ties. The second award of $500
w as divided am ong Clackamas,
Columbia, Jackson, Polk and
M orrow counties. The third
award of $300 w as divided
am ong Benton, Yamhill, M al­
heur, Union and Baker counties.
For the fourth award o f $200
there are seven claimants: W al­
low a, W ashington, Sherman,
Josephine, Lincoln, Harney and
Douglas counties.
' This is not as good a showing
as Yamhill should have made
but considering the inactivity o f
the county court and lack o f
general co-operation from over
the county, it is all that any one
could reasonably expect. Every
thing considered, Yamhill county
has been very creditably repre­
sented at the fair, and the after­
math w ill be more than com ­
mensurate with the efforts pnt
forth.
