1t was decided that no entry fee
would be charged on grains, so that
any farmer living in Shiawassee
county may exhibit any grain he has
produced.
The Shiawassee County Farm
Bureau, feeling that the production
of better grains should be encour-
aged in the county, voted $500 to
be used as prizes on grains.
Prof. j. F. Cox of Michigan Agri-
cultural College, will judge the
grains and will give an address on
certified seed growing.
