EDITORIAL
A SUCCESSFUL EVENT
The annual Klamath county Fuir Uodeo and
Labor Day celcbriition closed last night, and goes
on record as one of the most successful events ever
held in Southern Oregon ,
Tho occasion is 'now well set in a glittering setting
which means it is as much of an annual event as
Fourth of July or Christmas. And why shouldn't
it be?
, Everyone who attended any of the three days
went away delighted. All exhibitors faced keener
competition than ever before, which gave fcest and
interest to tho pavilion." The stock stables were filled
with better livestock, and there was far greater in
terest in every class of livestock exhibited.
And when it came to the race course and Ilodeo,
the show stands without a rival in Southern Oregon.
Only one exhibition in the entire country comes in its
class, and that is the celebrated Pendleton roundup.
Next year, with the. men who have now volun-
tcered to help, the Pendleton show must look well
to its laurels, for Klamath has everything Pendleton
has to draw, from in making such a show and she
has California to draw from.
The riding this year could not be surpassed. ' The
roping was weak, but every other feature was up
to a high standard. .
It was a tribute to the picturesqueness of the oc
casion yesterday afternoon when Frank Adams, aged
72, mounted a saddle horse and took part in the last
cvenU. Frank Adams Tas riding a horse in Klam
ath county in 1872; he has been at it ever since, and
be it said without fear of contradiction that no man
in the West sits a horse more gracefully today than
does Frank Adams. The grandstand cheered him
to the echo when he entered the ring, and in that

Some of these .fields failing to

are from good certified seed but

"The large sumher of fields

"There has been some misrep
