WOOL AND SUGAR
Combine Sought
Senate's Close Vote Causes
Speculation Over House
Bills Fate.
CHANGES ARE PROBABLE
Walsh and Newlands Expected to 0p.
pose Free Wool When Vote
Is Reached.

Democratic members Of the Finance
Committee do not expect that their sub.
committees will complete their work or
the tariff bill by The end OF another week
The Democratic leaders are bending
their energies to have the tariff bill re.
ported back to the Senate not later than
June Is. They will feel gratifed II they
can get the bill into the Senate at Sc
early date. At least six weeks will be
required for debate in the Senate In the
judgment Of the leaders. This would
carry the Senate along until August / as
the earliest possible date for the passage
of the bill by the Senate. Allowance must
be made for. the work of the conference
committee of the two Houses. and for
closing up the affairs Of Congress. More
than one Democratic Senator, when ques-
toned as to the outlook for adjournment.
declared that he did not see any prospect
Of adjourning Congress before Septem-
Der l.
The time that is required by the sub
committees in their work on the bills
clearly indicates that many changes are
to be made. This probably will increase
the work of the Conference Committee
of the two Houses after the bill has
passed.
An interesting development in the
wool situation. which was being COM
mented on by the leaders yesterday, is
the attitude of Senator Walsh of Mon
tana, a Democrat. who is advocating a
revenue duty on wool. He has notified
Democratic members Of the Finance
Committee that IL an amendment Is Of
fered in the Senate to put a duty on
wool, that he will be compelled to vote
for 1t regardless of the attitude that
the caucus may take. Mr.. Walsh's vote
al - 90 flA Y ,T<,o
which would probably be cast for a duty
on wool, would make the Senate a tie.
This situation would not be SO bad
If the matter stopped there, for Vice
President Marshall. welding the decid-
ing vote, in case OF tie, would resolve
a doubt in favor of the administration.
But ii Is by no means certain that Sem
atOr Walsh will stand alone in his vote
for an amendment to put a duty on
wool. Senator Newlands is expected to
follow his example. and there may be
other Democratic Senators from wool
growing States who will feel obliged to
meet the issue in the same way that Mr..
Walsh has said that he would meet II.
when they are confronted with an amend
ment. More than one Democratic menu
her of the Finance Committee believes
that IL the Finance Committee or the
Democratic caucus does not put a reve-
nue. duty on wool. that the votes OF the
Senate will do IL.
There is less inclination to place duty
on sugar. Undoubtedly II the two Louisi-
ana Senators vote with wool Democrats,
they will be able to put the duty on
wool, but there is a possibility, some of
the Democratic leaders think. that the
sugar Senators and the wool Senators
may not be able to reach a working
agreement.

Western Washington Fair Best Ever Held

The Western Washington Fair held
at Puyallup last week proved to be
big success in every way. The Pacific
Coast fairs this year have been blessed
with exceptional weather and this was
no exception. The entire five days
was as perfect weather as has ever
been seen in the Pacific Northwest.
The attendance this year seems to
have broken all records. While we
have rot seen the official statement
of attendance, observation would lead
us to believe that it was one OF the
best attended fairs ever held in the
state. Unofficial statistics give the
attendance at II, 600.
SOME NEW BUILDINGS
The Association this year found it
necessary to construct some new
buildings, and appealed to the Ia.
coma business men who advanced one
half of the fund to erect Sl4OO ex-
hibition building which was used for
the automobile show and for the
school exhibit. This is one OF the
finest exhibition buildings we have
ever seen, being about the proper
heighth and we'll provided for lighting
purposes. The beauty of this fair Is
that the buildings are all in SUCH
close proximity that person can
reach them all without much walking.
The race track is but one-third mile
long, which brings the entire show
close together.
THE LIVESTOCK EXHIBIT.
The livestock exhibit was not as
complete as some of the other fairs OF
the state, but was good throughout.
The show of Duroc hogs was especial
" noteworthy. Other breeds OF hogs
we're not largely shown. AS usual the
dairy breeds led. The show OF
Guernseys and Jerseys was very fine,
though not large in numbers. The
show of Holsteins was good, though
not as large as was expected. The
Brewer Jesreys attracted great atten-
ton. The Guernsey herds of S. M.
Shipley and E. R. Brady attracted
hundreds of visitors. The Red Poll
herd of Mrs. Allward's was the only
dual purpose herd exhibited. 1t con-
tanned some very fine specimens.
The poultry show as usual under
Fred johnson was big winner in
every particular They have a splen-

port of some of the most successful
business men of Pierce county. 1t is
true that the financial returns in
many years have not been adequate
to meet the expenses, but the fair has
always been run very CONSERVATORY
and economically and the final result
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-10-01

is that it has made considerable
money which has been put back into
improvements. 1t is now one OF the
most firmly established fairs given in
the state and deserves the most en-
thusiastic support of every citizen OF
Western Washington.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1913-10-01

THE AGRICULTURAL DISPLAY.
The agricultural display was excep-
tionally fine and attracted a great
deal of attention. This was especially
true in the vegetable and fruit lines.
One of the striking vegetable exhibits
was that made by Mr.. Sommerville,
Manager of the Pierce county poor
farm. He showed hundreds of vari-
cites of the finest vegetables grown.
One of the attractions of this display
were three squashes, weighing lat, 126
and 80 pounds respectively. He also
had the finest display of pumpkins we
have ever seen in Washington. Other
displays in the agricultural building
which attracted great deal of atten-
ton we're the different communities
which took an active interest in the
fair. Among these that deserve par
ticular mention was the West Puy
aIlup community which had display
of vegetables which could not be ex-
celled anywhere. Sumner had one of
the finest fruit exhibits ever gathered
together in Western Washington.
There were hundreds of varieties of
apples and pears which would be
credit to any country. Other COM
munities which made remarkably fine
exhibits were Roy, Fernhill, Bay
Island and Orting.
The floral department contained
some beautiful exhibits, among which
was dahlia exhibit from VashOn
Island containing some 200 varieties,
an exhibit which would be credit to
any state Fair. The aster exhibit was
a beautiful one also.
EXPERIMENT STATION MAKES
NOTABLE EXHIBIT.
One of the most noteworthy exhib-
it's at the fair was the one made by
the Western Washington Experiment
Station. This occupied one-quarter
of one of the new buildings and was a
credit to the force at the station.
One OF the features was an exhibit OF
130 varieties of potatoes grown on the
farm in hills just as they were dug.
The weight of these ranged from 26
pounds down to six pounds. This
showing was an object lesson which
was most impressive. All kinds of
vegetables, grains and grasses were
shown, showing the amount produced
and in many cases the fertilizer used.
Another striking exhibit was that
showing nOxiOus weeds and pests.
In all these cases lot of valuable in
formation could easily be obtained.
There was a lecture room in the
building where lectures were given
every morning on agricultural sub
jects. These were we'll attended and
showed that the people are interested
In better farming methods. Alto
gether We think Superintendent
Linklater and his assistants should
have lot of credit awarded them.
The Woman's Department was as
usual filled with choice specimens of
woman's handicraft. The china de-
partment was exceptionally notable,
containing hundreds of pieces of fine
art work. The display of oil paint
ings was far above the amateur class.
SO far as the embroidery and similar
lines are concerned, a woman only
could do justice to their descriptions.
The baby show also drew lots of at
tention, and about 100 babies were
examined by the physicians.
THE ENTERTAINMENT
FEATURES.
The entertainment features of the
fair were we'll provided for, and while
the racing purses did not attract any
test in the running and driving class
that pleased the people.
