tire last week from the standpoint
Of quality and condition Of exhib-
It's was the best Of Its kind since

by Victor Willenbring was the fat
est calf Of the entire lot and with
the other two should make a cred

All club members over the coun-
ty who are interested in going into
the baby beef project for next year
will have the best wishes II they
make arrangements for getting
their next years calf at this time.
To do a good job with the baby
beef project 1t is necessary to feed
almost an entire year in order to
bring the animals to the show In
good condition. Condition is what
told the story at the county fair at
Sank Centre last week and this
will also hold good as far as later
shows are concerned. With an am
pie supply of feed in Stearns coun-
ty this year there should be no diff
ficulty on the part Of Club men,
bers to fatten their calves out In
good shape. If help is needed in
securing a satisfactory calf for
next year the county agents office
at st. Cloud should be contacted in
order that they might assist with
the arrangements. Last year the
Central Cooperative Association at
So. st. Paul with the county agents
office assisted club members in
Stearns county in getting desirable
All calves.
