OREGON'S BIG TREE.
Its Lumber Will be Used in the
Worlds Fair Building.

st. Louis, Aug 2S.-The largest fir
tree in the world will supply portion
of the lumber for the construction of
Oregon's state building at the worlds
fair at st. Louis.
The Oregon building will occupy a
site Immediately north of the New
York state building The state legis-
lature has made an appropriation of
$4,000 for the fair but much greater
sum will be available. Five hundred
thousand dollars have been ap-
propriated by Oregon for the Lewis
and Clark exposition, to be held in
Portland, in 1905. The same COM
missioners will handle the exhibits for
both fairs. Many valuable exhibits
prepared for the Portland exposition
will be first displayed at the worlds
fair at st. Louis.
In fish and forestry, Oregun's ex-
hibit will be especially rich. The
Columbia river salmon fisheries. the
richest in the world, will furnish an
unrivalled exhibit. The processes CT
catching the salmon, and how they are
handled, will be shown in detail. The
average size of the salmon of oregon
commerce is from Is to 20 pounds, and
they sometimes reach the enormous
weight of go and rs pounds. The fish
come in from the Pacific ocean, and
ascend the Columbia river to spawn.
When the eggs hatch, the little salmon
go out to sea, and remain until they
attain full size. Then instinct leads
them back to their natural waters.
The fish are caught in traps. Great
chutes have been built, leading from
the fish traps TO the canning factories.
The salmon virtually catch them
selves, and once in the tolls there is
no escape. They can only follow the
fumes, and end their careers in the
tin cans which the Oregonian fish
dealers provide for their reception.
The sturgeon and founder are also
caught in large quantities, and the
black bass, fostered by the United
States government fish commission, is
gaining in Importance each year.
Splendid timber grows abundantly
all over Oregon, but it is the Douglas
fir that is known the world over. The
largest specimen of this timber in
Oregon was felled at Aberdeen in May
for exhibit at the worlds fair. The
tree was 800 feet high, and 40 feet in
circumference at the base. 1t was
11S feet from the ground. to the first
limb. The age of this ant of the
Oregon pineries is estimated to be
over 400 years. More Ships carry
masts of Oregon Douglas fir than any
other timber. The largest and best
flag STATS are supplied by trees from
the same forests, Other til mbers and
lumber will be shown, including, es-
pecially, maple, oak and ASH.
Oregon's display of agricultural and
horticultural products will be large.
The prune industry of that state is
exceedingly important, the ! crop in
1902 being valued at more than 49,
100000. The Oregon fruit compares
favorably with the famous F~anch
product. Small fruits also Thrive in
the state. In agriculture, the exhibit
will be largely based on wheaF. oats,
barley, and the grasses.
