This event now promises TO become
the most Important and most vital
event OF its kino ever held in the
Northwest. Last year, meeting was
a surprise to many but this wear We

HE sales features have been better

vertising and field notcs which APP
pear in this issue than could be done
10y us i'm our limited space. We mere
ly wish to add that these will be
the criterion sales of the year.
Nothing but the tops of the contrib
utors' herds are allowed to enter. 1t
VIII be no rumlnage sale, but each
breeder understands that what he
contributes will he taken by the pub
lie as the measure of his quality at
home.
The program i'm detail has not been
prepared for publication yet, owing
to the fact that many OF the partici-
pants are tardy in responding to Sec
Rotary Wilson, but it will appear in
the next issue OF the Dakota Farmer
and there will be enough to spare
for the week. The material will
come from the breeders themselves
and it will be their meeting from
start to finish. One feature alone
on the swine program will be worth
d trip to Mitchell and a weeks stay
to anyone who is interested i'm pure
bred hogs. Last winter during the
swine meeting and at the close OF p.

queSted that he tell the audience how
he breeds. rearS and tits his show
hogs. He stated that time would not
permit but that he would at some
future meeting. Secretary Wilson
informs us that Mr.. Peterson will
discuss every phase of his show X
perlence for the benefit of such as
haze had less of it than he. There
are few show men that will, as it
We're, "give away the secrets of the
trade but Mr.. Petersen is liberal

Others will ultimately help him and
the whole industry and cheerfLlly

And there will lie many other spe-
c~laiisls in thei1 line-the whole state
will be represented and some from
the outside.
The state poultry show will be 60
ing all through the week, the sheep
men will meet, the same with the
horsemen, the cattle and swine men,
etc. We have not been notified
whether the state dairy association
will meet at the same time and place
or rot, but it is likely. 1t will truly
be a general Ground up" Get your
