Annual Northwest
Livestock Show

All conditions indicate that the
Annual Northwest Livestock Show
at Lewiston, the week of November
20. December 4, will be the greatest
in the history of that institution.
This opinion is based upon reports
received by the officers of the North
west Livestock Association. under
whose auspices the show is held.
These reports are to the effect that
larger number of animals will be
on display than has been the case
in the past, while the quality also
promises to establish a new standard.
Exhibits are coming from all the
principal sections of the four North
west states. The magnitude of the
show, which is now in it's seventh
year, can be judged by the fact that
at some of the past exhibitions over
5000 animals were on display.
Reports made by the railroads, based
upon inquiries received leave no
doubt that the attendance of people
will far surpass that of any previous
show
While the Northwest Livestock
Association comprises the leading
stockmen of the four Northwest
states and who unselfishly give their
time and means to the developement
of the show, they are receiving a
hearty cooperation on the part of
agricultural colleges and universities
and the presidents of Sc ,eral such
institutions will be on the speaking
program this year. Governors
Alexander of Idaho, and Lister of
of Washington will also give their
presence to the program, Governor
Alexander to deliver an address on
the opening day.
The Northwest Livestock Show
utilizes specially equipped grounds
east of Lewiston, these being served
by special train service during the
week of the show, and already work
is in progress there preparing for
the big annual event. The sales
feature of the show is again to be
prominent this year, with high grade
stock in all lines to be offered.
Secretary Smith of the Northwest
Livestock Association has given close
attention to the important work
assigned him and has been in the
field practically every day for the
past three months, arranging the
details of the big exhibition.

Mill Will Run Twenty
-Four Hour Shift
Cannot Supply the Demand
for Flour

A. w. Schmidt, the head miller
Of the Lewiston Milling Company,
and Chas. Bohles second miller of
the same firm, were in this city this
week starting the local mill. The
local mill has been thoroughly re-
modelled this past summer and it
is now equipped with the most
modern machinery for making -four.
Mr.. Schmidt informed the reporter
that the Kendrick mill was now in
a position to make as good flour as
any mill in the west and that it
would from now on run twenty
four hour shift, thus employing
about ten people all the time. He
says, the Lewiston mill has large
amount of orders ahead and that
this mill will have to help turn them
out. The first car of flour from this
mill was shipped Wednesday into
the state of Washington. The capa-
city Of the mill is now one hundred
and fifty barrels per day. The firm
has also built new runaway to
the tracks of the Northern Pacific
so as to be able to load their cars.
Mr.. Grice will have the mill in
charge and at present Mr.. Deeter
will be the night miller. This is
another mark added to Kendrick
advancement.
