They will be held Friday along with other entertainment. Tingey, R.B. Money or Waldo Swenson will be glad to purchase an animal for anyone who contacts them. What if I purchase an animal just to help a boy or girl, but dont want to keep the meat9 This question has been posed on several occasions. This is the way most sales are made, according to the sale committee. As an example: If the market price of choice fat beef is 30? per pound, the committee makes arrangements with a packer to take the animals at that floor price. If an individual purchases the animal for 32? per pound, he will pay the premium price of 2? per pound and the animal is turned to the packer for 30y per pound. The individual gets the publicity for buying the ammal and the packer gets the animal. .The exhibitor who sells the animal receives the full amount of 32? per pound. The committee encourages anyone in- terested to contact them and they will explain it further and make all the ar- rangements, if desired. The complete schedule of events is as 97.
