Tho sheep pens are north of tho cnttlo stables, and tho exhibit is .a magnlflcont one, though mostly con fined to Cottswolds, that being np- pareuts, the breed best adapted to conditions in tho Willamette valley In one pen a big ewe was lying in ttie straw, and at first glance she looked J llko a forty-pound wool matteress, rlpped up the back, and the con tents pulled out on each side. She seemed somewhat uncomfortable, and no doubt would have appreciated a shirt-waist more of the peok-a-boo order. Her clothes had not been to tho laundry, but In tho next pen were a pair of youngsters with their fleeces as clean as a compnny hand kerchief and they looked as pretty and "pert" as school girls. There were a few pens of Rainboulllets ithls Bpelled In tho fonetik system) ' and Bomo others whoso ancestory is unknown to the writer, whose knowledge of shep is confined to the flavor after It is dead and Place in the row of pens they sort of graded off until there was a pen full of coats, but the fair visitors, or perhaps I should say, the visitor at the fair will have to decide where tho wool quit and thfl butter com menced.

You see, he was from ' Missouri and he was "shown." With such a showing it is difficult to understand why Oregon Is importing hams, bacons and lard from Chicago. Thero were porkers of all kinds and sizes, and certainly they looked thrifty and showed signs of having had ah easy living, and fully justified the expression, "Money makers," and filled the Irishman's .description, as being "The gentlemen who paid the rent."

Rrt'ciUiiK Stock. Desldes tho racers, thero is somo of the best sires ever shown here. Oregon has of lato years awakened to the profit of raising not only good horseflj lmt the best horses. No money has been sparred In getting the purest blooded Blres that could be purchnBedi and Oregon boasts gomo thQ h)ghest prjce(i ones ever Imported. Thero aro some magnifi cent brood mares, and with them sturdy colts perfect of, build, and full of promise. Tho result is visible ln the splondld class of horses which the Willamette valley now boasts, and this stock Is being rapidly brought to perfection. The Tent City. ,lt would bo unfair to speak of tho fnir without mentioning "lozier- vllle," a city of tents nicely laid out;mch attention d prC8lded over by Albert himself, The trees, both in the canvas town and on the' grounds have been nicely trimmed, and look as neat and clean as though tho Bayno committee had been overlooking them. In the ravillon. In tho life of the Oregon state fair, which Is almost as old as the commonwealth, tho -main pavilion has never been so attractive as this year. The cornices and large pieces of staff statuary brought from the Lewis and Clark exposition gives the Interior a s61ldlty it did not possess and the decorations this year excel .m-ii.in i.cfnro attemnted.

Some of the lending Arms of tho stato have splendid exhlbltB and every Inch of available Bpace Is occpied. Duren and Hamilton aro on this floor and Fuller and Douglas and "Tho Spa" have good exhibits. The Yokohama Tea company Is well represented and In .music houses, George C.

Three individual farm exhibits are in tho pavilion and nro attracting In spite of assurances that every thing would bo complete this morn ing, a small army of men and worn en aro at work and it will bo Tues day morning before tho ontlre fair Is absolutely complete. Among tho good oxhlblts in the main building are the barnesa dis plays of E. L. Lambert and the taxe dermy exhibit of W. H. Edwards and tho big show of the Portland Flour ing mills. The mining display is not credit able. It seems to be what is left of the southern Oregon exhibit at the Lewis and Clark fair and better ore than somo of it can be picked up on the dump heap in several Oregon .counties. The absence of mining ex- hlblts from Baker, Grant and Mai. Inter counties has attracted com- Intent, It seems unfortunate that those counties did not send mineral displays. The inside of the pavilion Sunday presented one of the busiest scenes imaginable. Work was being done on every exhibit arid tho decorators worked all night Sunday to complete Uie decorations on tho pavilion. The result was well worth tho offort as the building this morning is very attractive and Is much admired. The Races Begin. The best and lnrgest collection of race horses that was over gathered on a track In the Pacific northwest are here and the races will begin this afternoon shortly after 1 o'clock The races today are: 2:25 pace, $1000; 2 year old trot, ?400; run ning, half mile, $150; running, one mile, $200. A balloon ascension will take plnce this afternoon Just nt the conclusion of the races between tho grand stand and tho pavilion. This performance will be on the program every day during the fair.
