NJ. Z. STOCK JUDGES POPULAR
Offieiated at Fifty.six Missouri Fairs
in 1914.

Live stock exhibited at fifty-six
county fairs in Missouri in 1914 was
judged by instructors and graduates
of the department of animal hus-
bandry OF the College of Agriculture.
This report was sent to the Board of
Curators of the University by Dean
F. B. Mumford of the College of Ag-
riculture yesterday.
Fifteen fairs were judged by in
structors and forty-one fairs by grad
yates and former students of the de-
partment of animal husbandry. The
judges spent 145 days judging the
5000 animals exhibited. The fairs
were attended by SSO.73S people.
This work has shown a wonderful
Development said Dean Mumford
this morning. In 1907 we first Of
fered to furnish judges for livestock
at county fairs over the state. The
idea was not favorably accepted by
the directors of the fairs. They did
not think that our men were capable
of judging their stock. The first year
only two fairs in the state were
judged In 1908 five fairs accepted
our services In 1909 we sent judges
to fifteen fairs. The number has in
creased every year since Now we
receive each year more applications
for judges than we can FILL"
These judges sent out to the various
fairs receive no pay from the fair d.
rectors.
