that there are 512 cubic feet in ton.
The length Of time a stack has been
built, the size of stack or the amount
it has settled, also the kind of hay
all influence the weight of certain

rules should not be relied upon unless
it is impossible to weigh hay when it
is sold.

The solution would be: Is plus &c,

LOCAL CANDIDATE
HAS FINE RECORD
Robert @. MacmahOn Has Had
Experience in Government,
Railroad and City Engineering

Robert @. Macmahon, of the High
lands, who is candidate for the Of
flee of county engineer on the repub-
lican ticket, is not widely known thru
out the county and even to the people
of Kennewick he is known only as a
good neighbor and citizen and a hard
working, conscientious man. Since
coming to this county Mr.. Macmahon
has not followed engineering work but
his record in other states is such as to
commend him to the voters of this
county.
During ten years of active exper-
fence he held important positions in
railroad, government and municipal
engineering work. From all of his
former employers he has strong let
tiers of recommendation, some of which
are published below:
Ex-Mayor C. F. Murphy, of Great
Falls, Mont, says:
"Mr. R. @. Macmahon has been in
the employ of the City of Great Falls
for the past two years as assistant
engineer and has given excellent ser
vice. He is man of good habits, and
I recommend him to anyone desiring
his services as being a most thoro and
competent municipal engineer"
w. S. Edge, assistant engineer of
the Hudson Railway lines, says:
"Mr. R. @. Macmahon has been on
my force since August, 1907, and has
had full charge of lines and grades
and inspection of the concrete lining
of our tunnels in Jersey City. In this
work he has had the supervision of
the placing of about nineteen thous-
and yards of concrete involving some
difficult work and I have found this
work uniformly excellent. I take pleas
ure in recommending him for similar
work and he is leaving my employ on
account of the general shutdown
which has taken place."
F. w. LaForze, assistant engineer
of the United States Army, writes:
"Mr. Robert @. Macmahon was en-
ployed under the Corps of Engineers,
U. S. Army, from 1903 to 1906 and for
the major portion of this time under
my immediate supervision. I found
him to be careful, conscientious and
trustworthy and can cheerfully re-
commend him for any job which he
says he can hold down."

have been provided for them and they
will camp on the grounds, with mess
tent to serve them meals and chaper-
ons and attendants to look after their
comfort. They will be the guests of
the fair, the idea being to emphasize
this educational feature. The canning
demonstration will be in machinery
hall and the stock Judging contests in
the pavilion.
In the county and district exhibits
the secretary is also gratifed to note
the wide interest that has been
aroused. Every section of the state
will be represented in the county con-
tests and with such range of display
as has not been known in the past.
The new grading rules stimulate inter-
est in the range of display by putting
the contest on the basis of 1000 points
covering exhibits in cereals, grasses,
fruits and vegetables. Each county
entering must qualify with at least 500
pOluCS W DC q COhCOStohO AOA VIC
prizes. The sum of 500 for each
county qualifying is set aside and the
purse divided pro rata on the scores
made above 500 points. There is an
indication that the competition will be
very keen and the horticultural and
agricultural exhibit large in conse-
quence. Nine local districts will COM
pete in like manner for a district
purse. These cover the whole of the
Yakima valley.
In the line of amusements the man
agement has not overlooked good
horse racing card. The association
this year has hung purses amounting
to $3.50 for the five days of horse
racing. These races will be run on
what is considered to be the best mile
track in the Northwest, and the early
closing cards show that the best
stables on the Pacific Coast and Can
ada will be represented in the speed
contests of the week. Monday, the
opening day, is given over to auto
mobile racing and some of the best
drivers in the contry will furnish the

MEASURING HAY IN THE STACK
Washington State Experiment Station
Gives Rule that is Accurate

Estimating the number of tons of
hay in stack by measuring is often
resorted to when it is inconvenient or
impractical to weigh it. It is impos-
sible to give rule for measuring hay
which is entirely satisfactory. The
following one has often been used,
states Professor E. G. Schafer, Of the
Washington experiment station at
Pullman, and approximates the cor
rect weight:
"Width plus over, divided by four
and squared, then multiplied by the
length and divided by 3D."
The above rule assumes that the
cross section Of a stack may be OBJ
tanned by dividing the width plus over
measurement by four and squaring it.
Stacks vary so much in shape that
this cannot be absolutely true with all

OUTLOOK FOR STATE
FAIR BEST EVER
Agricultural Displays Will be
Most Extensive and Amuse-
ment Program Good

County Agriculturalist L. M. Lamp
son and his committee of helpers have
already rounded up some very fine
specimens of farm products for the
county exhibit at the State Fair and
Indications are that this years exhibit
will be one of the best the county has
ever made.
Not only will this county's exhibit
be fully up to the standard of other
years but the fair itself promises to
be bigger and better than ever before.
The rsange of the display and the
preparation for entertainment exceeds
anything heretofore done in the his
tory of the institution according to
Secretary Frank Meredith, who is able
now, with the fair less than month
away, to know almost exactly what he
will have in the way of exhibits and
attractions. In the fir,t place the
state fair, which opens September 18,
will be more nearly of statewide in
terest than any other held in years
past because more counties of the state
will be represented than ever before
in the history of the state.
This is due first to the statewide
interest in the exhibits made by the
boys and girls club Of the state. Prof.
T. j. Newbill, who has had the work
in charge, says that showing will be
made from 81 of the 80 counties in the
state, that the club members from
these counties will be present at the
fair, bring exhibits Of their work and
enter the contests.
These boys and girls will be guests
Of the fair board for the week. Tents

American Sunday Magazine and the
leading daily newspapers.

for the automobile contests amount to
$1100.
Ferrullo's celebrated concert band
has been secured for the week and
will give two concerts daily. The
first will be at the grandstand each
afternoon during the races and the
second at the horticultural pavilion
each evening during the week. The
evening entertainment will be fea-
ture. The band will give two hours
concert free to all fair visitors and a
free moving picture show will be used
to supplement this program. The
films shown will be those exhibited by
this state at the Panama Pacific ex-
position at San Francisco last year.
They show the Industrial de-
velopment of the state in several lines.
The Hit Fireworks Co., of Seattle,
the firm that furnished the display at
San Francisco last year, has the con-
tract for the electrical and fireworks
display for the week. Five search
lights of 1000 candle power will be
used to illuminate the grounds and
make spectacular displays by throw
ing lights on streamers carried aloft
by box kites. On Saturday night the
fair will close with a grand fireworks
display including all modern appli-
ances for making pyrotechnic illumin-
alton. Many set pieces Of special de-
sign will be shown in the program.
