field of conquest that was then new
to this state. Since that time, the sue
cessful series of flights by the local
man, Thomas Mccoy, 1t has added
greater laurels. And during the re-
naming days of this week, with the
two birdmen engaged in daily flights,
the city will take place that it will
hold for some time without fear of
displacement.
Frank v. Kent, who was in charge
Of the aviation program last year, is
again at the helm this year. His ex-
perience will stand him we'll in hand
in the handling of this feature, ad-
mittedly one of the most important of
the entire fair as crowd-getter, and
one that will prove q real thriller
every day.
The contract for the flights by Nc
Goey was signed up Saturday evening
after Mccoy had made another Of
his successful flights( running from
the aviation field west Of the city to
the grounds, descending in the rain.

With double aviation features for
the North Dakota state fair in Grand
Forks this week, this city takes the
front rank as an entertainer of Flick
ertial people. No. fair association, no
single organization of any kind in the
state, has ever before undertaken so
stupendous an attraction as is the
double aviation feature offered for the
state fair this week.
Phillip o. Parmalee, world renowned
aviator and the king pin of the famous
Wright squad, will vie with Thomas
Mccoy, the Grand Forks aviator who
has made such signal success of his
flights in the last few days, in the
entertainment of the thousands who
will come to the city.
Grand Forks .day-Tuesday-will

both Of them daring conquerors of
the sky, and both of them ready-nay,
willing and anxious-to give the. state
fair crowds of this city such thrills
as they never before have experienced
and both are capable Of doing SO.
When, year ago, the Grand Forks
fair management announced that it
had been successful in signing up for
flights by one Of the famous Wright
machines, and when, few weeks la
ter Arch Hoxsey cut such great capers
in the air, this city entered upon a

PURE FOOD EXHIBIT HERE
Minnesota Inspector and Assistant
Here With Display-WiH Give
Talks Every Afternoon.

The Minnesota state pure food ex-
hibit, which was secured through the
efforts of the pure food committee of
the Women's Civic league for the
North Dakota state fair, arrived this
morning and it is in charge of State
Inspector Heiberg and his assistant.
The two gentlemen have been busy
all morning getting the exhibit set up
in the Liberal Arts building and
promise to show North Dakota state
fair visitors a great many things that
Minnesota citizens have not yet seen,
much being added to the display
since it was shown at it's last state
fair.
Inspector Heiberg has arranged to
give pure food talks every afternoon
that will be of great interest to the
public as we'll as of much educational
value. Considering the fact that
North Dakota lost its exhibit in the
fire, the state is especially fortunate
in being able to have N1innesota's ex-
cellent display for this occasion.

CULINARY JUDGING
TAKES PLACE
TUESDAY
Women's Department Assumes
New Importanst at This
Years Fair

"But we will be ready for the
crowds in the morning." Mrs. Robert
Green, superintendent Of the depart
ment, assured Times representative
this morning.
Every article for the women's de-
partment must be in tonight, and that
fact has been responsible for con-
tinuous stream of women to the fair
grounds during the day.
Judging in the culinary department
will commence tomorrow morning and
the awards will be announced by
noon. Mrs. A. l. Hunter and Mrs.
H. c. Finch are the judges of the cul-
mary. This season several classes of
articles have been removed from the
summer fair culinary department and
given to the winter fair, such as jel-
lies, preserves, etc.
In the fancy work department, Mrs.
H. McKinnon and Mrs. F. w. Schla-
berg are the judges.
This elaborate display of the wom-
ems department will be found on the
second floor of the liberal arts build
ing, and it takes up more space than
has ever before been devoted to 1t.
That fact is due, of course, to the in
creasing interest that is being taken
by women throughout the state.
Up to 12 o'clock noon today the
names of over $50 women had been
enrolled as exhibitors in the depart
ment.

A LETTER
FROM OREGON

x An interesting letter received from
w. J. Evans, a former MinOt citizen,
informs us that he has located 1t
klamath Fails, Oregon, a city Of $500
population. The government has dug
an irrigation ditch there at cost of
$5,OOO,OOO which irrigates fifty thou.
sand acres of land. klamath
Is located between upper and lower
klamath lakes, the upper lake
being one mile above the city and 1t
Is twe.ve miles wide and forty miles
long. Hartman lodge is located
twenty miles farther up at the upper
end of the lake Is located the famous
Crater lake summer resort. The lakes
are connected by Link river which has
81 foot drop in one mile, affording
100000 horse power, ten per cent of
which is being used for lighting pur-
poses. 1t is estimated that there are
20 billion feet of lumber adjacent to
the upper lake, two saw mi is being
in operation now, and the second iarg-
est in the state will be installed next
spring. the capacity to be sixteen
hundred thousand feet a day.
The valley land is adapted to wheat,
oats and alfalfa. Vegetables grow
fine. One man cleared $500 from five
acres. Sugar beets do better than in
southern Alberta, and that is going
some.
BY the last Of June, the Natron cut
of will be completed, which will place
Klamath Falls on the main line be-
tween Portland and Frisco. The town
will be a freight and passenger divi-
sion point and the cutoff will save
% hours between Portland and Fris-
co. klamath Falls has 100 barrel
-four mill, several ware houses, and
wholesale establishment.
The famous hot springs are located
there. People heat their houses with
hot water heating plants, the water
from the springs being hot enough to
furnish the required heat. All that
is necessary is to dig down ten feet
under the house, and insert a coil
pipe.
Trout fishing is good, it being moth
ing unusual to pull out fifteen pound
trout.
Mr.. Evans is in the real estate bust
ness at klamath Falls, and thinks
the place one Of the best cities for
the size he has ever seen. -.-
