The educational exhibits are three times as large as last year, according to Superintendent -Carlton, who also lilVI that im. rhlMn'i .tKIU. a.- Kit per cent larger than last year. The school exhibits include those sent from Portland and Salem, and the counties of Lincoln, Jaokson, Lnne, Linn, Ben tn. Polk. Wasco, Clackamas and Mai nour, all of which are splendidly rep renented. The children also have an immense display of poultry, totalling over 600, and a barn full' of pigs. Otto Ilusnell. a. Polk county. boy, has estab lished a record by raising a pig weigh ing 2SS pounds when months old. The extent of the exhibits is a sur prise to the visitors who today 'thronged the various departments. De spite "ie fact that the new oavilion provides a great increase in space, there is none too much. Eastern Oregon has some very fine exhibits hero this year and la showing more interest in the fair than at any previous time in its history. One of thn mnut Ttnl a-rMhlta of the old pavilion, which is used for the educational department. Is that of the Oregon Agricultural college. The O. A. C. ras spared no effort to show not only the scope of :ts work, but to educate the people as to better meth ods in growing crops of various kinds In this state. Opposite the O. A. C. department, but occupying much less space, is the exhibit of the University of Oregon which is also very com plete and nlghly interesting and in structive. Xasan Make Showing. A remarkable exhibit is that of the state hospital for the insane, snowing as it does what efficient teachers can accomplish with patients. Linen of the finest weave has been turned out by the Inmates and it is on display. Though none of the patients could weave before being placed in the asy lum, many soon became proflcler.t un der the instruction of a young woman who learned the trade thoroughly. The patients also have been weavine rugs end have been successful in blending tne colors and making handsome floor coverings. A loom on which the rugs are woven IB also in operation today. Several patients of the sewing room asked to be permitted to operate the looms at the ralr and their wishes are being gratified.. Some handsome bas kets and other things woven by pa tients are also on display In the booth and that the patients have a fine sense of the artistic is shown by the de signs. "The patients are permitted to fol low their own ideas as to designs," said one of those In charge of the booth. "They are anxious to demon strate to the public their efficiency, and this year we will ler half a dosen or more come here to operate the looms and weave baskets. Of course. jr tney did not want to come we would not ask them to do so, but they are Interested In their work and eager to keep it up. Patients are put on this kind of work when they are recover ing their reason and feel the need of something to take their minds com pletely off their Imagined troubles. They make an enormous quantity of Roods for wear in addition to the kind we have on display here today." Prison league Exhibits. Another interesting exhibit is that of the Pacific Coast Protective societv and Oregon Prison league, goods made by Inmates of the prison being dis played. "Pen" Parker, recentiv en roled from the Oregon prison, is in charge of this exhibit Besides being a cartoonist, Parker is good talker nu nis Doom draws many people." The children of Oregon bave demon irsiea weir industrial ability this year better than ever before. The ex hibits include a great ouantlrv of hoth useful and ornamental goods made by manual training departments of schools. Immense Quantities of rnr4n produce and various other things. Boy Scouts of America. Salem uit. troop Mo. 1, have a log cabin that at tracts attention. , - . The. Oregon state training school for boys has an attractive booth, in which is displayed things made by the states' wards. Pictures of the little fellows t work in school and elsewhere show bapy little fellows, who are being made better boys and who will be bet ter citizens when they leave the in stitution. ; .. . The state industrial school for girls also has a booth of much interest. In it are shown various kinds of goods made by the less than a score of girl wards of the state kept In the Institu tion near here. - The Oregon Normal school has an educational exhibit of much interest. The exhibits cover a wide range, from kindergarten to the higher branches of study. One of the wonders of the old pa vilion Is the exhibit of the state school for the blind. Weaving, sewing of va rious kinds, fancy work and many things It would seem impossible for the blind to accomplish are shown and demonstrate the efficiency of the syB-j tern of education. The state sealer of weights and measures has a booth in the old pa vilion, where he can weigh things that cannot be seen with the naned eye, even "trifles light