FAIRS AND SHOWS IN
WHICH LAND PRODUCTS
APPEAR CAUSE INTEREST
These Potatoes Greater Than
Anything You Could Write,
Sinnott Tells Road Workers.

That fairs and shows in which pro-
ducts of the soil are the chief attrac-
tons are we'll worth while in sOmeth
.ng on which producers in Umatilla
county are all agreed. The success
which attended efforts of different
sections of the county this year in
their fairs and shows is one OF the
reasons why more and more attention
is being paid to this medium OF educa-
ton and advertisingk.
The Hermiston Hog and Dairy show
this year had the biggest premium
list il has ever had with interest in
exhibits and competitions keen. the
potatoes came in for its share of honor
when the Umatilla County Potato
show was held for the first time.
Weston is the home of this show,
which is expected to be an annual af-
fair.
The East End Apple show gave over
more floor space than ever before to
its exhibits and the interest are suffi-
cicnt TO cause the management to cN-
tend the time from two days, as orig
inally planned, to three days. New
departments were added which sharp
of the innovations was Il department
in which old relics and heirlooms were
displayed. Some of the garments and
household articles on display We're lis
years old, and quaint bits of history |
were unearthed by the stories the
owners could tell of their properties.
On Sunday, Congressman n. j. SIN
mott was at Weston to confere with |
the executive committee of the Blue
Mountain Highway association. While
there he was shown the exhibits of
potatoes and other farm produce
which had been on display during
the county show.
This display of products means
more than anything you can write
about the possibilities of this country"
Mr.. Sinnott declared, after he had
studied the displays.
The remark had Il particular value
under the circumstances, because the
Weston Mountain country where some
or the best seed potatoes in the state
are grown has been held back in its
development by a lack of roads. The
highway association with which Mr..
Slnnott was meeting is working for n
main road which will aid this section.

"A total Of 3,43S tractors was
sold in the prairie provinces Of Ca

sales of new machines in all sizes,
the largest proportion being includ-

and Is TO 80 horsepower was sold.
These figures indicate very
marked decrease as compared with
tractors sold I'm 1920. The number
Of machines sold in 1921 is slightly
over SO percent Of the total number
sold in 900. The decreased sale is
accounted for largely by the de-
pressed condition in the market for

the tractors themselves

were $4,000 tractors in western Can

OF DAYS during which each tractor
was operated in 1921 is given as
