for making his market than to the
middleman.
In open competition of all states IN
the Union and umamy nations the
Inland Empire has received The bulk
OF the awards at the Panama-Pacitic
exposition. One state also of the
Northwest group has received the
grand prize for cereals and no fewer
than 513 medals on general agricul-
tural products-more than was
awarded to any state or nation,
more than to d half a dozen other
states in the middle west and south
collectively. This was only possible
through the state fair, for the major
portion of the exhibit which won the
world prize was collected through
the medium of the home fair and
was first displayed at home.
This is the Inland Empire year,
and encouraged by the successes at
San Francisco, and with desire to
help in building greater and more
prosperous country, many farmers
who have never before exhibited will
have their products at the fairs this
fall.
Our farmers should show more
pride in our section. Nearly every
one can exhibit something they have
produced this year that is creditable,
and thereby through bringing it to
the attention of the world at large
induce others to settle amongst u.s.
The call of opportunity comes to
every one from the management of
the Spokane Interstate Fair and Live
Stock Show, which this year is offer
ing $4,000 in cash prizes for the
week of September 10. Let's all try
for some of that money; we can get
it if we exert ourselves to do so. The
premium list has been issued, and it
is mailed free upon request TO the
secretary.
1t is time to save samples of
grasses and grains; later on enter
them for the exhibit in competition.
1t will encourage all of US to have
our town represented at the top of
the list of prize winners.

HOPE FOR THE UNEMPLOYED

With a large proportion of our
712,812 Italian males over 81 years
of age contemplating return to their
native land, and the western har-
vests calling for thousands of labor
ers, at last the working men who
have been jobless and destitute
since last autumn seem about to OBJ
tain an opportunity to earn their
bread. So great are the demands Of
the western farmers that the federal
department of labor has opened bu-
reaus of labor in 81 cities.
But when harvest is done and
next winter closes the fields, the
country will again be Uttered with
vast and wretched hosts Of men
employable but unemployed--unless
tho federal government undertakes
to secure jobs for the laborers just
as now it has undertaken to get
laborers for the jobs. Such sweep
ing remediable measures as federal
insurance against unemployment can
scarcely be hoped for. Public opin-