as air,' it seems. From state University. Practical, varied and Interesting is the exhibit of the University of Ore gon. The exhibit shows what service the university is rendering to the peo ple of the state. Charts and maps out line the work of the correspondence department and list the lectures which are available for towns, schools, granges, churches, commercial clubs and other organizations In the state. - Professor O. F. Stafford, head of the department of chemistry, is at tracting crowds with a demonstration of extraction of nitrogen from the air for fertilizer. Many are viewing the "pure water" exhibit sent down by Professor A. R. Sweetser. Tills ex hibit shows tests of water from Fort land, -Oregon City and Eugene and from various streams and wells. The epitome of Oregon, showing the resources either made from grain or grasses In natural colors, is a highly Instructive section of the fair. At the textile department the dis play surpasses all records this 1 year. It was estimated that twice as much had been placed in the building as on the opening day a year ago. The dairy exhibit is more complete than ever and there is a larger dis play of dairy machinery than ever be fore. The machinery exhibit is the largest In its history, much of the ma chinery Is in operation so that the visitor can get a good Idea of its ef ficiency. The postoffice department boosts its parcel post department with an ex hibit in charge of an employe of tne Salem postoffice. He demonstrates the best method of packing goods for the parcel post to Insure safety. This booth-is especially interesting for vis itors'from the rural districts. Eugenics Gets Attention. The eugenics department has a large list of entries and it is attract ing more interest among the women than many other features of the fair. The poultry department has a long list of entries and attracts many vis itors. It contains every variety of fowl found in Oregon barnyards.' The livestock exhibit is the largest in the history of the Oregon state fair.. Horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, goats and other animals are here in great num bers and demonstrate the progress Oregon is making in diversified farm ing. Great numbers of sleek cattle, their horn polished and coats cur ried and brushed carefully, are com peting for prizes. Even the hog was given a careful bath in preparation for the fair. Soap and water and trushes were used liberally. The display of manufactured goods of Oregon is most complete. The en tire upper floor of the new navilion is occupied with these goods and some of the booths are very attractive. One of the largest booths contains an ex hibit of goods manufactured at an Oregon City woolen mill. Amusement features have not been overlooked and the children's play ground is the Mecca for youngsters. Arrangements have been made so that attendants will supervise the playing and parents can leave their children there while they visit other sections of the fair. A circus, circular railway and many other attractions attract young and old when they are not visiting the ex hibition buildings.

The exhibit in the poultry department was large and the children displayed much interest In the exhibits. The livestock exhibit was not large. Many breeders are getting their herds ready for the state fair at Salem. The fair was a financial success and besides the exhibits aeroplane flights were staged by the management. W. C Crawford flew from Yamhill to Mc Minnville, and made two flights over the city. Carnival attractions and nu merous special entertainments contrib uted to make the pleasurable. "When George E.

"You will need him on the state board to stand between your interests and the legislature." Candida to Ax Compared. The governor compared the three sen atorial candidates Chamberlain, Booth and Hanley. He spoke of Booth'' great timber holding and Hanley vast acreage over in central Oregon. "The Oregonian say Booth ia a suc cessful business man, and for that reason Bhould be elected senator," said the speaker. "Yes, he has made $1,000, 000 out of timber, they say. And that no doubt is true. The only question Is, where did he get itT "So has George Chamberlain made $1,000,000 out of timber lands and school lands. He has just as much brains and ability as Booth, but he was working for the public and he turned bis million into the state treasury. He? was the first governor who ever made, any effort to get laws passed for the ; protection of the common school fund. , Instead of only $6,000,000 in the school fund,, there ought to be $30,000,000 or $40,000,000 in the fund, if the fund had peen protectee. r Unfolding an old poster, used when j Chamberlain ran for the senate be- f fore, the governor read the promises the candidate made then and pointed out the subsequent events which showed that all of them had been kept.
