must move slowly and refrain from
mourning obligations that it could
not meet, hence, in the matter of Of
fering prizes, it must "cut it's cloth
to match it's money"
Accommodations for Stock.
One of the greatest difficulties con-
fronting the committee is the ar
ranging of accommodations for the
stock which will be shown. AS the
matter is now proposed, pens for the
sheep, swine, goats and poultry will
be provided, either on the vacant lots
near the Armory building, or in some
of the streets, while the horses and
cattle will be taken care of in barns
and shown on the streets daily for
two hours or more, in the forenoon
and afternoon each day of the fair.
A live stock parade will also be made
a feature of the show.
The thought expressed by every
member of the committee was to
make the fair essentially a Polk
county institution and not merely
Dallas affair. The Dallas CONNER
cial club undertook the preliminary
arrangements and appropriated of it's
funds because somebody must take
the initiative in all things. From
all over the county reports that the
people want an annual fair and are
willing to support it financially and
with exhibits. Polk county can dis
play products second to no other
county in the state and the value of
such yearly exhibitions is unquestion-
ed according to the unanimous opin-
ion of the members of the committee.
For this year, the committee cannot
offer expensive premiums owing to
limited funds, but it is hoped to make
a start and, with the formation of
a county association, it is believed
that satisfactory arrangements in
this regard may be made in the fu-
ture.
All Enthusiastic.
Every member of the committee is
in the coming fair and
with the support of some of the in
huential men of the county, men who
are noted for their progressiveness
and who are doing their share to
maintain the reputation of this county
as the "Blue Ribbon County of Or
agon, there can hardly be a doubt of
the ultimate success of the venture.
Those present from out of town at
nights meeting and who
pledged their support to the project
we're: Hon. C. L. Hawley, of Mon
mouth and Mccoy; T. w. Brunk,
Of Eola; e. V. d. PAUL, of Buell.; ].
w. Finn, of Mccoy and G. A. Wells, !
Of Buena Vista.
The committee adjourned to meet
again on Saturday, September IA.

BEAVER STATE LAND COMPANY
BUYS 35S ACRE TRACT IN
POLK COUNTY NEAR
MCCOY.
PLANS TO SPEND $l2,OOO.OO
Evan Evans Farm at Oak Grove
Passes TO Possession of Portland
Concern; "AppIebower" Name Sc
Iected; VIII Sell Land in Small
Tracts.

Development of tract of 35S
acres at Oak Grove near Mccoy, Polk
county, by a syndicate Of Portland
capitalists, and the expenditure of
more than $4,000 in converting the
land into fruit orchards, is the plan
proposed by the Beaver State Land
company, which has published plat
of its projected Improvement and
which will be filed soon with the
county clerk
The land consists of the former
farm of Evan Evans which he dis
posed of some time ago. 1t is among
the best tracts of lands in the county,
is prolific and peculiarly adapted to
the use to which it will be placed,
according to the statement of those
who know land values and the condi-
ton of the soils in different portions
of the county
'Applebower" Name Selected.
The promoters of the enterprise
will call their tract "Applebower.
The land has already been surveyed
and divided into tracts from three
and one-half to 10 acres in size. The
plat provides for roads on three sides,
and through the tract, thus giving
purchasers easy and handy egress to
and from their holdings. The COM
pany announces that it will plant
125 acres to fruit during the coming
season and will eventually plant the
entire tract. Apples will be the prin-
cipal fruit set out, it is reported.
These tracts will be sold on easy pay
ments and they will be handled in
much the same manner as other fruit
tracts are disposed of, the company
agreeing to look after the purchasers
interest until the orchard shall come
into bearing.
r. w. Dunlop is president of the
Beaver State Land company and r..
II. Gibson is secretary.
Actual development of the tract
will begin Immediately after the plat
is filed with the county clerk and ac-
cepted, 1t is stated that there is some
defect in the matter of the dedlca-
tion of roads. but this will probably
be remedied without great delay.

ORDER CLOSES OFFICE
No Sunday Mail Hereafter Says
POstOfIice Department I'm Obedience
of New Law BY Congress.

