Although the 192 1 Northwest Hay and Grain Show at Pendleton was considered to be very successful, and a wonderful start toward a real insti tution, word has been received by our County Agent, Mr. C. C. Calkins, to the effect that the directors at a re- ent meeting drew up tentative plans for a more extensive and attractive show for 1922. While this vear's show was all that could be desired as far as it went, little effort was made to incorporate features which attract the crowd. Although the directors want to maintain the show on a high plane as an educational institution, they believe that some improvement can be made which will make it more popular. These improvements are: First A change in the location for the show. Next year the Grain Show will be held in the heart of town, just off Main street. At Round-Up time. whatever attracts attention must be placed in direct line of travel of the crowd. Second The addition of manufac tured products of hay and grain. All the mills, manufacturers of break fast foods and other products of grain will be invited to exhibit and special efforts will be put forth to se- A hoarded dollar is a slacker dollar.

The 1921 show was a wonderful success in all respects except attend ance; about three thousand people saw the show during the week. The crowd was quite representative of the Northwest. Many people from the Middle West also attended. In fact, the attendance of people from the , outside was very good. ! The show was housed in a building j 75 by 200 feet, the ends and sides of j which were constructed of 65 tons of j baled alfalfa, three cars of which were purchased from the Oregon j Washington Hay Growers Associa tion and one car from C. S. Mc- Naught of Hermiston. On a tem porary frame work, sixteen thousand square feet of canvas was used for a roof. The interior was well lighted with electric lights day and night. The 300 competitive grain exhibits were shown in bushel boxes placed on an incline in five long isles. In one end of the building a long open space was reserved for lectures, dem onstrations and band concerts, and around this auditorium were shown the exhibits of experiment stations. Superintendent D. E. Stephens and Superintendent H. K. Dean were in attendance throughout the show an swering questions regarding, the ex hibits. The Federal Grain Surer- vision office utilized 42 linear feet of space to good advantage. While the number of competitive baled hay ex hibits was not great, the quality of the prize winning bales was excel lent. Exhibits were made from Montana, Idaho, Washington, and from Uma- THE ONLY VvTcr" TO SPELL LUCK IS WITH A P IN FRONT OP IT COPYRIGHT IB3I PUB utO9IF.R StRV CO.

They have beautiful conformation, style and quality in every line, and would stand hlsh In any dairy show in the world. One of these animals is the junior Holstein bull calf shown at the Pacific International lant year. He came from Hollywood Farm, Hollywood, Wash ington, and won high honors. The other is a Jersey heifer calf from Iron Mine farm at Oswego, Oregon, also on show at the I'aeiflc International. The quality of dairy animals of all breeds on the Pacific Coast Is a lource of perpetual mrprise.to the dairy breeders of other sections. Without losing type, they have size and constitution, which the dairyman loves, and which any animal must have to endure. The dairy Industry of the Pacific Coast has grown steadily since Its In ception. This Is partly on account of the favorable climate and wealth of feed produced here. The possibilities for increasing the output of dairy products are almost limitless. There are markets both at home and abroad for many times the amount of cheese and butter now made. The difficulty has been largely due to the unprofitable cows. High quality of animals will do away with this. There Is no place east or west, norlh or south, where one interested la dairy cattle can find so many In one place and select such quality as at the Pacific International at North Portland, Nov 5-12. SMILE AWHILE Consolation. The long suffering family man gazed thoughtfully at his wife's new ultra-modern skirt. "Well, what do you think of it?" she inquired. "At least," he replied, "we won't have to have it cut down when our daughter is old enough to go to school." The Darhy and Joan. A Youngstown man was an enthu siastic spectator at the Kentucky Derby. Having little knowledge of the sport and desirous of placing a smalt bet just for the excitement of the thing, he looked over the list of contenders until his eyes rested on "Behave Yourself." The Youngstown man, as the news reports have since told the world, was among those who "cleaned up," because Behave Yourself was the ! fSJX Poem lljUncle John T " ' -- m w.iisj m m m m -m.rn , m m m mm "PARTLY CLOUDY" I fashioned a rhyme of the sweet scented thyme, an' the bank where it verdantly growed; I sang of the hea ther, regardless of weather, an' while I was singin' it snowed!

"Have you a speed limit here?' cautiously asked a tourist who was driving a car of suspicious vintage, as he entered a burg in Kansas. "Yep," drawled the constable, cast ing one look at the machine. "But don't worry, mister, you'll never be able to make it. Carry On. He: "If I should kiss you, would you scream? She: "Yes, but please don't mind that." Circumstantial Evidence. The Bingville board of selectmen had held many sessions and finally formulated a set of auto laws that was the pride of the county. So the constable felt no worriment when he stopped a motorist. "Ye're pinched for violatin' the auto laws," he pronounced. "Which one?" inquired the trav eler. "Durned.if I know, but ye certain ly hain't come all the way down Main Street without bustin' one of them." Alibi. Teacher: "Why are you so late to school this morning?" Pupil: "I think I must have over washed myself." Nothing Overlooked. A salesman sold a bill of goods to a merchant in a small town. They were returned as not satisfactory. The wholesale house undertook to collect anyway and drew a sight draft on thet bank at the customer's town. The bank returned the draft unpaid. Then the house wrote to the village postmaster and asked if the merchant was good for the amount of the bill.' The letter was returned O.K.'d at the bottom. Next the postmaster was asked to put the bill in the hands of a local lawyer for collection. The answer received by the wholesalers ran as follows: "The undersigned is the merchant on whom you tried to palm off your worthless junk. The undersigned is also president of the bank that re turned your draft. The undersigned is the postmaster to whom you wrote and also the lawyer whom you tried to get to collect your bill. And if the undersigned were not also the pastor of the local church, the undersigned would tell you to go straight to the devil. He Got the Idea. "I taught school among my own oeople in the Tennessee mountains for several years after I graduated from college," a Southern lecturer says, as reported by a subscriber "Funny things happened. Hearing a boy say 'I ain't gwine thar,' I said to him, That t no way to talk. Listen: I am not going there; you are not go ing there; he is not going there; she is not going there; we are not going there; they are not going there. Do you get the iedca?'

"Don't you know that it has been against the law for years to put up a roller towel in this state?"

Little Ethel, who was shopping with her aunt, listened while the gruff but intelligent clerk remonstra ted: "Madam, I am sure you wll not need so much material. You will find five yards quite ample." As soon as they had left the shop Ethel exclaimed indignantly: "Auntie, I didn't like that man. not one bit. Whv, he talked to vou iust like he was your husband!" Youngs town telegram.
