The season is at hand for the an
breeder, whs ther large or small, should
select the best birds and take them to
the show. The showroom is one of the
greatest educators for all poultry rais-
ers and it takes the combined efforts OF
all to make good successful show. We
all learn from one another, and never
know how good our birds are until we
take them to the show, compare them
with others and let The Judge pass his
opinion on them. If you have good
birds show them. The more birds on
show the stronger the competition, the
more successful the show, the larger the
attendance and the more sales it means
for all breeders. II you expect to get to
the front you must get in line; take
your birds to the Holt County Poultry
show to be held in Oregon, December
20 %.
