FINE STOCK WILL BE SEEN.
Prospects Point to Great Fair In
Portland In September.

Success is assured to the exposition
Of the Portland Fair & Livestock AS
ISOLATION, beginning September S.
Ten thousand dollars in premiums to
be divided among exhibitors has been
voted by the board of directors 1t is
a sum equal to that awarded among
competitors at the Oregon State Fair,
and this has hitherto been the largest
on the Pacific Coast. Due to central
location and superior shipping advan-
tages the proposed premiums are ex-
pected to make Portland, next au-
tumn, the biggest fair town of the
West, and to give justification to the
name, Progress Exposition Of 1910"
The premium list is to be arranged
at once and made public. The prizes
are for awards to the men who are
giving time and thought to the inn
provement of livestock on the Pacific
Coast. 1t is felt that the men who
work earnestly and unselfishly should
receive the recognition which their eff
forts deserve.
The fair is to open Monday, Septem-
Der b, Labor day. 1t VIII also De the
biggest day of the fair. Great parades
first of industrial Portland, then of the
exposition, will be leading features.
Special transportation rates on trains
and boats and interurban lines will be
made. Arrangements will be made to
entertain thousands of visitors from
oregon and Washington.
The fair directors have held no
more enthusiastic meeting than that
of last night President Maris and
Welch, as well as a number
of committees are proceeding busily
with the final arrangements for the
monster exposition. All fear that the
session will not be an unqualified sue
