that the South Dakota State Fair and
Exposition, Sept. 10th to 18th, is offer
ing large premiums for pure bred hogs
of the common breeds.
There is so much interest in hog
production in this territory that it is
safe 70 say that the greater portion Of
the best exhibits will be purchased at
private sale by South Dakota breeders
who wish to raise better hogs. The
fair is encouraging this practice in
every way possible, and has just COM
pleted one new swine barn to add to its
already extensive facilities for caring
for the exhibits in this department.
That the swine exhibit at the South
Dakota State Fair and Exposition will
be much larger than any previous year
is evidenced by the large entries in
the ~Duroc-Jersey and Poland China
Futuritics which closed March 18th.
Sheep specialists believe that sheep
can be grown at a big profit in this
part of the country, and the state fair
board is offering liberal premiums to
owners of pure bred sheep of the lead
ing breeds. Every opportunity will be
given farmers to purchase breeding
stock. Sheep production in many of
the warning nations which have been
supplying this country with wool, has
FALLEN off to such AN extent that it is
difficult to buy wool abroad. So much
wool will be required in the making
of uniforms, socks, overcoats, blankets
and other parts of the new army
equipment, that it is feared a wool
famine will result. A few sheep can
be raised with profit on any farm. A
new sheep barn has just been built to
aid in caring for the large exhibit of
which we have been assured.

TOtaling Nearly
Twenty Thousand Dol
lars Offered.

South Dakota beef cattle recently
broke the worlds record in the sale of
forty head to the Armour Packing
company at $14 per hundred. This
price was the highest ever paid at the
stock yards in Chicago. During the
past decade South Dakota has been
very active in the Improvement of
the live stock industry, and the South
Dakota State Fair has been no mean
factor in bringing this about. Each
year the fair has been the means OF
assembling the best show stock in
the country, a considerable amount OF
which has been purchased by South
Dakota breeders. Tire fact that a ce-.
tain animal does not win the blue
ribbon is no indication Of inferior
Fair it is in competition with the best
stock in the country, and the fact of
its being shown here is an indication
of it's high quality, for breeders have
learned the futility of trying to win
with ordinary stock at this show.
In addition to the regular classes
which are open to the world there are
state classes for the following breeds;
S~horthorns, Galloways, Herefords,
Aberdeen-Angus, Polled Durham, Red.
Polls and Holsteins. The American
associations of these breeds, together
with the American associations of the
following, offer special premiums
Brown Swiss, Ayrshire and Jersey.
The live stock industry in South Da-
kota is not by any can confined to
the raising of cattle, for some of the
very best horses that go to the East
ern markets come from this state and
command the highest market price.
The exhibit of horses alone is well
worth the trip to the fair. From all
indications this exhibit will be greater
than ever before. For all registered
breeding draft horses owned and kept
in South Dakota who win in open
class against competition from out
