TOOK IN THE FAIR.

The Pilot Man attended the Flat
head fair last Friday and was thor
oughly delighted with all that he
saw. The agricultural exhibit, it is
said, is not as large as it was
a year ago, but what there was of
it was excellent. The exhibit from
Dayton attracted a great deal of at
tention. They had large individ-
ual display of everything that grows
Flathead women are without a dout
handy with the needle, as could be
seen by the large and varied dis
play of art needle work shown.
There was also q large display of
photographs and paintings that were
excellent. The Houston Alaska
trophies were hung up in one of the
halls, but these like a great many
other displays. were not marked so
that anyone could tell what they
were thus a great deal of interest
was lost.
Fred Whiteside probably had the
largest individual display of apples.
Mcintosh Reds are his specially and
he had about SO boxes very tasteful
ly arranged. The only thing that
Fred lacked was the barrel of cider
usually kept on tap on these &C.
cassiOns.
Rollins had large fruit display.
They had many varieties of apples,
grapes, plums, pears, etc. There
was a large display of homemade
preserves. There were at least 100
entries of jelly made from Flathead
fruits.
The display of stock was small,
but as this is neither a dairy or
stock-raising valley, much could not
be expected, however it is crafty
ing to know that many of the farm
ers are drifting into the dairy class.
The school work of the various
schools in the county interested the
majority of the visitors. The work
displayed was excellent and it is
to be regretted that there was no ex
hibit there from Whitefish.
The running races did not stir up
as much interest as was expected.
The delays between each was so
long that one lost interest in them.
The bucking broncos were excel
lent. The trick mule, Dynamite. ere
ated an uproar with his antics and
defied anyone to ride him. The po-
tatoe race between the cowboys on
horse back made things lively for
time and Madam Wanda and her
dogs amused the large audience
twice during the afternoon.
Taken as a whole the fair was
good and the management is deserv-
ing of great deal of credit for the
work they did in getting it togeth-
er SO we'll under trying circum-
stances.

FLATHEAD IS A BIG COUNTRY

Last Sunday the Pilot Man took
a trip across Flathead lake to Polse q
on the big freight and passenger
steamer Klondyke. This trip is one
of the most enjoyable outings a per-
son can take. The lake at this time
of the year is especially beautiful,
clothed in autumnal dress of bright
colorings. A person who has never
taken the trip has little idea of the
vast scope of territory embraced in
this fertile Flathead valley. Com
mencing at the head of the lake
are the fruit orchards stretched all
along the shore. Dotted here and
there from one end of the lake to
the other are pretty homes and Or
chard tracts, but there are thous-
ands of acres of tillable soil yet un-
occupied. Think what a wealth this
Will mean when put under cultiva-
ton. At the foot of the lake on a
hill overlooking the water lies the
city of Poison. and all about it
of acres of fine agricultur
al lands stretch in all directions.
From all appearances Poison is a
busting little town just now, as it
Is the shipping point for the big
wheat harvest. The town, though
new, has a good representation of
every kind of business and there are
many fine homes in the residence
district. Being dependent on the
boats to move their crops the people
are naturally very anxious for the
coming of a railroad. Some road
will surely tap this large and fer
tile territory before long.

There was good exhibit at the
fair of live stock and poultry, but
the exhibitors were very negligent
about cleaning up their stock. A
little soap and water applied to the
coat of the beast or fowl, and few
minutes extra work cleaning out the
pens would have made them a great
deal more attractive. In the whole
large poultry exhibit there was only
one pen of chickens that looked as

WISH WE HAD NOW.

While at the Flathead fair the
Pilot Man was accosted by numerous
remarks, such as where is the
Whitefish exhibit" l heard your
town was going to show off your big
potatoes. What's the matter they
didn't get here?" I'VE would like
to have seen Whitefish represented
here with her stump land products
you talk SO much about, but regret
they did not come" There were
school school exhibits from the other
The Whitefish pilot. [volume] (Whitefish, Mont.) 1904-current, 1911-10-19

schools In the county, but the space
reserved for Whitefish was vacant.
Why? No, not because we did not
have anything to exhibit. and not
because We were ashamed to make
an exhibit, but just because we did
not have time; we were SO busy TAX
ing care of the abundant yield that
was produced ON our stump land
soil. It's hardly the proper spirit
to show, and does a great injustice
to the town and vicinity.
On the other hand in speaking to
Whitefish people who were there and
saw the exhibits remarks such as
these were heard: II wish we had
entered our chickens there. l am
sure we could have carried off a
prize" "If Mr.. So and So had sent
down an exhibit of potatoes he
would have contested for the first
prize easily" Next year we will
have space reserved for our city
and have a big exhibit. 1 feel con-
fident from what have seen that
Whitefish can produce just as fine
fruits and vegetables as what are
supposed to be the most favored
parts of the valley" "You should
try to impress upon the people Of
Whitefish the necessity of having an
exhibit" The Pilot Man has been
pounding away since last spring
about an exhibit at the fair, and
shall continue to do so for the next
fair, and he hopes that now since
number have had their eyes opened
to the Importance of an exhibit tha
his efforts will bear fruit. Keep
this in mind.

GOOD ROADS
WHAT THEY PROMISE

One hundred millions of dollars
for good roads! One hundred mil.
lion times as much money as the
government ever spent to make the
country roads a little easier for
traffic! That is what a prominent
United States senator has recently
advocated Think of it! Just to fill
up the ruts and the holes to make
pulling trifle easier for few
tired farmers horses!
Why? Because the people of the
United States have at last came to
see that there is but little else in
this country SO fundamentally neces-
sary to the individual welfare of
each citizen as are good roads. That
is the answer. 1t appears, on the
face of it. a perfectly simple answer
and one that at first thought does
not provoke much interest and arous
es no establishment. And yet the
gospel of good roads has come to
mean salvation for the dying towns
and the sick communities as we'll as
for that greater evil-the high cost
of living.
Never before in the history of
this country has there been such an
awakening as that which has re-
suited recently from the scientific
study Of the economic conditions
now in existence. The citizens
physicians who made the diagnos-
is have stated that bad roads are
at the bottom Of the existing high
prices of necessities. Why? There
are several answers. One of them
is best illustrated by the story of
the woman in small town who re-
Gently went into a grocery store and
asked the price of eggs. The store
keeper quoted his price.
"Why!" she exclaimed THAT is
more than they ought to be at this
time of the year, cents more than
l ever paid before"
II know that" replied the mer-
chant, but it can't be helped. The
roads have been so badly lately that
the farmers won't bring in their pro
ducts"
That is the whole story in a nut
shell. There are many others like
1t, some more important than others.
That same woman probably placed
her order with mail order grocery
house, leaving the express company
to deliver the goods Irrespective of
the condition of the roads. The mer-
chant in the story lest a us.omer,
the farmer lost a chance to market
his products, and the woman final
ly found that she had paid a big
price for her goods after all-and
all of this because the roads were
bad
