Show Livestock Show Entries Reflect Ardor Neil K. Boytor, secretary of the Southern Utah Livestock Show Association, sponsors of the an nual Southern Utah Livestock Show in Cedar City, announce that response from exhibitors for the 13th annual show to open on Sept. 10 has been unusually enthusiastic en-thusiastic this year. The show will run for three days on the College of Sotuherr Utah campus on Thursday, Friday Fri-day and Saturday, Sept. 10, 11 and 12, and promises to be the biggest and best in the history of the event. Because of lower market prices this year, auction sale prices will probably not equal those of some previous years, but the number of entries and the quality of the stock is expected to surpass that of any of the previous shows. Usually entries are just starting start-ing to come in at this time, but this year entries had equalled many of the previous shows two weeks ago, indicating a tremendous tremen-dous interest in the event by exhibitors, ex-hibitors, particularly 4-11 club members and Future Farmers of America. The program of the show will follow about the same as previous previ-ous shows, with the judging of all fat stock and judging contest to take place on the opening day. Judging of breeding stock will take place in the forenoon of the second day, with auction sales of breeding sheep and Hereford heifers taking place during the afternoon. The sale of breeding heifers becomes a part of the .show for the first time this year. The climax of the entire show will come on Saturday, Sept. 12, when youngsters who have exhibited their fat lambs, fat steers and fat hogs, will place them on sale, with every animal in the show to go through the auction ring on that day. Bill Adams, famed western auctioneer who has handled the auction sales during the past several years, will again be on hand, and lively and interesting bidding will be assured. |
