The different Fair. Associations

splendid display of products and a
great showing of livestock at the
Fall Show in Portland with the
best races ever Jield in the state.
All this has its part in the develoD-
ment of the state, by creating such
an interest in livestock productions
as will mean an ample supply for
the support of the great packing
plants now under construction in
Portland.
Three . Oregon Athletes won
honors at the Olympic games in

Union made such a showing. The
hoys will be royally entertained in
Portland when they return early in
September. , Both athletic and com
