The Oregon fair i the leading agricultural exposi tion on the Tacific Coaat; that is acknowledged by all other state. SMcial efforta have been put forth by the management to make the coming fair the greatent in the history of the organisation. Extended classifica tion of 1'iveatock, Increased premium and additional convenience lor ex hibitor in all department will aaaure unaurriSiiaed display which should be seen by great crowd of people every day during the week. The progressive farmer and stock grower of the Pacific Northwest have expended considerable time and money during the past year In the betterment of their herd and flocks, and many of them having lignified their intentions to show their best animal at the fair next mouth. Frank A. Welch, ecretary of the fair board, ha received information which indicate that there will be ten or more counties to participate in what is known at the "county ex hibits" conteat for the cash premiums aggregating $1300 divided into eight premium, the first being f.J00, second, 1250, and third, 200, fourth $160, and the remainder $100 each. This exhibit must contain agricultural products, and any other article that will show up the resources of the state. The counties thus far expected to participate are Clatsop, Columbia, Clackamas, Multnomah, Marion, Yamhill, Linn, Lane, Benton, Douglas, r.1 .Tmionhine these beine in the western part of the state; and it is believed that one or two counties of the eastern portion will enter the contest, which would add considerable interest to the great feature, which in the past ha been the admiration of thousands of people. These exhibits will be made in the main pavilion, which is large and commodius and nicely arranged in every respect. Besides the county displays, the Oregon Agricultural College will be represented by specimens of work done bv its students and faculty in the past, the superintendent having sent in notice for increased space in the building. There will also be special farm exhibits, and the horti cultural department is going to be full to overflowing. The racing department will be far better than in the past; and that means a great deal, as the best races in the Pacific Northw est have taken nlace on the Oregon State Fair track. The grand stand has boen remodelled and its capacity increased to nearly double. There will be no liquor establishments permitted on the grounds this year, and pool selling has been made a thing of the past. Numerous improvements about the race course have been made which will lend an attractiveness to the speed contests and will be highly aoDeciated by the spectators which will be numbered by many thousands this year. A high class of harness horses will be at the fair in an effort to pull down the rich purses offered artd between heats there will be some specialties to amuse the crowds. It is the duty of all Oregonians to patronize the fair, as it is an agricul tural exposition in every sense of the word. The sum of $10,000 appropri ated by the legislature for premiums on livestock and agricultural manu factured products, is widely distributed i. . .!! the development of the agricultural reoiirt' of the Uta and upr I'arilir rnat.
