The event will be held on the exposition grounds from September 27th to October 9th in clusive. A widespread interest has been created among breeders and deal ers throughout the entire United States and Canada, and several for eign associations are negotiating with the intention of sending a nnmber of prize winners across the ocean. The Canadian Government ha3 appropriated $1,500 for trans portation expenses, and this will be utilized by the Cattle Breeders Association of Manitoba in sending several car loads of stock to Seattle. The value of live stock exhibits on the Pacific Coast lias been thorough ly demonstrated by the success following the live stock show in Portland in 1905, and since that time, the western sales of two stock associations in the east have total led over $1,000.000. The weet and Northwest are to day considered as the most promis ing fields for high class stock development, and this fact has been generally recognised by breeders. The exposition appropriation of prize money and premiums is liberal, and this has been in creased by offerings of individual breeders and dealers to the extent of $10,000. The official catalogue of the Live Stock Show will be ready for dis tribution early in May, and this will include all neces sary information regarding the entries, classification and awards. Constructions work on sheds, stalls, paddocks and yards will be com pleted long before the opening exhibit. These will be open to exhibitors ten days before the show opens. In the special features introduced into the Live Stock Show, none but new departures will be followed. It is the intention of the manage ment to make this department as valuable as can be done, and in doing this, expense and work have been a secondary consideration. Noted ludían W om an Dies.
