APPLE SHOW ALL READY.
November IA, at Spokane, Will Be a
Memorable One.

memorable One.
The third National Apple Show, to be
held in Spokane November IA to 10, in
elusive, will be on a considerably more
elaborate scale than any previous ex-
position. Anent the show Secretary Rem
H! Rice says:
Our prize lists embrace cash awards
and added premiums ranging from $25
for the largest single apple up to a
championship of $1,000 for the best car
load.
We had over 1000 separate entries last
year, with total of over 100000 ap-
pies. This year we expect 5000 entries
and 100000 apples.
The National Apple Show is a public
enterprise with two principal purposes
in view: First, the education of the
grower to better standards of apple
growing; second, the exploitation of this
wonderful resource throughout the
world. While the show is conducted at
financial loss, our citizens support it
because of it's broad scope and educa
tional purposes.
Among the features will be the free
apple packing school conducted every
forenoon under the direction of j. M.
Carroll and A. P. Bateham. We have
instituted this school because of the ed
vocational value to the growers and to
help relieve the demand for apple pack
ers, which far exceeds the present sup
ply.
Monday, November IA, the opening
day, will witness the first "Live Wire
| Convention in the northwest. We
have arranged this feature because APP
pie culture is being encouraged and fos-
tered through the commercial bodies and
we deem it proper that they should have
formal recognition on this occasion.
On the opening night the queen s cor.
onation will take place. This will be a
magnificent spectacle, produced with all
pomp and ceremony appropriate for
such an event.
Ladies and Children's Day will be
Tuesday, when the public schools of
| Spokane will close in order that the
children may visit this exhibition, our
school board considering our show of
educational value to the pupils.
On Wednesday we will have an apple
packing contest among experts from all
over the northwest, who will compete
for cash prizes.
Thursday will be Country Life Day,
celebrated with appropriate program
and convention of all persons inter
ested in this big movement.
Friday will be known as College Day,
when the faculties and students of all
northwestern colleges have been invited
to attend and enjoy special programs
in their interest.
Following the close of the show on
Saturday, November 10, we shall take
all of the district displays, besides six
of the carload exhibits and all of the
winners in the commercial classes, to
Chicago, where we will give a week s
exhibition, November % to December A.
Demonstrations in apple cookery,
band concerts, vaudeville programs,
meetings of growers and other conven.
tions will add to your pleasure and in
struction during the week.

william Patty. the man who entertained
large audiences in Los Angeles seven years
ago with his demonstrations Of liquid air
appeared yesterday at the Y M. c. A. build
ing, at which place he will lecture on Thurs
day night, with two very large and very
cold bottles of frozen oxygen. and caused
considerable amusement by his impromptu ex-
periments.
oscar, the negro porter admitted that he
was not fully informed as to, the merits OF
air in that form, and obligingly held out
his hand to see how It felt. moment later
he interrupted a furious massaging OF the
frosted member long enough to protest feebly,
''I,awsee, man, All done need that hand.
Mr.. Patty has added experiments with
wireless telegraphy and radium to his lecture,
and promises most interesting and con-
vincing demonstration of the future possi-
bilities of both subjects.
Despite the fact that the high cost OF
production" said Mr.. Patty, "has prevented
the practical application of liquid air TO many
commercial uses. its field is constantly grow
ing. and the big steel companies use large
quantities of it for cutting, with blow pipe,
