indications now are that the com
ing meeting of the Morrow County
Fair will be perhaps the most suc
cessful one in the history of the as
sociation, and this prediction can he
made without casting any reflection
on oast management.
There is an abundance of fine
grain in the county this year from
which to select a splendid exhibit and
there is ahso present promise of an
exceptionally fine stock exhibit.
Another feature What will be some
thing of an inovation and one which
should enlist the attention of every
fanner in fhe county as well as of
every citizen whose prosperity de
pends largely on the prosperity of
the fanning Industry, is the Chau
tauqua feature which will occupy
two hours every afternoon. The
speakers for this attraction will be
men who are known experts on the
questions connected with modern
farming and stock growing methods
and marketing and should prove a
crowd-getter at every sesion. Good
music and other entertainments are
also promised by fhe management.
The tractor show will also prove of
interest to the many farmers who are
now considering the feasibility of
putting old Dobbin in the discard
and adopting the tractor method of
plowing, planting and hauling and
should prove of much value.
Hull games, hose tournament and
airplane flights are also contem
plated as entertainment features and
from present indications there will
be sol el'.i'ng of interest to all visit
ors not a dull moment day or

to the effect that a definite plan is
taking shape in Washington to bring
Senator Chamberlain forward for the
democratic nomination for president
is of interest.
While the objection that Oregon is
too small a state and too far west to
furnish a successful candidate for
the presidency is not without some
weight the fact remains that Senator
Chamberlain is perhaps the strongest
man in the democratic party at this
time. His fight for preparednerr be
fore we entered the war, while un
popular among the masses then pr ov
ed to be the right idea and received
almost unanimous endorsement of
the people when they realized that
we were really at war and just what
war meant and his later stand for a
square deaf for the soldiers endeared
him to every red blooded American
and made him the Idol of every
doughboy and his relatvies and
friends.
Any man nominated by the demo
crats must get a lot of republican
votes to be elected and Mr. Chamber

Other boys tell the same story In

sighed one young lad. "It was my

It isn't enough to give the boy
nine months schooling; give him a
chance at the farm businesss even if
he doesn't want it its up to dad to
create and fill the want.

"Brown & Sons."
