Of Interest to County Swine Breed
erS.

The following circular letter, which
we print in full, will be of interest to
swine breeders of Obion County and ad-
joining territory;
Rives, Tenn, Sept. 20, 1910
Dear Sir; With the close Of the West
Tennessee Fair at Union City, Septem-
Der Il, 1910, closed one of the great
est thoroughbred hog shows ever held
in West Tennessee The show was a
success from every standpoint and it
should encourage every individual to
make an effort for better show next
season | have therefore concluded to
address a letter to every breeder in the
county, with the hope Of stimulating an
interest in fine hog raising.
The three leading breeds were well
represented, competition being strong
for the reason that each breeder showed
good individuals; and from this show
you would naturally conclude that Obion
County could be made the home OF some
famous herds. am therefore submit
ting a plan that hope will meet with
your approval SO that we can have an
even better show next season
| suggest that the various breeders in
Obion County and West Kentucky per-
feet a plan Of this kind: Before the
time for making up the catalogue for
the next fair, let each breeder act upon
this letter with suggestions or approval
of the plan herewith submitted 1t
would hardly be practical for the West
Tennessee Fair Association to furnish a
Judge of national reputation, but in
order to have show that will bring the
breeders hest results from an advertis-
ing standpoint, judge with reputa-
ton will be necessary, and in order that
we may secure Judge of this charac-
ter | suggest that each breeder exhibit
ing hogs at the West Tennessee Fair in
1911 include in his exhibit one pig un-
der six months old to be sold at pub
lie auction to defray the expenses OF the
Judge and auctioneer, and then allow
each breeder to bring, say five or ten
head of thoroughbred hogs to the fair
grounds to be sold at public auction on
the day of the hog show or the day fol- |
lowing, and in this way we can have
greater show and big sale Should /
some OF the smaller breeders or outsid-
ers want to offer something for sale we
can have same sold and charge them
on the sale, and in this way
he will be forced to help bear the ex-
penses.

plan to the officials Of the Fair ASCOT
