nets Show, where more than 2(),(l()() 

 people daily view the displays. Appli- 

 cations for space have been received 

 from many concerns, and by Septem- 

 ber 1st the success of the second annual 

 show was assured. More than 4,;)(I0 

 members of the (Chamber of Connneree 

 are taking a personal interest to make 

 the exposition the greatest of its kind 

 ever staged in the West. Industrial ex- 

 hibits will be arranged in the Armory 

 and a temporary structure covering 

 more than a city block will be erected 

 to house the soil products. 



Special prizes will be awarded for 

 apple and potato displays, and the best 

 individual farm exhibit. The exhibit of 

 apples at this year's .show will be a 

 feature. Announcement is made by the 

 [.and Products ("ommittee of the expo- 

 sition that more than two-thirds of the 

 counties of Oregon will send exhibits 

 to Portland, and after the holding of 

 the State Fair there is a possibility of 

 having a display of some kind from 

 each of the thirty-five counties in the 

 state, as well as from sections of Wash- 

 ington and Idaho, especially the Wash- 

 ington counties in the Columbia River 

 watershed. The transportation lines 

 are co-operating to make the exposition 

 a success, and low fares for the lound 

 trip will prevail while the show is in 

 progress. 



The Mutual Creamery of Utah is i-e- 

 ported having announced that the> will 

 purchase 20,(1(10 cows for the State of 

 I'tah during the next twelve months. 

 The dairy business is proving a profit- 

 able diversity line for the fruitgrow- 

 ers. There are reasons for this. 

 Orchards produce better when the 

 nitrogen supply and humus content is 

 maintained in the soil, which can be 

 done by producing cover crops of 

 clover, alfalfa or vetch, which in turn 

 will furnish feed, according to the size 

 of the orchard, sullicient to maintain 

 good-sized dairy herds. 



Philadelphia jjapers are reported as 

 strong on the idea, "Direct from the 

 grower to the consumer." That may 

 be all right and undoubtely is in a 

 small way, but the Northwest would 

 have a bia .job if the individual grow- 

 ers would tackle the problem — each 

 one finding for himself consumers to 

 purchase his crop. A few growers can 

 do this in a small way in nearby mar- 

 kets, but when it comes to moving 

 15,000 carloads of apples which have 

 to go under ice that is another prob- 

 lem. It will be a long day befoi-c the 

 grower can do away with either the 

 dealer or the retailer. 



.lohn B. Cancelmo of Philadelphia, 

 Pennsylvania, one of the high-class 

 fruit dealers of the United Slates and 

 one of the most popular men in the 

 trade, in a personal letter to the editor 

 reports the International Apple Ship- 

 per.s' convention as being the greatest 

 and most successful meeting ever held. 

 Mr. Cancelmo is one of the largest 

 handlers of boxed ajjples from I he 

 Northwest in Philadelphia.
