The students annual contest in
stock judging was held on, March %
and; %. The contest is held each
year at the close Of the winter term,
It being the final work in stock judy
ing. Four classes of stock were
placed thus giving each student a fair
chance and eliminating the possibility
Of having Glass in which one of the
contestants might be particularly
strong. <. &gs .i.s;.s..sl FL. ~ o

feeder and breeder of pure bred

runs large sheep ranch, placed the
Isheep. Or. Curyea Of st. Paul, at
present member of the Minnesota
farmers institute corps, judged the
horses and Prof. j. H. shepperd Of
the college awarded the premiums
for the hogs Each of these men are
experts in the capacity in which they
acted and each is SO well known that
lno particular mention need be made
Of the quality Of the work done. in
this part of the contest. Especial
mention should however be made of
the demonstration which DR.. Curyea
gave in the training of horses. A
nervous, snappy young horse gave
him an excellent opportunity to show
his methods of training and their
results.
There are many reasons why this
| was the most successful contest yet
/ held in the college. It has been
possible to give the students more
work since another instructor has
been added to the agricultural teach
ing force. More and better stock has
been available and some Of the men
experienced in previous contests were
in this one. Out Of 1875 students in
the stock Judging class, only the ten
having the best record were allowed
to enter the contest. Those who
reached this high standard were Will
