Wednesday afternoon about 8 o'clock,
but | was too tired to go to the fair
grounds. While looking for place
to sleep that night l travelled about
through the business sections of the
city. Nearly every business house in
that fiourishing city had it's front win
dows decorated with fruits-apples,
pears, ounces, plums, prunes and
crabapples, with quite sprinkling OF
cantaloupes, watermelons, monstrOus
pumpkins and enormous squashes. APP
pes and peaches predominated and
red apples were decidedly in the lead.

say that some one had painted the

this window display. Nothing of the
kind was seen there six, eight or ten
years ago, when | was able to attend
the fair. | remarked to some of the
people about this new departure and
/ was informed that the greatest cred
it should be given to Ed. Remy for
this new feature. Money was made
up among the citizens of North Yak
ina and prizes were offered for these
window displays. The idea is a good
one and has yielded good results, for
Tie strangers as they walked the
streets were often heard to remark:
Did you ever see such fruits?" Sure

Yakima County had a decided adj
vantage over all other parts of the
state in the fact that it is compare
lively easy to get up display at
home. 1t is amazing that Chelan
County should make such a wonderful
display when it is remembered that
their fruit was shipped nearly 800
miles by rail, but the fair is right
in the midst of the orchards of Yakima
County, and it was not difficult mat
ter to marshall a magnificent display.
The following distinct displays from
Yakima County appeared in the hall:
Yakima County by the Horticultural
Union, Ahtanum, Union Gap Irriga-
ton Company. Mckee, Fruitvale,
Matches Valley, Granger and HI. w.
Gilbert, who put up an individual ex-
hibit. 1t would be great pleasure to
speak of these exhibits separately,
but space forbids my going into de-
tai S. If there had been no display
OIL fruit except that from Yakima
County but one word would describe
it, and that word is GRAND.
BY a wise arrangement it was so
provided that any county in the state
could make an exhibit and not come
in competition with Yakima County.
Tie merchants of North Yakima
raised a special fund of 5000 to be
given in three premiums, first $500,

mind only four counties in the state
were represented in this bewildering
display, viz, Chelan, Spokane, Kitti-
tas and Yakima. In the Chelan Coun-
ty exhibit Wenatchee, Cashmere and
Leavenworth were represented, but
the display was magnificent. The Yak
ina County display had greater mum

Ian County went it was not surpasse d

exhibit, the money all went to other
counties. Chelan County won the first

understand that the fair commission
ers could not offer premiums out Of
the state funds without including all

up this special fund.
The State Fair Commission, how
ever, put up $500 in four premiums,
with Yakima included. In this con-
test Yakima County won the first
prize, $780, Che an County second,
$3.50; Kittitas third, 800; and Spo-
kane County fourth, $50. In this con-

The House Serva,t Problem.

a French servant who has been
employed for any length Of time in
an American family is considered by
the better class Of French people as
spoiled for their service. Partly as
an effect Of this cause, partly in con-
sequence of the Socialistic ideas
which prevail SO largely among the
working classes, and partly on ac
count Of the insistent readiness of
the servant class in French cities to
take advantage Of every chance to
increase their income, the cost of
domestic service Of all kinds has ad-
vanced at least 25 per cent since The
spring Of the year 1900.

The great compensating advantage
in the general situation consists in
the fact that fair proportions Of
the increased cost Of food products

circuit judges $500 each, mainly for
the reason that it was not the proper
thing to select one class Of officers
and increase their salaries while let
ting the salaries Of State officials re-
main at the very low figures which
they are now. The Increased expcn-
iilurcs, however, nave not been on
>ount Of salaries. III fact this
tate is paying its State officials
ANONYMOUSLY low salaries and there
should be II general increase. The
idea Of expecting any one to serve
the State rs State officer on $1,000
and live rs Il State officer should
live, is ridiculous. Unless he happens
to have other sources Of income this
salary would not meet the necessary
expenses Of living in Columbia, not
to take in to consideration the loss
he would sustain by giving up his
private business to serve the State.
The three largest items Of increase
have been in the expense account Of
the State Hospital for the Insane;
in the appropriation for Confederate
pensions AMI in the increased de-
mani from the State educational in
