Don't let the alarmist, the pessi mist or the joy-killer lead you to be Meve that "the county fair has seen its day," r.s they contend. They be gan predicting that quite a few years ago when the street carnival was nt the height of its popularity. But today the county fair is still among the cherished forms of out door entertainment while the carni val has, to a great extent, fallen into disrepute. There will always be farm and garden products and there will el ways be people anxious to view ex- whero is the man who isn't always willing to drop his work for a chance to see the aristocracy of tho live stock world on display? And there is that other great fea trc of the county fair not to be over- ! looked its social side; the chance to meet old friends and to make new ones, the opportunity to talk over old times,, to swap suggestions and ex change ideas. The county fair of fers something in this line that the cir cus and the street carnival can never hope to offer and that ac counts for its strong popularity; that explains why it is the one out door amusement and edcational in stitution holding a place close to the heart of millions of citiiens. The county fair may fail in a few com mnities for lack of support, but as it does it comes into stronger and better support in others. The Southern Wasco county man who is living when the gates are closed for ever on the last county fair is going to live to be a mighty old man. 8 m l Wf Reduction We wonder how large our cemeter ies would be if the people had to wait as long for the doctor as tho doctor has to wait for some of his bills.

Or idea of an ideal husband is one who tempers down his appetite in hot weather so his wife won't have to swelter in the kitchen cooking his meals. x ' Nothing makes a man madder," says Joe Kramer, "than for a friend to go and get married and expect a wedding present just when the old family flivver needs a new set of tires."

Wilhelm, whom eIio had not seen in 10 years. That it proves to farm properly has been proven by D. L. Ruther ford of Criterion. Last year he plowed deeply a rather poor field, then harrowed often, especially after each rain. This year the field produced 14 sacks of No. 1 wheat as comared with from five to seven sacks under ordinary conditions, Monday 950 sacks of wheat were received at the Hunts Ferry ware house, Tuesday and Wednesday 1025 and 1142" sacks respectively, with a corresponding increase for today.
