Summer was a garden where the BIOS
soming was gay.
September came and opened out the
'' gate little way,
And we gazed away off yonder and we
saw the golden CLINT,
1t looked like Miss October bringing
treasure from the mint.
November grew 50 reckless that she
threw the gold around
She tossed it high into the sky and
strewed it Ger the ground.
That garden is abandoned and the gate
stands open wide.
The blossoms are forgotten midst the
splendor and the pride.
And then the wind comes prowling and
the opulence so vast
Is buried meath the snowdrift or is
scattered on the blast.
And the time of weary waiting wher
the reckless joy is Ger
Makes the old world glad to welcome

Displays,

The western lines which will have
exhibits at the American Land and
Irrigation Exposition are planning num-
erous unique features for their displays.
The Northern Pacific has representa-
tives visiting all of the localities along
its lines gathering exhibits of different
character ranging from enormous pota-
toes weighing two pounds piece to
heads of wheat which. will run seventy
bushels to the acre. The west and
northwest will compete with all other
sections of the country for the favor of
the land-hungry fasteners and the
roads are determined to make hand
some showings. Exhibits of fruit and
vegetables of all kinds, both fresh and
processed, will be artistically displayed
and as a special and unique feature,
the Northern Pacific commissary de-
partment has built a miniature train
made of sugar, 10 feet long. This will
be on exhibition and will be lighted by
electricity, presenting a realistic view
of the North Coast Limited emerging
from Cascade tunnel.
Illustrated books and pamphlets Of
interest to homeseekers are being pre-
pared, and it is estimated that full
carload of literature will be required to
take care of the requests, judging from
the experience which the road has had
at other land shows.
A colossal map of the Northern
Pacific system in detail will be a feature
of the exhibit, this map being specially
painted for the purpose. A huge sign
made of electric lights will flash out
the name of the railway, and its trade
mark in colors, and large trade mark
made of the various kinds of seeds viii
be displayed. This trade mark is
rare work of art, being six and one-hal'
feet square, and it required the indivi
dual time of one man for three week,
to construct it.
The Northern Pacific is offering ;
prize of $500 in gold for the best ex
hibit of rs boxes of apples, competi
ton open to the world. A great dea
of interest has been aroused amoni
fruit growers, and it is expected tina
there will be a large quantity of apple
on display in competition for this prize
