Mr. Webnor is an expert horticulturalist p.nd raines none but tlie best of any kiud ol fruit or vegetable. His tomatoes are usually fine. The work on Mill street is pro gressing aud if tho present tine weather continues tho work will s on bo in tdiapc. There is more work on that utreet. t;an any of the others. Weber street is waiting for the coating of gravel, and Per kins Avenue has received a por tion of tbe gravel roadbed. The gravel bed iu front of Frank Jor dan's placo which was uncovered in tho grading has furnished consid erable gravel for the road. Wall street is fast assuming roudlike ap pearance. ' Homo of tho roads have net specified what day this will be good, but it is certain it will enable the visitors to reach the tair on the first day and to give them ample time to see everything there ia to be seen at this Spokane exposition and to attend all the meetings of the con vention. The Northern Pacific will sell next Monday a one fare rate ticket to Spokane from all points in Wash ington, Oregon, Idaho and Moli lalia; and from points so remote that a person cannot reach Spokane in time for the convention if he Htarls Monday, this road will sell tickets Sunday, Sept. 2.3. Other roads arc expected to do the same. The Northern pucific makes it pos sible for the person coming to Spo kane on this ticket to aemain two weeks. No convention ever h'dd in the Pacific northwest, not even ex cepting the very important meet ing of the Irrigation Congress, re-' cently iu session at Boise, is of J greater valuf than the convention I which is to bo held in Spokane two I days next week. The shrewdest! business men of this part of the Pa- I cih'c Northwest arc lanrdog the ; program ami propose a movement which will advertise th? four states in ik way which will rival the great est advertising fichemes which the Canadian government and the Ca nadian Paciiir; railway have been using to draw people of tho United States into the Albetta country. Already many delegates are prom ised for the convention, assurincr the important meeting desired. Tho committees which are plan ning the meeting fijht shy of every thing which is (or individual locali ties as against tho entire northwest. There is ho much of vast importance upon which al! communities in the four states can unite, that the con vention will find that it will have all it can do to plan this work. Among the questions which have been suggested for discussion are the placing of lecturers in the east, advertising tho Pacific northwest; opening of rivers and harbors; the i establishment of a strong north west press bureau; securing by united action national conventions for all the cities of the northwest, which are large enough to enter tain them; tho placing of an immi gration agent in Europe; securing of an appropriation by the legisla ture of each of the four states for the advertising of that state; the co-operation of tho United States government for forest protection, including the patrol of f 01 eats by United States cavalry troops, and the urging of leading cities to hold annual expositions and fairs. It is important that every com meicial body send delegates to this convention and notify It. C. Rohra bacher, secretary at Spokane, of the name of the delegates, as fast as they are chosen. Railroad officials ore not only yiviug unusual rates for the benefit of this convention, but many of the officials are writ ing perssual letters, endorsing the importanco of tho movement and promising to be present.

O? Wall of Minneapolis, are con sidered the authorities of tho United States on dairy chemistry. Mr. Stiller is justly elated over his score and siys that had his butter been a couple of days older instead of being hardly a day old his score would have been almost perfect.

Mr. Stiller ia not informed just what place he took, but his score is high. He is now making preparations for enlarging his plant to a little more than double its present caoi. city, ho as to be ready for th spring trade.

The Lyceum Lecture Bureau course C3mmence3 Oct. 5th. Don't fail to see some member of the Commercial Club and get a tseason ticket. The lectures, coacerts, all are high class, and will draw great crowds. General Trephoff died a natural death it is supposed, but undoubt edly the great strain he has lived under for years greatly hastened the stern generals heart. The czar has lost one of his strongest sup ports, and the Russian revolution. j iats are happy. G. W. Kerr came near losing a tine horse Monday owing to a pecu liar accident. The horse stepped on a pieca of ix3 scantling which flew up and penetrated between the harm 9 inches deep. Jos Baker dressed the wound and the horse will probably recover all right. llh 111 ri' I Iff 4 Ml s Ladies! Come in and look at our furs?
