One of the most puzzling questions | in botany is, “Why or how does water rise to the top of a tree?” Various explanations of the phe- | nomenon have been proposed, but none is regarded as altogether satis factory. One investigator attacked the problem by means of interesting and novel experiments. for instance, |bhe constructed un artifictal tree of plaster of paris and found that water | moved upward fn it more than forty | feet high. Yet he was unable to base jany definite conclusion upon the re sults that he obtained, The water travels a large part of the way in a | film, between bubbles on one side and the wall of the conducting vessel on the other.

The management of the Lew- iston-Clarkston Tri-State Fair, Stock Show and Round-Up, has issued an announcement in which assurances are given that the coming exposition, Septem- ber 12-16, will be larger and bet- ter than before staged in the |central Idaho city. The premium lists were sent out in June and prior to that time the management was inter- ested in securing comprehensive {exhibits from the north Idaho and eastern Washington coun- ties. Much interest has been aroused in the matter of county exhibits and at the present time Boundary, Bonner, Kootenai, Idaho, Lewis and Nez Perce counties, Idaho, and Asotin county, Washington, are collect- ing exhibits to be entered at the Lewiston fair for the liberal cash premiums offered. The management is offering | $2,000 for livestock in the open entries and $600 for the exhibits of the Boys’ and Girls’ clubs arid | the entries already received give | assurances of a splendid live- stock exhibit. A report last week by H. A. Stone, state club leader for the ten north Idaho counties, shows that not less than 100 boys and girls will com- pete for the prizes in their classes. The United States Depart- ment of Agriculture will have a very complete exhibit showing the result of the researches by the government agricultural ex- perts and this will be supple- mented by exhibits by the Forest Service and the U. S. Bureau of Public Roads. The U.S. exhibit promises to be one of the very interesting and one of the very instructive features of the com- ing exposition. The fair management is sur- rounding these substantial set- tings with a program well fil- led with entertainment and amusement features. The best racing horses on the northwest circuit will be brought to Lewis- ton this year. The Indians will have a very important part in the afternoon programs and a complete offering of wild-west stunts will be staged daily by the best performers in the west. The best bands available will furnish the daily music and there wili be special entertain- ment features offered before the grandstand each afternoon. Notice of School Election.
