month"; are to be augmented by the
Investment of outside capital and the
erection of large and latest improved
plants. The immense forests Of Ore
gon pine surrounding the city are to
be converted into lumber for the Aus
tralian, Chinese, Japanese, and South
American markets.
The great coal fields within few
miles of the city are to be Immediately
opened, and the product thereof shipp-
ed in every direction.
A dairying region unsurpassed in the
whole world is to be opened up and
afforded an outlet to market.
A harbor, better than that of San
Francisco, and the only one with this
exception on the more than two thous-
and miles of Pacific coast, is to be
supplied with increased dockage and
coaling facilities, and immense grain
elevators will be built to store and load
the wheat of the Columbia basin direct

COUNTY FAIR TIME.

AS the time of the Caledonia county fair
draws near, Sept. 10, II and 10, intend
ing exhibitors are beginning to show
considerable interest. Fortunately, this
year dates have been so arranged that
the various fairs do not conflict, Lyndon
vile and Barton following the weeks
after our fair is over.
Among the interesting departments
this year will be that in which children
compete for the premiums generously
offered by Mr.. Vail The improvements
made in the poultry sheds, by lcngthen-
ing them about 80 feet and widening the
aisIes, will help make the poultry show
better than ever before.
The responsibility for the exhibition in
Floral hall lies largely with the ladies,
who can make it just as fine as they like.
A generous display of work should be
made so that this department will be
even more attractive than others. Mrs.
Vail is superintendent and P. F. Blodg-
ett assistant, in Floral hall, and every.
body should take hand and help make
it good show.
