Yakima Exhibit Aims For Creditable Portland Fair Showing
Mr F Walden of Yakima selected by the Commercial club to oversee the Portland fair exhibit says a 12 by 40 foot space will display 175 boxes of apples in cold storage. He aims to ship fresh fruit as available and seeks local growers to loan or donate specimens with payment offered if affordable. Walden believes a strong exhibit plus club literature will advertise Yakima Valley effectively and attract cooperation from regional growers.
