Grains and grasses are the most
prominent figures in the decorations of
the various county booths. Morrow
County, however, has a fine display of
vegetables In the body of the booth,
in front of the display of grains and
grasses. W. W. Smead is in charge
of this exhibit, which is the choice
from the recent fair held in Morrow.
-Umatilla, Jackson, Clackamas, with
a fine apple display, Lincoln with fruits
and vegetables, Columbia, Polk and
Union were the counties that had their
exhibits furthest advanced yesterday.
In all. there will be 23 counties rep
resented in the -west exhibit hall, where
the land products displays are situated
The ceiling of this exhibit hall is
decorated beautifully with oak boughs
bearing the russet Autumn leaves.

WOOD PAVING ILLUSTRATED
Treating Plant Designed to Teach
Farmer to Prolong Life of
Fences and Effect of Woods
on Streams Xoted.
One of the chief attractions of the
Land Products Show this year will be
the Forest Service exhibit.
The service aims to make a special
feature of the forest products of Ore
gon. A model of a properly-laid wood
block pavement is to be shown, the
model being four leet long and one foot
wide. Kmphasis is to be placed on the
fact that there are several species of
wood grown in Oregon suitable for this
class of pavement in fact, more than
3.000.000 miles of wood block could be
laid from wood grown in the State of
Oregon.
There are also to be tiny piles of
stacked lumber, .slabwood and of saw
dust. Beside them there will stand a
clay replica of Mount Hood, giving an
idea of the amount of lumber, slabwood
and sawdust in the state.
Treating; nut la Dralcord.
The third feature in the forest prod
ucts exhibit is a miniature treating
plant, designed to show the farmer how
to prolong the life of fence posts by
creosote or other preservative treat
ment. The effects of erosion upon a defor
ested watershed, and the irregularity
of flow in a stream resulting from for
est destruction, will re shown by a
unique model. A timbered mountain
slope, -with its surface covering of
moss, twigs and forest debris, will be
represented. Beside it will be a simi
lar area entirely barren of vegetable
growth. A tiny stream flows from each
area into two lakes at the base of the
mountain. The water coming over the
forested area is clear and the now reg
ular; that coming from the denuded
area is muddy and the flow spasmodic.
In this connection a relief map of the
Oregon National Forest will be exhib
ited, showing the Bull Run watershed,
from which the City of Portland gets
its water, and also the network of
roads, trails and telephone lines which
form a part of the protection system
which keeps the water pure and pre
vents forest fires.
HiMfr Methods Illustrated.
A complete outfit of flreflghting tools
used by forest rangers will also be
shown. Prominent features of this part
or the exhibit are the Osborne fire
finder, by which the ranger locates fires
at a dlstanoe: storm-proof telephones,
i and the small portable telephone re
THE - SUNDAY
PUT FINISHING TOUCHES ON BOOTHS FOR MANUFACTURERS AND
cently invented by a member of the
Forest Service. , . -
This portable telephone weighs only
two and one-half pounds and is to be
used on most of the National forests
during the next five seasons. Many
of them were in use during the past
season and this trial demonstrated the
fact that the portable telephone is a
great improvement over the former
heavy apparatus.
The space occupied by the - service
will be lined with evergreens native to
Oregon and further ornamented by a
series of bromide enlargements show
ing numerous activities of the Forest
Service.

PARCEL POST PACKING.
Proper Method of Preparing Ship-
meats and Materials to Be Vsed
Will Be Shorn.
The United States Postoffice Depart
ment will have part in the Manufac
turers' and Land Products Show, open
ing tomorrow at the Armory and ad
joining buildings. A similar exhibit
was made last year and Portland offi
cials say more than 10,000 questions
were asked by Interested visitors re
garding the parcel post division.
Tbls branch ot the postal service is
practically in its Infancy, but there is
no doubt that in the near future the
parcel post will be the means of fur
nishing market for the products of
the farmers, as wpU as supplying the
farmer with facilities for the purchase
of goods from a distance and having
them delivered by rural free delivery
direct to his home. In this connection
it may be stated that the Portland post
office is compiling a list of producers
and the commodities they have to sell,
which will be printed and distributed
to the Portland consumers without cost
to the producer.
The intent of the display at the Man
nfacturers' and Land Products Show
will be to illustrate the method of pre
paring for shipment, and a demonstra
tion of a line of containers and pack
ers which art now manufactured ex
pressly for the use of making parcel
post shipments. A Government clerk
will be detailed to make explanations
and give all information concerning
rates and regulations governing - the
parcel post.

