Five thousand bulletins are being distributed by Superintendent Church ill to the school superintendents and teachers of Oregon, giving full details for organizing clubs for the improve ment of Bchool exhibits at fairs. These bulletins were prepared in co operation with the agricultural col lege, after a careful examination of all the plans of the Eastern and Southern States which have been successful in carrying on this work. Fifty, thousand are also being dis tributed to the school children of the state, giving the standard of each article exhibited, such as bread, can ned fruit and vegetables. These bul letins will also contain full directions to the children as to how to secure the best results. As soon as 'the bulletins are distrib uted, Superintendent Churchill ex pects to send his two field woikers in all pats of the state, organizing the boys' and girls '.clubs. In this work he will receive assitanee also of the extension departments of the three state schools. Through these clubs Superintendent Churchill ex pects to raise the standard of all of the articles which have been ex hi In ted by the children. Many prizes will be given at the State Fair, but it is' expected that there will be an increased interest on accouiit'of the work done by the industrial clubs. It is almost certain now that 10 capital prises can be given to the school chil dren at the State Fair, consisting of tnp to the Panama Exposition with all expenses paid. While this is an expensive prize, yet it will be pure ly educational and will do a great deal towards emphasizing the educa tional side of the industrial fsii work, it is said.