In compliance with orders received
from the postoffice department the
Dallas office was closed last Sunday
all day and no mail of any kind was
distributed in the boxes, the only eX-
ception being the special delivery let
ters which found their addresses. The
order was made because Of the pas
sage of a new postal bill which pro-
vides that all first and second class
postofices must close on Sunday, al
though mails will be dispatched as
usual, but all mail received will be
held and distributed and delivered
on Monday.
In Dallas there was much grumb-
ling at the order. as probably the
case elsewhere. But il was a new
thing and the public viii probably
become used to Il and adjust itself
to new conditions ultimately. Con-
siderable mail accumulated over Sun
day and Monday morning the office
force was kept busy for time dis
posing OF il. The volume was not
as great as il would have been, how
ever. had not two or three Eastern
mails which are usually received sun
day. been delayed until the follow
ing day.

! Matters in connection with the pro-
posed branch railroad which H.
EIirschberg of Independence will con-
struct into the hop section southeast
of that city and eventually reach
Buena Vista, called the Polk county
court to Independence and south of
that city on Friday The primary OBJ
ject of their trip was to inspect the
proposition of grade crossings on the
proposed road, application for which
will be made by Mr.. Hirschberg at
the regular monthly meeting of the
court which meets tomorrow. Lo-
cation of two proposed crossings were
Investigated, but it is probable that
there will be four in all although the
two which the board will pass upon
comprise all that will be affected by
the grading this year.
Plans for New Road.
The proposed road will branch off
the west side line of the Southern
Pacific about three miles south of In
dependence, and run in a southeaster
ly direction to tap the big hop fields
of that section. 1t is planned to
eventually build the line to the river
at Buena Vista, a distance of about
13 miles, but this year only about
two miles will be constructed
The survey for the n@w road shows
a water level grade, With the excep-
tion of one cut of approximately 900
feet. The building of this road, it is
declared, will offer easy and cheaper
transportation for the immense hop
crop in the locality affected, which
it has heretofore been necessary to
transport by team to a railroad sta
ton.
Arrangements for the right of way
has practically been made and it is
understood that construction work
will begin at once in order that this
years crop may be handled.
Board Meets Tomorrow.
The regular monthly meeting of
the Polk County Court takes place
tomorrow but, aside from the appli-
cation for the grade crossings, it is
expected that nothing but routine
business will come up for settlement.
There will be the usual grist of bills
to consider, but the cessation of road
operations for the present year elm

An order was entered on Thursday
appointing John S. Parker as fruit
inspector for Polk county. The APP
pointment was made several weeks
since but some of the requirements
of the horticultural laws were over
looked at the time, and the fact that
Mr.. Parker's appointment required
the approval of a state inspector to
become binding, was forgotten Such
approval has been given, however,
and the new inspector is now regu-
larly and fully clothed with his right
to serve.

With representative citizens present
from every section of Polk county,
and with good attendance of Dali
las boosters, the general committee
on arrangements for the coming fair
to be held in this city October 8, 4
and S, held an important session in
the County Court room in the Court
house on Saturday night and discuss
ed matters in connection with the
coming exhibition. Much interest
was manifested and every one who
attended the meeting took an active
interest in the suggestion Of plans for
the success of the show.
Live Stock Exhibition.
One, of the most important matters
discussed and decided, was the ques-
ton of arranging for a display of
live stock. 1t was finally unanimously
decided that premiums should be Of
fered and an effort made to secure
a creditable exhibition of this nature.
Those present from out of town told
of the interest in the county over
this matter and the general desire on
the part of the breeders for an oppor-
tunity to display thir stock. Sub
committees were named to look after
exhibits of the different kinds of live
stock as follows: Sheep, Hon. G. L.
Hawley, Monmouth; swine, T, w.
Brunk, Eola; goats, H. l.. Fenton,
Dallas; horses, J w. Finn, Mccoy;
poultry, Fl. A. Woods, Dallas; cattle,
+. E. Lynn, Perrydale. These men
will meet at the state fair in Salem
today and arrange a classification,
and Immediately thereafter will start
systematic effort to interest breed
ers in the coming show.
1t was decided to offer a series of
ribbons for prize winners. Pure bred
stock only will be shown and special
efforts will be made to secure eXhib-
it's from amateurs who have never
exhibited previously. Special prizes
will be arranged for them which will
be announced later.
Polk County Fair.
The adVisability of changing the
name of the coming exhibition was
suggested it being pointed out that
Harvest Festival" was a misnomer
inasmuch as the display would in
clude not only products of the soil
but exhibits from the school children
and from the stockmen. Therefore,
on motion, the name was changed to
"Polk County Fair" and as such it
will hereafter be known. The unan-
imous opinion of every member of
the committee was that a permanent
association should be organized and
this will probably be accomplished at
the time of the coming fair, or later.
For tha October fair owing to linn
tied funds, the committee felt that it
