Mr.. and Mrs. e. Erickson from
near Wilderville were at the county
seat this week and they will have
some nice displays on exhibition at
the fair, as Mr.. Erickson makes
speciality of superb fruit, while Mrs.
Erickson raises some very fine chick
ems. They will endeavor to get their
neighbors interested in the approach.
ing fair.
Chas. TUFTS and Herbert Smith, the
genial proprietors of the Grants Pass
Cold Storage plant have done most
commendable thing in Offering the
use of their fine plant in taking care
of all fruits until the fair is in opera
ton. This action will be greatly
appreciated by the management. as
well as by the exhibitors.
Manager Robie. of the California
Pine Box & Lumber Co., did the
handsome thing by the fair manage
ment in agreeing to let it have the
lumber needed for the building and
arches at figure that made 1t possi-
BILE for the fair to be held, as the
funds for such matters are quite
limited. Such actions are most de-
sirable and show very conolusively
that the people of this city and COM
munity are alive to the importance
Of the coming fair.
That was indeed a splendid thing
for the carpenters of Grants Pass to
do, when they offered to donate their
services for couple of days in build
ing the exhibit hall and the two big
arches. The men who thus displayed
their public spiritedness in a very
practical manner were as follows
Jos. Harper. D. A. Fitzgerald, Geo.
Smith, Mark Day, A. Male, Albert
Hood, Geo. Crawford. ]. @. Calhoun.
Willard Chase, Geo Slower, Jud Tay-
lor, N. A. Stanley, H. V. Doxsee and
son, Earl Doxsee, Henry Hitler and
Elmer Day.
Music for the convention will be
furnished by an excellent orchestra,
composed Of local talent and this
feature Of the occasion will be of
an unusually high order of ex-
oellence.
The incoming trains will be
greeted with sight of two big
arches, one spanning Sixth street,
between + street and the railroad,
while the other will be located OIL
the same street, between @ and the
railroad track. These big structures
loom up immensely and present a
very striking appearance. They are
"a feet wide and 80 feet high. The
Keystone has the words Rogue River
Valley and numerous appropriate
notices adorn the arches. The
columns are to be covered with green
and gold bunting. the oolors Of the
fair, while ropes of evergreen will
adorn the borders of the arches and
the big arches will be illuminated
above and below with lot of elec.
trio lights.
The exhibition hall, measuring
6OISO feet stands conspicuously
near the railroad track, on Sixth
street and it will now be put in
shape as rapidly as possible. 1t will
contain the horticultural and sgricul.
tursl displays. The ladies have made
provisions for "rest ROOM in the
Conklin building and then they have
ARRANGED for two exhibit rooms. one
to be in the Churchill store room aud
the other in Halls building on Sixth

out the United States. This subject
will be handled by Hon. WI. Vswter,

advantages which will come to Rogue

tion canal along the foothills on each

tion of the waters Of the Rogue River
and Of storage reservoirs in giving
irrigation to everyone OF the thous.
ands Of acres untitled in this rich
valley.

Of this city. Mr.. Blanchard is
thoroughly conversant with this sub

feasible. but is also splendid invest

one that viii aid greatly in the de.
velopment Of this section Of the

SOME FAIR NOTES.
Something doing all the time" is
the way the fair management is find
ing things, nowadays and everything is
moving along in fine shape.
From outside points come reports to
the effect that many people will be
here to take in the fair and as the
Southern Pacific gives a special rate
of one and one-third fare for the
round tip, it is reasonable to ex-
pect that the attendance will be quite
large.
Thos. L.wmaD, one Of the hust'
ling farmers Of the Provolt vicinity
was in the city this week and left
with superintendent Meserve nice
lot Of Specimens for display at the
fair. Among them were a couple OF
samples of alfalfa, one nearly seven
feet high and the other even higher
and all grown on clay, hill land and
showing what that kind Of soil may
be made to produce. He has among
his collection a freak English prifh.
rose and some ore from a very promis'
ing copper ledge which has been de-
veloped enough to indicate that it il
very promising property. He will
put in some time hustling among his
neighbors. with the idea of getting
them also interested in the coming
fair. His father, who is a native OF
Kentucky, where they grow fine
tobacco, has been growing some very
fine specimens Of the real article on
his place and will have some on ex.
hibition at the fair. He will have
the cured article, as we'll as some

is before being cut and dried.

a paint mill in operation at the fair,

Emil Gentner was in Grants Pass
Tuesday, from his place on Board

he left some fine fruit with Supt.
Meserve, which was placed in cold

the League, but at the time when they

there was a conflict on between them

the parkkeeper should not have any

Baseball Notes

There is one matter which should be
called to the attention of the various
members of. the teams by their cap
tains This the slow manner in which
the men go to the bat. They will wait
| till the runner has reached first base,
| then pick out their bat and slowly adj
vance to the plate. This makes the
game longer and tires out the specta-
tors, who like to see fast play.
|
| Lowrey is putting up a good game
| for the Puns at second. He can stand
a little Improvement in the field as
well as the bat, but has learned to
wait for his base on balls very nicely.
Evers' stop of hard liner with his
left hand was beauty apdfmeant the
stopping of two runs.
The infielders are pretty well up
against it on account of the rough
ground. 1t is up to the trustees to
remedy this before someone gets hurt.
Some attempt has been made but it
has been unsuccessful.
Ringland. who was mainstay last
year when it came to batting, is weak
this year. Practise would do a lot of
good. He is not the only man on the
Pun team who might stand more work
in this line.
Olmos turned his old trick Tuesday,
working the pitcher for his base at
every opportunity. He mightFimprove
his fielding but he certainly has made
good ct the bat.
Eddie Fernandez should lead in bat
ting by the way he has been pound
ing the ball. Eddie Desha has fallen
off a bit in this line.
Leslie is getting to be a sure enough
pitcher. Some of his hot ones sizzle /
as they pass the plate.
Kuhina fielded and batted like a pro- /
fessional. He has never showed such /
good form before.
Darcy was there with the bat as
usual. He is the right man in a. tight |
place
Bert Bower has the confidence of
every player and spectator. He could
not be excelled as an umpire and many
ness of the game here from the IN
PLEASANT kicking seen so often on the
mainland.
