Show CATTLE EXHIBIT WILL FEATMATE FAIR American Jersey Cattle Club Show to be Given in Connection Connec-tion with Celebration The largest exhibition of dairy cattle in the history of the Utah state fair will be a feature of this year's celebration in Salt Lake City October 3 and 10. It is expected that the entries of jersey stock alone will more than double last year's record of 178 animals. The reason for this increase is that the American Jersey Cattle club with hearquarters at New York, has designated the Utah state fair as the 1931 western regional re-gional Jersey show. This will bring entries from the famous herds of the Pacific coast and the northwest as well as the inter-mountain inter-mountain country, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and other western states. WTith the designation of the Utah fair as the regional show, the national organization has added $500 in premiums to those posted by the fair board. It is also certain that this exhibit exhib-it will bring to the Utah fair hundreds of Jersey breeders, dairymen, and others from the coast and elsewhere. Hugh G. Van Pelt of Iowa will be judge of the jersey and guernsey show. Indications of the popularity of the Utah exhibition with the livestock men of the country is found in entries received to date. One is from the Lillard Stock Farm, Arlington, Texas, entering S5 head of hogs, and another entry en-try of ten hogs will be made by J. H. McAnaw, Cameron, Mo. An additional feature of the fair will be a horse show to be held in the coliseum on October 9 and 10. |
