"The Chicago show was operated at a financial loss, as we expected it would be," Mr. Van Dissel said, "but the ex- hibitors were highly satisfied with the results. Considering the opposition of The Chicago Tribune and the United States Land and Irrigation Congress, backed by that publication, our exhibi- tion was a magnificient success, and the Northwest was amply repaid in the splendid publicity it received in other mediums, notably The Inter Ocean, The Record-Herald, The Examiner, The American, The Post, The Journal, The Daily News, Chicago Commerce, Mor- rison's Chicago Weekly, The Drovers' Journal and hundreds of daily and weekly publications in the Central ; Many of the exhibitors sold their dis- plays to commission houses and depart- ment stores at good figures, while others disposed of their products direct to restaurants, hotels and fruit dealers.
