THE BIGGEST EVER
National IrriOatiOn Congress to be Held Immediately Prior to Cali
 fOrnia State Fair

It Is announced at Sacramento by the officials of the National Irrigation congress and of the California State fair that the dates of these two events have been fixed to cover the first two weeks of September and that an Inter state exposition of irrigated lands prod ucts on a large scale will be held, commencing with the opening of the irrigation congress on Monday, Sep tember 2d, and continuing until the close of the State fair, Saturday, Sep tember l4th.
 This will have the effect of making the California State fair an interstate fair, so tar as agricultural products are concerned. and 1t Is altogether probable that the live stock feature, too, will be made to include all the western states. "The California State Fair, Interstate Irrlgated-lands' Products Exposition and Western Stock Show" Is the name that has been suggested for the big event, which will eclipse any similar effort ever made In ths state, with the single exception of the Midwnter fair held in San Francisco several years ago.
 Under the plans tentatively agreed upon the details of the interstate ex- position will be handled by the State Agricultural society. The board of control of the irrigation congress will, of course, take an active interest in 1t, and will offer handsome prizes for in- terstate exhibitors, In addition to those offered by the State agricultural socie- ty. A number of cups and other tro- phies we'll worthy of interstate competi- ton will be among the prizes offered. and it is expected that competition for these will be open to all other states, but not to California. as a second set of trophies and prizes will be offered for State fair exhibitors. In the inter- state exposition this State will act as
Imperial Valley press and the Imperial press., 1907-02-23

host to visiting states and visiting ex-
 hIbItors of irrigated land products and
 will hang up prizes for which her guests will compete.
 The proposed exposition has been fully discussed between the members of the board of control of the irrigation congress and Mir. ]. A. Filcher, secre- tary of the State agricultural society, and the plans are practically determln- ed. subject to the approval of the d. rectors of the State agricultural society at the next regular meeting. to be he'd in thls city, February 24th
 Details for the big event are still to be determined. but It Is probable that the interstate dry lands exposition will open Monday, September 2d, and that an effort will be made to have the ag- rtcultural and horticultural exhibits of the California State fair In place also by that time. The irrigation congress will be scheduled to meet on the 2nd, but the proceedings of the session will probably be deferred until Tuesday, the Sd. Saturday, the closing day of the irrigation congress and the opening day of the State fair will be marked by some kind of grand demonstration, including a parade that will eclipse any previous affair of the kind.
 The board of control of the fifteenth national irrigation congress will under take to expend $5o,ooo providing for and entertaining the congress. Two weeks of enjoyment will be provided and visitors will be given the time of their lives. The days of the session will be quiet, in order that the attention of the delegates may not be distracted from tae main purpose of the congress but other days will be full of live pro- gram Anticipating desire on the part of visitors from other states to see as much as possible of California, a series of excursions will be arranged for their benefit. These will be run through the Sacramento and San Joa- quin valleys and possibly as far as the Klamath project on the north, the Truckee-Carso project on the east and the Yuma project on the south.