tablih a profitable acquaintance with
Oregon as it really is today.
Chamber Conducts Show.
This year the exposition Is given by
and under the auspices of the Portland
Chamber of Commerce. Since Indus-
trial and land products are the featura
of the rast- display, covering 75.000
square feet, the directors and officers
of the exhibition were selected from
the manufacturers' and Industries and
Oregon development bureaus. The. show
this year covers a period of three
weeks, and the doors will be open
afternoons and evenings, with the ex
ception of Sundays.
The industrial and land exhibits of
fer the serious side of the exposition,
and the amusement features arc in
tended to keep up Interest In the great
show from day to day. provide oppor
tunity for many local clubs, organiza
tions, societies and fraternal bodies to
have an active part In the life of the
enterprise.
The displays made by manufacturers.
retailers and jobbers have been assem
bled in the main Armory building. Spe
cial exhibits are arranged in the bal
cony, and the ballroom will be the
scene of many entertainments where
the events are too large for the thea
ter. Products of the soil are grouped
In the temporary structure covering
Eleventh street from Couch to Davis,
and thence on Davis for more than 250
feet.
With 23 Oregon counties bringing in
their displays of fruits, grains, grasses
and vegetables, and competitive exhib
its of apples, pears, potatoes, onions.
nuts and evaporated fruits, every phase
of the agricultural life of the state will
be represented in a most comprehensive
manner.
Industries to Be Demonstrated.
Life and action will chaarcterlze the
displays In the industrial section at the
exposition. Working exhibits will' be
many and varied and models will be
shown to illustrate how Oregon goods
are made. Each exhibit will truthfully
represent short excursions Into the fac
tories of the city and state.
On display at the show will be many
articles manufactured in Oregon that
have gained National prominence from
systematic advertising campaigns. New
markets will be created as a result of
the exposition, and many of the coun
ties exhibiting will have a, golden op
portunity to exploit what they produce
in the way of special articles suitable
for the city markets.
Taken all together, the Manufactur
ers' and Land Products Show will bene
fit the exhibitor and the visitor alike,
and the show will be something In the
nature of a Winter school for the study
of the agricultural and industrial fea
tures of the state.
More than S00 exhibitors will have
part in the exposition. As early as last
Monday representatives of counties in
Oregon were in Portland arranging for
their part In the big show. Industrial
exhibits are about ail Installed, and
when the exposition opens tomorrow
night it will stand complete in every
detail.
It is noted that the' various exhibits
are Installed with apparent ease. Ore
gon has always been prominent In the
Chicago. Minneapolis. St. Paul and
Portland expositions. . Counties of the
state have profited by this experience
and the character of the agricultural
and horticultural displays has greatly
improved the last 10 years, so much so
that some county in Oregon undoubt
edly will carry home a gold medal
and $200 in cash for the best display.
Tour-tat a trared o Attend.
The exposition will be of unusual in
terest this year, since it is expected
many tourists in Portland, en route to
or returning from the expositions in
San Francisco and San Diego will at
tend the show while visitors in the city.
Portland hotels will urge upon their
guests to visit the land show and the
railroads are offering low fares for the
round trip to encourage travel from
within a radius of 250 miles of the ex
position city.
Amusement features and special
events on the daily programme will
not be confined to Portland alone. The
entire State of Oregon will have a part
in the entertainment end of the enter
prise and cities, towns and communities
will send delegations of their business
men to Portland to view the exhibits.
Many bands and musical organiza
tions will be heard in daily concerts
at the exposition, and there will be
new features on the programme after
noon and evening. Parades through
the downtown business section will be
of daily occurrence.
CORX BOOTH TO BE FEATURE
O.-W. R. & X. Company Will Show
Samples Grown by Counties.
The Oregon-Washington Railroad &
Navigation Company will have a corn
booth at the Manufacturers' and Land
Products Show, where samples of corn
grown in different counties reached by
the lines, both east and west of the
Cascade Mountains, will be exhibited.
The marvelous Improvement "both -in
quantity and quality of corn being
grown in the Pacific Northwest is
largelv due to the strenuous corn cam
paign" the O.-W. R. & N. has -carried
on for the last four years. This ex
hibit wiil exemplify the advantages of
careful seed selection and the use of
acclimated seed. The question. "Can
corn be successfully and profitably
grown in the Pacific Northwest?" haa
been answered in the affirmative as
demonstrated by the samples of corn
shown at county, district and state
fairs this season.
The quality of corn and the yield an
acre indicated that with properly se
lected seed, well prepared ground and
thorough cultivation an acre of corn
not only produces more stock feed, but
In reality is one of the most profitable
crops the farmer can grow In rotation
with grasses, small grain or vegeta
