Many notable exhibitors have reserved space and will be in with entries of finest breed and quality. Just enough time will elapse between be-tween the Oregon Fair and the Utah Fair to make it possible for exhibitors of national importance to transport their entries to the Salt Lake Fair grounds. This fortunate for-tunate circumstance is expected to augment the Livestock exhibits to a degree that will put space at a premium. There will also be champion cham-pion entries from several other states. Judges of national importance will be employed to make the awards in the various divisions of the livestock departments. Such celebrities as J. H. Riley of Thor-ton, Thor-ton, Ind., will judge at the big show. The cash awards will this year be greater intotal amount than ever before. The increase is made to meet the new ruling of distributing prize money out to sixth and seventh places. There will be more breeds exhibited than in any former year of the State Fair. That the Utah Fair has by far the largest livestock department of any state exposition in the west, was the statement of Mr. Richards. Its facilities for exhibiting are also among the best. The two recently constructed stock show buildings, one for dairy and one for beef cattle, cat-tle, are not excelled by any in America. The ventilation and lighting are said to be unique. Small exhibitors have exactly the same privileges and opportunity to win as the larger ones, said Mr. Richards. It is the determination of the Fair Association to treat all exhibitors with utmost consideration considera-tion and send them away pleased with the treatment they have received. |
