Young Farmers
Make Displays
CALVES, PIGS AND CORN SHOW
INTEREST OF CLUB MEMBERS
IN FARM WORK.

That the next generation of Red
wood County farmers is going to
make the present generation ssstep
lively" to keep out of the way, was
exemplified by the calves, pigs and
corn displayed by members of the
Boys and Girls. Club of Redwood
County at the Redwood County Fair
last week. These exhibits probably
attracted more close attention than
any other exhibits on the grounds,
this indicating the interest that both
young and old are taking in the work
which the children are doing. During
the Judging of the calves the barn in
which they were housed was crowded
with parents and teachers as well as
the children. A. A. Dowell judged the
calves Of beef types and H. R. Searles
the dairy breeds.

Clarence Steinlicht of Delhi took Sec
ond on his Angus calf, Anna Scanlon
of Belview took third on her Angus
Springfield took fourth on his Angus.
Of all the "good sports" at the fair
perhaps Emerson is the best! For
&hree years he has raised calf and
exhibited it, taking prize below the
third each time. But he has never
been discouraged because he hasn't
come out first, and has simply gone
ahead to raise little better calf the

valuable experience that will some
day bring him a blue ribbon or a
grand championship.
