STATE FARMERS
CARRY OFF MANY
OF SHOW HONORS
MICHIGAN MEN CLAIM BIG MA
JORITY OF SMALL GRAIN
PRIZES AND WIN PRAISE

Pulling down far more than their
share of awards in all small grain
classes, and scoring practically a
clean sweep in certain fields, Michi-
gan farmers exhibiting at the Chica-
go international Hay and Grain show
last week brought home the lions
share of honors. The show, which is
held annually in Connection with the
famous international Livestock Ex-
position. is the biggest crops exhibit
of its kind in the country, competi-
tors from all over the United States
and Canada competing for the $10,-
600. prize money.
The first twenty-five awards for
exhibits on rye were pulled down by
Michigan growers, George HutZler,
of South Manitou, ranking first. Ro-
sen rye, Michigan variety develop
ed by the Michigan Agricultural Col
lege some years ago and now grown
all over the country, took 20 of the
80 prizes awarded for rye.
Another triumph for Michigan
came in the wheat judging. Red
Rock Wheat, state product, original
ed by the plant breeders at M. A. c.,
took 9 Of the first IA awards in its
class.
Fine showings were made by state
growers in other small grain classes
but the biggest victories were re-
corded in the rye and wheat fields.
Charles Laughlin, of Three Oaks,
took first corn honors for the North
ern District at the show, while A. w.
Jewett, Jr., of Mason, won second
place in clover hay.
An educational exhibit of Michi-
gan crops was one Of the outstand-
ing features of the entire show. This
exhibit. which was prepared by the
Agricultural college, showed the CO.
operation Of the college, the Mich
igan Crop Improvement Association
and the Seed Department of the
State Farm Bureau in developing,
producing and marketing fine quail
ity seeds. An idea of the diversity
and scope of Michigan crops was
given by the exhibit, which attract
ed the attention of thousands of Wis
itors at the big show.
J. F. Cox, head of the Crops De-
partment at M. A. c., A. L. Bibbins,
Secretary of the Michigan Crop I'm
provement Association; and H, c..
Rather, college extension specialist
in farm crops, were in Chicago all
week in charge of the Michigan ex-
hibits. A number of local farmers
and stock men were also there and
were enthusiastic in praising the big
show.
