TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, AUGUST 24 1916.
THE FAIR OPENS.
Day Brought out a Big
Crowd.
The Tillamook County Fair opened
on Tuesday, the weather being ideal
and considerable interest was taken
in the opening proceedings by the
business men of this city, who gave
the fair a real live boost and com
mendable send off, which brought
considerable money into the Fair’s
treasury. This was brought about by
the activity of the Tillamook Com
mercial Club and the business men.
The fair this year is well up to the
average of other fairs, the lateness of
the season and variable weather the
past few months having much to do
with the smaller display of agricul
tural products and floral displays.
Tillamook
Business Men’s Paradtf.
One hundred business men took
part in the parade on Tuesday, and as
this was the first time that they had
taken part in a parade of that char
acter it proved highly successful as
well as attractive. The business men
were dressed in white pants, white
shirts and white hats. Preceding the
procession was the band and a small
delegation from the G. A. R. and W.
R. C„ and following the two lines of
business' men the city council occu
pied an auto and Governor Withy
combe, Mayor Broahcad and City
Attorney H. T. Boots rode in another
auto.
There was only one decorated car,
that of the Grand Leader.
One attractive feature was a num
ber of young girls dressed in yellow
and carrying milk pails and milk
stools. They drew what was supposed
to be a large Tillamook cheese, one
third cut. This was on two wheels, and
the young milk maids came in for a
good deal of applause on the line of
march and at the fair grounds.
The Governor SPeaks.
At the meeting in the afternoon,
Fred C. Baker welcomed the. people
to the fair and H. T. Botts represent
ed the Mayor and city. After making
a few remarks he introduced Gover
nor Withycombe.
Governor Withycombe opened bis
address by expressing bis very, very
great pleasure in coming back to this
great dairy country, not being an en
tire stranger here, and ever since his
first trip lias not lost faith in the
future before us. The Governor par
ticular emphasis on the necessity of
the improvement of the home, the
farm home particularly, the home of
all homes, as he expressed it; some
thing to keep the boys and girls at
home . ml be with them always a
pleasant memory. The Governor com
mented favorably on the vast contrast
between our first fairs held here and
our present undertaking. He com
mented on his being indirectly the
cause, not entirely but to some extent
of the consolidation of the dairymen
in this community, consequent::! to
which w; s the standardization and in
creased price obtained for our com
modities. When the Governor first
came here, over the old Wilson route,
he was struck at once with the sight
of cows grazing on the green fields
when over on the other side of the
divide everything was desolate. The
Governor praised in strong terms the
work of the ear’y pioneers, the ones
who laid the way for us, which was
greeted with much applause, lie ex
pressed his earnest hope ami desire
that we should work together and
soon See the time when each acre
would produce enough to feed a cow
and that cow would bring a return of
$100 per year, which could best be
realized by an intelligent study of
more careful feeding, silage, etc. The
Governor spoke very favorable of
silage. Th'- Governor earnestly re
quested us to overcome our local
differences and work together, for
there should be no friction in our
community, it being to the best in
terest of everybody to pull together.
Loyalty to our county by preparing
ourselves to
compete successfully
i
with the foreign invasion of labor
after the present European conflict
was strongly laid before the audience.

Boosters’ Meeting.
At the evening meeting H. I' Botts,
Rev. Van Winkle, and D. 1. Slirodc
were the local '.peakers and W. S.
Raker, of Portland, spoke
...__
on the
community spirit and preparedness in
local matters, emphasizing the fact
the entire community was made up
of one family and there should be
entire co-operation between all ser
fions of fi e county. Mr. Raker dwelt
principally on the importance of the

Exhibits by Districts Schools.
One of the most pleasing features
of the fair is the exhibits by the dis
trict schools, and although there are
a large number of exhibits, every
school district in the county should
take part in this laudable part of the
county fair, there are some very
pretty school exhibits, gotten togeth
er in fine artistic taste. Tillamook,
Garibaldi, Bay City and Fairview are
certainly deserving of a great deal of
credit.

H/TLESS BASEBALL
Remarkable Record That Waa Mad*
by Cy Young tn 1904.
The proud record for pitching con
secutlve innings of bitless baseball is
held by no less a personage than th?
Hon. Denton Tecumseh Young of
blessed baseball memory. Mr. Young,
better known as “Cy," Is the bolder of
several records In unusual feats In the
pitching line.
It was hack In April, 1904, that
Young proceeded to shatter all figure?
In this line, and before he got through
he had created a new record In hurling
bitless ball and one which stands to
day clean cut and without a spot or
blemish and without a doubt the great
est piece of pitching the game ever
witnessed.
On April 30 against the Washington
team Young took Winter’s place in the
third inning, no one out, and pitched
out the game, retiring the next twenty-
one batsmen In order. Young’s next
game took place May 5 against the
Athletics. Cy pitched the best game
of bls long nnd honorable career that
day and retired twenty-seven of those
famous swatsmen of Connie Mack in
a row. In a game against Detroit on
May 11 Denton T. pitched his famous
fifteen Inning 1 to 0 game against the
Tigers, and in the first seven innings
Young set them down without a base
hit
This would give Cy twenty-three
innings of hitless ball, or. in other
words, as far as the records show, six
ty-elglit batsmen stepped to the plate
and were retired in succession. In that
same period the big Ohioan pitched
forty-eight consecutive innings where
in ills opponents failed to get a run
across the plate. After his groat no
hit-no run game against the Athletics
he pitched fifteen innings of runless
ball, ns mentioned, against the Tigers
with Ed Killian opposing him. It was
a battle royal, and the clever Killian
met defeat by a score of 1 to 0.—New
York Sun.
Nehalem Wins Dahlia Prize
Nehalem won the first prize for the
best display of dahlias and Tillamook
second prize.
Wednesday was another big day at
the lair, Hie crowd being probably a
little larger than the previous day,
while the attendance at the evening
meeting drew such a large crowd
hundreds were unable to get into the
building.

The cheese scoring contest at the
