LIVE STOCK SHOW.
Fort Worth Making Extensive Ar
rangements for ~ Show.

When the first annual Fat Stock Show
of Texas was held at the Fort Worth
stock yards last year, it was demon
strated that there was in the state the
proper material for such display as
would do credit to any section of the
country, and because of the unqualified
success of the first attempt in that di-
rection. it was resolved by the citizens
and the Live Stock Exchange to repeat
the show this year on a grander scale
The short feed crop of last year, how
ever, interfered with that arrangement,
and it was thought best to postpone ac-
tion until this years crops We're assured,
which condition is now fulfilled Since
it became evident that a bounteous feed
supply would be made, the citizens and
the Exchange have been in constant con-
Sultation. and after much consideration
it was thought best to hold the next
show during the session of the Cattle
Raisers' association of Texas, which will
begin the second Tuesday in March, 1898
To that end, joint committees on pro.
| sisting of leading citizens of Fort Worth
and members of the Exchange. The
finance committee. consisting of w. G
| Turner. A. s. Reed. VIM. Caps, Martin
| Casey and w. e. Skinner, authorize tn,
program committee to offer $4,000 in casl
| in prizes.
There will be numerous classes o
thoroughbred with premiums therefor
| consisting of cash, cups, trophies medals
etc. all of which will be announced later
1t is the intention to make the cOmin
show the grandest thing of its kind eve
given south of the Mason and DiXo
line. and Texas feeders are urged to &c
in line. There is plenty of feed an
enough good quality stock to make
display of which the entire state ma
be proud, and the thousands of visitor
who will he here at that time should b
given an object lesson of the great pros
ress Texas has made in the breeding an
/ feeding of cattle, sheep and hogs. Flu
Their information concerning the sho,
, will be cheerfully furnished by ID.
Lively, secretary. Fort Worth, Tex.
This show in every particular is as fro
, as the winds. and everybody is urged
join hands to make it Il success.
