We addressed the B. Y. P. U. at EbI

LIVE STOCK AT STATE FAIR
This Years Entries Larger and Bet
ter Than Fever Before

Entries for the 1923 Ohio State
Fair live stock competition substan-
tiate the statement that Director of
Agriculture Chas. V. Truax, and State
Fair Manager G. r. Lewis made
sometime ago, that they intended to
stage the largest exhibits in the his
tory of the Fair at the coming show.
In the horse competition, three breeds
will be shown-Percherons, Belgian
and Clydsdales. The latter was adj
ded last year at the solicitation of
breeders who were interested in these
Scotch drafters, and so hearty was
the response, that place was again
made in the premium list for them.
Entries are we'll up to standard in
the regular classification, while the
two new offerings, Commercial and
police horses), are replete with many
high-class animals.
The entire cattle department totals
almost 10 per cent higher than here
tofore. Breeds showing increases
are Shorthorns, Aberdeen Angus,
OllCu AolOI CiIOliio, ooNiA
seys, Ayrshires and Brown Swiss.
The management shows eight
breeds of swine, and out of these,
there are only two that have fallen
below previous marks. A drive has
been made this year to increase the
size of this department.
The one department in which Ohio
leads the world is Sheep. Over 1000
animals will be shown in the judging
ring the week of August n, a mark
that is almost twice that of any other
sheep show ever held. Out standing
among the fourteen breeds, is the
Spanish Merino. Half Of the number
of this sheep in the United States are
within the confines of Ohio. 1t is,
therefore, interesting to note that the
worlds largest breeder of Merino
Sheep has entered a flock for the
coming competition. This is Mr.. j..
Blamer of Johnstown, Ohio, who at
present has four flocks touring the
country.
