time and in building adjoining the
fruit show. The territory covered
by this corn show is the west half
of Iowa, the east half of Nebraska,
several counties in the northeast
corner of Kansas, and several coun-
ties in the northwest of Missouri.
There is very great interest taken in
the corn division of the show in this
locality and it will attract thousands
of people to the exposition that would
not otherwise come.
I'VE can safely say to you that
our gate receipts will far exceed
100000.
"Our premium list for this years
show is not yet out. will be able
to send it to you in two or three
weeks from now. Will send you,
however, last years premium list, by
this days mail. The official pre-
MUM list this year will be something
like it, except that it will be more
liberal to western growers and very
much larger in every respect. There
is no doubt but that you will be salts
fed with it when you receive it.
Kindly take up the matter of a
display with your organization there
and advise me as soon as possible, in
order that l may keep for you one
of our best locations.

day in the congressional primaries
which are being held by both parties
throughout the six districts of Mary
land. The principal contests are for
the democratic nominations in the
Third and Fourth districts and the
republican nomination in the sixth
district. The democratic contest in
the Third district is between Charles
P. Goady and James McQuade, both
members of the state legislature. The
republican candidate in this district
will be either Charles W. Main, the
organization candidate, or Charles J.
F. Steiner, an anti-organization re-
publican. Four democrats, two re-
publicans and one independent are
contesting for the Fourth district
nomination In the Sixth district
Representative Pearre withdrew from
the race at the eleventh hour and left
three rival aspirants to fight it out
for the republican nomination. D.
J. Lewis will probably be the demo-
cratic nominee in this district. In
the Fifth district two democrats are
engaged in hot fight for the seat
of Representative Mudd, republican.
Representatives Covington and Tai
bolt, both democrats, will be renom-
mated in the First and Second dis
tricts, respectively.

NEW PAPER
VIII Be Started in Suburb Of Spokane
With 100000 Capitalization.

Spokane, Aug. 30.-Five hundred
thousand dollars will be expended by
the Inland Empire Paper company,
just organized and Incorporated un-
der the laws of Washington, in the
establishment of a wood pulp paper
mill near Trant, Wash, nine miles
east of Spokane, where a large water
power site has been secured. The
plant, with floor area of four acres,
will have a capacity of 80 tons of
print paper and 10 tons of wrapping
paper a day. The company expects
to find a market in the northwest for
all it's products.
W. A. Brazeau of Milwaukee, who
is widely known in the middle west
through his connection with plants
at Grand Rapids and elsewhere, or,
gained the company, the officers of
which are: President, Wilbur S
Yearsley, Spokane; vice president,
L. M. Alexander, Milwaukee; trus-
tees, Don c. Ryrie, Spokane, and
Judson C. Rosebush, Appleton, Wis.
Among the stockholders are residents
of Minnesota and Wisconsin who
have been identified with the indus
try.
Mr.. Brazeau, who will be general
manager of the company, has as his
assistant o. w. Dodge, who will be
superintendent of the plant and it's
operations. Construction work will
begin at once and it is expected to
begin delivering paper within IL
months. Charles B. Pride, formerly
of Appleton, is engineer and architect
in charge of the project.
Mr.. Pride, who promoted the Spo-
kane Paper and Pulp company, of
which the new organization is the
outgrowth, says there is sufficient
raw material in northern Idaho and
eastern Washington to operate the
plant for 100 years..

SOLICITING FRUIT
EXHIBITS
Commercial Club Has EN-.
ployed G. M Lewis to
Solicit Growers,

When immigration Agent Graham
of the Great Northern was here last
week, he strongly recommended that
the club secure a good man to stay
in the field throughout the harvest
season soliciting superior samples of
fruit to be used for display purposes
Acting on this suggestion, the trus-
tees have employed C. NJ. Lewis. He
started out this morning and will see
every grower in the valley time and
again.
Secretary Coburn suggests, how
ever, that ranchers phone in to the
club whenever they have anything
ready, not waiting for the solicitor to
arrive. He will then come right out
to the grower direct.
Some fine exhibits were brought in
yesterday and Immediately forwarded
to the Great Northern railway at
Spokane for processing. o. G. Fish
brought in a cluster of Hungarian
prunes, IS prunes of large size at
tached to a limb IL inches long. F.
E. Ping contributed one dozen extra
fancy peaches measuring each about
IL inches in circumference.

WANT EXHIBIT At
COUNCIL BLUFFS
National Horticultural Con
gress Making Strong
Bid to Wenatchee.

A representative of the Council
Bluffs Horticultural exhibition will
be in Wenatchee tomorrow. His pur-
pose in coming to this city is to
make arrangements if possible for
this valley to be represented at the
Third Annual exposition to be held
in Council Bluffs, November 1919.
Yesterday the commercial club
secretary received the following from
Superintendent Reed of the con-
gress:
There are 100000 people living
in Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota
that will not have single apple this
fall, unless they buy it, and there
never was a better opportunity to
dispose of your splendid fruit than
this year. l have lived in Iowa my
entire life and have never known
year anything like the present one
has been. We usually have some
fruit, but this year we have nothing
except about SO per cent crop of
grapes.
1--WE would like very much to have
you take up the matter of an exhibit
of your fruits at our exposition with
your commercial organization there.
|B. M. Chapman, of Cashmere, has re-
Gently written me that he will prob
ably be here with a car of fruit for
the exposition. We have plenty of
room for two or three cars from your
section and think it would be as
much to your interest as to ours for
you to be identified with us.
"Our premium list this season will
be very large and very attractive and
you no doubt would win your share
of the premiums and in addition to
the prizes won, you could sell your
exhibit after the exposition at price
which / am certain would be salts
factory to you. We had a display
of Wenatchee apples at the 1908 ex-
position and that exhibit was the
finest collection of choice apples ever
shown here. We would like another
just like it this season.
Our attendance at the exposition
this season will double that of either
of the previous years, for the reason
first, that the exposition runs nine
days this year instead of six, as here
tofore; second, the Missouri Valley
Corn Growers association will hold

Fruit Stand display.

Dick Lillis has arranged very
tasty display at his fruit stand on
Wepatchee avenue. 1t comprises all
the seasons fruit products and would
form creditable exhibit at any show
anywhere on earth. The big Wolf
River apples stand like guardians
over the summer apples, peaches,
plums, prunes, grapes, etc. The
keeping up of exec Ient fruit stands
is of much benefit to the valley, af-
foriing as they do constant shows to
strangers and opportunity at all
times to secure samples of fruit to
send east.
