FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

country was killed by the frost and
consequently there was but a small
display. Chas. Peterson exhibited a,
plate of Wealthy apples of good quail
ty and Mrs. Olaf Anderson a plate of
crabapples and a plate of ''any
variety" The magnificent apple dis
play of C. T. Johnson of Spokane,

BALL GAMES.
| The baseball contests between the
two strong teams of Milaca and Foley
proved a great drawing card. These
mines have certainly earned the repu-
tation of being two of the very best
in the northwest-they fully demon
strated their ability in the games of
Friday and Saturday afternoon at the
fair grounds. Milaca was, however,
victorious upon both occasions,
winning the first days game by
score of to 1 and the second days
by score of to 3. Each side
played for all there. was in it. The
boys put forth their utmost efforts to
win and, even though Foley lost, it
should not feel discounted did it's
best and it's best was good. Never
before-at Mile Laos county fair
did the crowd so much enjoy the ball
games.
