Exposition, Sept. 22. October and

to delight the stockmen of the north

shows of all farm animals. Horses
and mules will have full sway from

0. Lively, chief of livestock depart
ment, well known to most Oregonians

$175,000.00 for cash prizes besides

Forty-five breed record associations

expenses, making a grand total of
$440,557.00 for livestock participa
tion in the series of shows. Cattle

ing $148,667.00 exclusive of trophies.

00; dogs and cats, $5,500.00.
September, October and November

expected that the crowds will be in
creased over the present splendid av
erage of 70,000 daily.
.anyone to take up farming on a ten
acre tract in Willamette Valley or
i anywhere else. Mr. Sherman spec
ializes in straw berries, cantelopes and
year-round-garden products, with a
lew chickens and minor side lines
thrown in for good measure, and
while the Lebanon man has done al
most phenominally well on ten acres
(or 8 acres until a year ago lasPFeb
urary, when he added two more at
$325.00 an acre), he happens to be
a happy combination of business man
and scientific farmer. He is a man
of method, of abounding energy,
faith In himself, and a determination
that is apparent In every move. And
he has a wife who has always had
flowers on the table perhaps his
greatest asset. Others who lack any
part of the combination that has en
tered into the success of Mr. Sher
man might well hesitate about con
fining themselves to ten acres, even
In the Willamette Valley. The ex
hibit, however, together with Mr.
Sherman's story, tells what one man
has done for himself, shows the pro
lific production of countless varieties
of products that will grow on Wil
lamette Valley soil (of which that at
Lebanon is typical), and offers to oth
ers the encouragement there should
be in the splendid performance of a
man of ordinary intelligence, dead
broke ten years ago, a stranger in a
strange land and in ill health a man
now risen to comparative affluence,
restored to health and to social posi
tion, happy In the possession of in
dependence and a bright outlook for
the future.
Some Steer.
It is not improbable that Oregon
will show here the largest steer in
captivity at the present time. This
is a 3,000 pounder that grew up in
the Klamath country. The animal is
six years old, and is range fed only,
never having been in a stall. George
Watt, the owner, proposes to enter
the big fellow for a prize, but there
is no class for anything beyond three-year-olds.
It is now proposed to
bring the old boy down as a part of
the Oregon exhibit, with headquar
ters in the game pavilion adjoining
the Oregon building. Even a picture
of the animal in the Klamath booth
atttracts considerable attention, and
the real thing on display is certain to
prove a winner.
New Commissioner Here,
O. M. Clark, of Portland, presi
dent of the Oregon Commission, is
now resident at the Oreenn hullritnir.
and with Mrs. Clark is directing
tilings, incidentally, they are repre
senting the state at Exnnsitinn func
tions, several large events having tak
en place during the week just past.
un luesaay tney banquetted at the
Fairmont in honor of the Commis
sioner General of Guatemala. On
Wednesday at the same Dlace the hi?
affair was in honor of Guatemala's
Independence Day. Wednesday af
ternoon at the Oregon building, the
Daughters of the the American Rev
olution were given a reception at
which Mrs. I. L. Patterson, of Salem,
presided, with Mrs. Clark in the re
ception line. This was a brilliant
event attended by a very large num
ber of ladies. The band from the
battleship Oregon furnished music.
On Wednesday the Webber Juvenile
Orchestra, now playing the Pantages
circuit, gave a half hours' concert at
the Oregon building and pleased im
mensely. The party of young people
were guests of the Commission at
luncheon. Mr. Clark received ap
pointment as Governor Withycombe's
special representative at the meetings
of the Woman's Cnneresslnnnl llnlnn
an occasion that brought hundreds of
able women to San Francisco. The
Clarks were guests also at the New
Jersey receDtion on the 17th. Kvnri.
sition society life is somewhat stren
uous, Dut tlie Clarks are equal to the
emergency.
Has Put In Fire Protection.
Heppner Light & Water Co. this
week completed the installing of fire
plugs in the Farmers' Union Ware
house at the depot grounds. This
building was out of reach of any of
tlie hydrants, so separate connection
has been made with the mains and
plugs installed in both ends of the
big building. Sufficient hose has
been provided and placed in conven
ient reach so that in case of fire at
any point inside or outside of the
building it can be readily covered.
This Is a good move and the ware
house people are to be congratulated
for taking this precaution to protect
their own property as well as that for
which they stand responsible to their
customers.
Apple Tree With Two Crops.
On the old Franklin place, now oc
cupied by Mrs. Mcintosh, and which
joins town on the east, are two freak
apple trees. Early in the season,
and like all good apple trees should
do, they bloomed. Then, the fruit
crop began to set on and after the ap
ples had reached a good size the tree
became white with bloom and now
there are two crops of apples hanging
on the tree. The first crop is very
large and just about mature, while
the second one is about half grown.
There is no accounting for the freak
situation except possibly that the
place is so near the cemetery that it
might be a plain case of spooks, and
if it is, we would advise Mrs. Mcin
tosh to examine the apples carefully
an"d see if they are not full of hard
cider. If they are it is the work of
ghosts, probably getting ready for the
long dry spell that will start January
1, 1916. Blue Bountain Eagle, Can
yon City.
An Interesting Exhibit.
One of the really Interesting and
effective exhibits offered by the state
of Oregon is that ten-acre showing of
F. M. Sherman of Lebanon, just now
rebuilt with fresh products. This is
located in the Palace of Agriculture,
occupying 25x50 feet, and is inspect
ed by hundreds of visitors each week.
This exhibit shows 80 varieties of po
tatoes, 38 of wheat, 23 of barley, 36
of oats, 5 kinds of clover, and all
kinds of grasses, plus the bamboo.
There are dried and canned fruits,
fresh and canned vegetables, several
varieties of corn, as well as innum
erable varieties of seeds, also China
pheasants. There are many pictures
showing the products growing on the
Lebanon farm, and topping the exhib
it is a fine specimen of the Barred
Rock hen, by which Mr. Sherman
swears. New products Just placed
show oats almost eight feet high, and
vetch with a 25-foot spread, common
vetch eight feet in length. Soudan
grass, 72 days from seed, measures
6 feet, and the exhibitor says that
neighboring farmers, Clem Brothers,
are showing Soudan grass nine feet
in height. He believes this grass, in
troduced into the United States from
Egypt about four years ago, Is going
to prove a very superior hay grass
for the Willamette Valley. Besides
all of this, the exhibit shows many
varieties of more or less important
products and the statement is that
"Ideal Gardens Ranch," the some
what ambitious name of Mr. Sher
man's Willamette Valley farm, will
grow this year more than 500 var
ieties of all kinds of produce. It is
not intended to convey the idea that
these 500 varieties are grown by him
for commercial purpose or that Mr.
Sherman specializes in any conslder
abe number of them. Neither is it
the purpose of the exhibit to Induce
Produces Good Crop of Tomatoes.
Jake Wattenburger matured a fine
crop of tomatoes on his place in East
Heppner this season and has gath
ered 20 bushels or more of good ripe
ones from a little patch less than 30
feet square. He considers this an ex
tra good season for tomatoes and
they have ripened without difficulty.
Mr. Wattenburger has made a nice
home out of his place nnd has an
abundance of fruit of all kinds grow
ing there. To see the place now one
would not recognize that his ground
was made since the flood of 1903 and
had to be built up from what was at
that time a bed of bare rocks. Mr.
Wattenburger's enterprise has pro
duced him a nice home and he is Just
ly proud of it.
