Demonstration Train Popular.

The state agricultural demonstra-
ton train no doubt did an immense
amount of good to the farmers, where
they attended the meetings, and took
some interest in the instructions offer
ed. The train this year is more COM
plete than heretofore, 1t passed
through the White river valley, Sept.
=, stopping at Kent part of the after
noon. The stock car under Mr.. Eos
ter had two splendid specimens of
Jersey COWS, and one Hereford. The
COWS were MIXED by a milking ma
chine, which attracted large amount
of favorable comment. There was
three pens Of swine, two very fine
Berkshire gifts weighing about BOZ
pounds each. A Poland China gilt
somewhat lighter and two year old
Duroc weighing about 500 pounds.
There was also one pen of sheep.
These animals are all taken from the
agricultural college farm and were eX-
cellent specimens of their class.

THERE IS
A Difference.

The campaign of education now be-
ing conducted to get our people to
realize the Importance of giving the
preference in their purchases to Wash
ington institutions should bear fruit.
1t should be borne in mind, however,
that buying of Washington agents for
foreign institutions is not building up
Washington enterprises. Especially
should this be remembered in our buy
ing insurance. Next to banking, the
matter of fire insurance effects our
finances more than any other one
thing. The amount now sent out of
the state to foreign insurance COM
panies exceeds the amount returned
in losses by more than six million dol
lars per year. Less than one million
dollars of this is returned in commits
sions. What effect would it have
upon our own finances if the other five
million dollars were retained in the
state through Washington companies?
Already fully two million dollars of
insurance has been retained within
the state through the Northwestern
Mutual Fire Association.

race meet of the SnohomlSn county
agricultural association was held at
Everett, Wash, on August 30th TO
September Sd, inclusive. The lease
on the present site expires this year
and new site is proposed for next
year. Some talk is going about Tor
the Joining of the Everett society
with the Snohomish County Grange
fair and combining the two as one
fair next season. This would certain
ly seem advisable. The Grange FAIR
is TO be held Sept. 2l-22-23. They
promise to bring out better showing
of livestock and agricultural products
in general.
The Everett management seem to
give too much attention to vulgar
shows and it was seen that their tick
ct buyers were generally boys from
Is to 10 years. Such shows should be
eliminated.
THE RACE MEET WAS GOOD
performance worthy of note was
the lowering of the track record from
2:l3h to 2:O9L. This was accomp-
Iished by the North Dakota horse
Allerdaw.
The fair directors after seeing the
track record lowered, Immediately got
together and pur chased the handsom-
est silver cup to be found in the city,
had it properly engraved and present.
ed the same to Al Russell, the driver
of Allerdaw.
The Rural Spirit says: "The grind
stand was entertained daily with
from one to five political speeches,
and, then might have added the
grandstand enjoyed it whether the
people did or not.
The livestock show was very scant.
One herd of Shetland ponies, one nero
of (1uernseys and one herd of Hol-
stems made up all the showing OF
livestock breeders except few single
stations and drivers. The hlgh
quality of these stations made up
somewhat for lack of numbers, as
every one of them would claim atten-
ton at the largest, shows in America.
FINE SHOWING OF SHETLANDS
G.. f. Naming of the Snohomlsh
county Pony Farm had most OF his
herd there and they made fine show
ing and drew the attention of every
visitor. Mr.. Manning is so engrossed
with other work that he has decided
to dispense his entire herd. 1t is
nitv TO see this nice herd scattered.
Thev are high-class and as good as
anv of the more widely advertised
eastern herds.
Only one pony was shown outside OF
G.. r. Manning and his childrens line
exhibit. All the original stock of his
Snohomish County Pony Farm are
imported. These include over twenty
mares and three or four stations.
Our readers will have chance to
buy any or all of these at the West
arn WASHINGTON fair to be held at Sc
attle during the week of Sept. 10 to
o3rd The herd numbers over forty
head and these together with his doz-
an or fifteen rigs will be sold at prices
to suit the buyers.

 These checks represent the votes that have already been cast and there are probably as many more than will be turned in before the contest closes
 Once more the manager of this con- test announces that the ballots used since the opening of the contest have been carefully filed away and can be checked up and verified by any one so wishing after the final count on July Eth.
 Of course there is no question that the figures are accurate, as the bal lots are counted always by representa- tives of both the Gazette and The Re- publican, then re-checked by the con- test manager.
 However, every ballot has been care LuIiS pIGStl Ntu anu WIFI De open TOT H. spectiOn and re-capitulation after the final count
 No more special or period prizes will be offered during this contest, so the contestants who have a lot of checks at home will lose nothing by voting them right now.
 Special attention is called to the fact that the entries closed last Saturday night and no girl whose name is not on the present list will be allowed to enter.
 This fact was given wide publicity in last weeks papers and 1t seems strange that everyone did not know of it, still three girls applied at the contest department yesterday for nomination blanks, not knowing that all entries were closed.
 Each was armed with formidable looking sack full'' of sales slips and would no doubt have been tOp-liners had they entered in time.
 They were much disappointed at not being permitted to enter, but of course that was impossible.
 Sc where your favorite stands to- day on the list.
 Here's the results of the count Tues day evening, June 18th:
Arizona republican., 1910-06-29

The "home stretch" of the Boston Stores big popularity contest is in sight, and every girl in the race is gathering her forces for the supreme dash to victory.
 The winner of the grand prize is of course a matter of conjecture, as at least five of the contestants claim to have enough ballots in reserve to win. Some of these girls naturally are mis :. taken, but which ones only the final count will tell and the surest way is to keep right on working until the last day of the contest, as many surprises are no doubt in store for all of us when the final count is made.
 Once more we wish to call the con testants' attention to the fact that on Saturday, July 9th, which is the last day of the contest, the ballot box will be closed promptly at p. n1., when the final count will be made and the five winners announced.
 No girl should wait until the last day, nor even the two last days to turn in her surplus of votes. as the clerks will be unable to handle only a certain number in one or two days and some one will be left without a chance to vote Turn in your extra supply of sales slips this week or the first of next week and be on the safe side.
 If this is not done some of the con- testants will undoubtedly be beaten by their own carelessness.
 Votes will be counted again on Thursday evening and the new list will appear in Fridays papers The Boston Store is receiving compliments and congratulations daily for its wis dom and generosity in selecting the two representatives to personally con- duct the trip to Santa Barbara, there by assuring all relatives and friends of the girls who make the trip that they will be carefully looked after and properly chaperoned every moment while they are away from home.
 Mrs. William E. Jacquith, wife of the Boston Stores manager, and her sister, Miss Keane, who will act as the Boston Stores special envoys during the trip, have been instructed to see that every member of the party is carefully looked after at all times and
