An exposition is a collection of
ehowg, more or less related by nature.
The Paclti? International Live Stock
Exposition, heM at Portland, Or.,
Nov. 3-10, has drawn under Us ample
wings a dozen of. them, and there is
interest for everybody in some of
them.
It hai a beef cattle show of great
size.
Its dairy cattle show is Becond to
none anywhere In numbers and qual
ity. The sheep and goat show is regard
ed by experts as on a par with any
like show in America.
The hog show has always been ex
cellent, and this "year will be bigger
than ever.
The draft horse show is representa
tive, with five breeds of heavy horses
and jacks.
The Western Winter poultry and
rabbit show attracts thousands of in
terested spectators.
The Western dairy products show
Is the least spectacular and one of
the most important.
The boys' and girls' clubs make a
show that is the outcome of work des
tined to make this country a better
place to live in. Don't miss seeing the
work they have done.
The Land Products show, with itn
fruits and vegetables, grains and
grasses, county and other exhibits, b
one of the splendid feature of the
Exposition
The latest show to como to the Pa
cific Internclinnal is the fino North
wrat Grain and Hay show, hitherto
held In rendition. Tnii is idling to
bo a 1923 feature.
The Industrial Exhibits depa-ttnfnt
affords a show that for boauty and
value would be hard to surpass. Tiiis
great department is filled with fairy
like booths, showing costly furs and
other raiment, beautiful furniture,
every convenience a housewife needs,
machinery of every sort, to save labor
and Increase profits. Everything has
its demonstration for the public. The
sense of sight and the souse of smell
are both appealed to, for the flour
and other food product companies
are doing their best to how the
merits of their goods.
The Night Horse show 1 ons of the
four great horse show In the United
States. It Is brilliant, exciting and
delightful. Horses ar coming from
the Eastern states thl year to show
their paces in the arena and struggle
for the big prizes offered.
One kind of a show isn't at the Pa
cific International, and never will be
the gambling concession and other
questionable amusement that rob
children and sometimes grown people
and leave nothing but a bad taate.
The Exposition doe not need that
kind of shows.
