THE COUNTY FAIR.
The farmers of Josephine county
are now getting' exhibits ready for
display at the coming fair, which is
to be held on the 19th. 20th and Slat
of the month. These dates are just
ahead of the state fair, aud the best
of the exhibits will be sent to Salem
to compete with the products of other
portions of Oregon. Every farmer
has something that will make a cre
ditable showing at the fair. How
often do we hear the remark at the
county fair that "I could have beaten
that all hollow," or words of like
effect. That bis pumpkin may be a
prise winner if you will only bring

bratlon. In Utah the full value of
the industry is appreciated. The in
fluence of the sugar beet upon the
commercial life of a district has been
proved, and its potency in producing
a condition of prosperity can not be
gainsaid.

be in a position for the celebration of

produce or your livestock Is deficient.
That Is the value of the county fair.
Rivalry will be an Incentive for effort,
and if you fail to get the blue ribbon
this year, it may be the means of
making a winner of you next year.
The value is not In the thing you win

return next year, and has practically

chase of property having a frontage
upon the Rogue as a site for a fishing
lodge where he would spend his sum
mers with his family and friends.
Saturday he inspected a number of
sites, and with local contractors made
preliminary arrangements for the
building of the lodge from plans
which he detailed. Today the party
will leave for Crater lake, and will
then proceed northward to Seattle
and Victoria, B. C, returning later
to duty In Mexico. But next year he
will come bock, and he leaves his
word that his "friends are coming
also."
RETURNING
FROM
MEXICAN
BORDER
Geo. 1 Putnam, private secretary
to Governor WUhyeonuue, accom
panied by Karl Hinges, statistician
and accountant of the state, arrived
In the city Friday evening, coming by
auto from the Mexican hordor, where
they have been serving with the
Third Oregon Infantry, When the
regiment was ordered back to the
state, Messrs. Putnam and Hinges
concluded to tnake the trip by auto,
and started for the north oa the 1st
Inst. They have had no serious ear
trouble, though on their stay In this
city It was necessary to put the ma
chine In the hospital for a time to
get It In the proper disposition to
complete the trip. The gentlemen
made good use of their stay In this
city by calling upon frlendsi and re
ceiving felicitations upon escaping
Mexican bullets, scorpions and dusky
senorltna. Both will return to their
official duties at the state capital
after havltiK ben relieved of khaki
uniforms and accoutrements at Camp
Wlthycombe.
