Chicago Next Year

Chicago Next Year
As result of last weeks action n
Chicago by the Breeders organiza-
tions which met in that city, An Int .r-
national Livestock Exposition in 100
is assured, and the inCere- ed visito
will view a display of live stock on foo
and dressed, packing house by-products,
feeding appliances, daft horses
and otner things pertinent TO the live
stock world never before attempt
ed.
Chicago W II have the wo.l1 know,
says the secretary Of the exposition,
that the interefts of tie 'eeder, the
breeder. the packer, the commission
~ An, the railroads, and the man who
Eats meat and uses his friend, the
b ,rse, to assist him in making q live
lihood are interdet endept, aud th at all
the interests can be brought together
in great exposition.
The Union Stock Yard and Transit
company OF Chicago, and allied inter-
ests, put the plan on foot, and The
breeding associations, which met in
thusiastic cooperation.
Much enthusiasm was unaffected
throughout the meeting, and that the
entire exposition will be succe-sful ia
certain. The Angus association ap-
propriated $1,000 to be offered for
premiums on that breed. The Short
Horn association sets aside SIS, 900 The
Hereford association devoted IS, coo to
hat breed at the show. The Polled
Durb anne, the Red Pooled and The Gal
loway associations offer 81 600 ach in
premiums, and the Cots void Sheep as
sociation $500.
The live stock interests of Chicago,
together with the business element re-
presented in other lines will put up
| from S25, 900 to $50, 600 to be divided
| among the breeds and the fat
| stock.
Great sales will be made of each of
| the breeds at the show, and IL b as been
determined thai the noted royal show
and sale event of gland will be
eclipsed. The central idea of the
| NOV ment Is to establish at Chicago
| { ach year an exposition which will be
tru.y exponent of the live stock in
terests of North America.
The time is ripe 1t is BELIEVED for
such action. and those 1T the head of
the international Live Stock Exposi-
ton. comprising in addition to the ex-
ecutive and directory the presidents
of all the recoR nized pure blood as
socis tiOns in the United S ate g, Canada
| and other countries, warrant its sue
cess.
Efforts will be made to secure the at
tendance of buyers from all
the south American repuO-
lies, in one of which recently
over $4,000 in gold was paid for Al
English thoroughbred bull. Represen-
taCion will be ask ed from ali of the cat
lie, sh eep, and hog record associations
in Europe. Germany has already pledg-
ed represe ntatives.
It need not occasion surprise If q
number of the best animals offered at
the sales are taken to Their
countries. The South American trade
which riRhtfully belong to the breed
ers of this country can be secured by
such efforts. Besides, the presence of
Representatives of oth-r governments
will do much to remove WI at pre-
Ijudices now exist against American
beef, mutton and pork, and thereby
enhance values throughout this coun-
try.
Buyers from all parts of the world
and especia ly from every state in the
Union will be present at the sales,
which will be made an im por'ant part
lof the exposition. Feeders and
breeders all over the country are
urged by the management of the Inter-
national Live Sock Exposition TO
wrl te at once for any information tn ey
may desire aud to begin feeding som e.
thing for exhibition.
