GOOD EXHIBITS ARE SHOWN
Display OF chehalis County Produce
at Bowes Brothers Office At
tracts General Attention

Aberdeen residents who unfortun.
ately were unable to attend the Che
halls county fair and view the eX-
cellent agricultural exhibits shown
there, may enjoy a genuine treat by
viewing the handsomely decorated
windows of Bowes Brothers. real es-
tate dealers. The display is one Of
the most attractive ever shown in
the city, some of the best and largest
specimens Of vegetables and fruit ex.
hibited at the fair being secured for
this purpose.
A pleasing contrast is shown in this
exhibit and others about the city
where vegetables from various por-
lions of Oregon are shown. While
Chehalis county is not generally con-
sidered an agricultural county, the
display is equal if not better than
anything ever shown in Southwestern
