just closed there the greatest land '
show ever held, attended hy more peo- j

exposition, during tho two weeks
250,000 people visiting it. Lectures
went given on Oregon and Washington
by railroad men trom hero. .
Among the things seen at this great
show were some splendid displays of
apples from Oregon. They consisted
of a general Oregon exhibit made upof
a few boxes from different parts of the
state, as a whole making a big showing,
and a separate kogue River display '
that was also great. In the general
display there were two or three boxts
of poor fruit marked Albany. But it
was not Albany fruit at all. Some
apples were sent from this city, but
the committee there was ashamed of
them und borrowed some fiom the Cove '
display, a box or two, and marked then)
Albany. They were the poorest apples
the Cove nun had, he of course keeping
the best for tho fine Cove section. If
