Show INTER-MOUNTAIN STOCK SHOW SENDS GREETINGS January, 8, 1920. A Happy New Year to our friends of former years, and to those whom we hope to make our friends during 1920! In extending the season's greetings to the livestock men of the inter-mountain inter-mountain states, the officers of the Inter-Mountain Stock Show Association Associa-tion desire to express their sincere appreciation of past support, and to assure their friends that we hope to ! merit this support by making the I 1920 show the best and most helpful I one yet held in Salt Lake. j The growth of the Salt Lake Fat I Stock Show, which is now entering ' its fourth season, has been most in-1 tcresting and encouraging to those ' who have watched it. From an extremely ex-tremely modest beginning four years ago, there has been a conservative, ' steady increase in the number of exhibits, ex-hibits, the premiums, the attendance and all other features that go to make up a successful exhibition. The stock show has a distinct place and a certain value. It affords the best possible medium for an annual meeting between the leadens of the industry, a place where they may exchange ex-change views and experiences, mutually mutu-ally profiting thereby. It brings their choice stock to the attention of buyers and the public. It affords a friendly competition that promotes progress and prosperity. It focuses (he attention atten-tion of the public forcibly once each year upon a business which the public should understand, In order that it importance to the nation's welfare may br.' appreciated. More premiums, better exhibition facilities, more buyers from the country's coun-try's leading markets, East and West, are some of the assurances for the next show, which will be hold in April during Conference week. The only-other only-other requisite for success is the united uni-ted support of the stockmen. It is impossible for us to correspond with each personally, but it is sincere-1 ly hoped that they will realize the value val-ue of this well-established institution, and give their support accordingly. The 1920 premium list, together with detailed information concerning the coming Fat Stock Show, soon will be off the press, and copies mailed to stock growers. We bespeak for it your eurnest consideration, and hope that its receipt will be followed by early entries, so that proper preparations for the handling of exhibits may be made. Cordially yours, INTERMOUNTAIN STOCK SHOW ASS'N. 1025 Kearns Bldg, Salt Lake. |
