4-H Kid4 judge crops,stock
Unless a person is
knowledgeable in the was of ,the
4-H Club, he may be surprised
how the annual Huron County
livestock and field crop
competition is run.
The competition which was
held Saturday at the Seaforth
Fairgrounds was less a test of the
crops and livestock than a test of
the 4-H members and junior
farmers who participated.
In the morning, local farmers
showed their entires, and club
'members ranked the four entries
in each class in the order of
quality and wrote down their
reasons for that placing.
Len MacGregor, extension
officer for the Ministry of
Agriculture and Food, who
organizes 4-H activities said local
farmers who had purebred or
quality livestock or crops Were
asked to participate.
The Ministry of Agriculture
pays their trucking, and farmers
are happy to come, he said.
While 4-H members judged the
entries, they in turn were also
judged. All 4-H members must
attend, he said, but some clubs
sent a representative because
some of their fathers thought they
needed their sons to h ay or work
around the farm, he said.
He said he was pleased with
the turnout and said there are 162
competitors, the highest number
they've had in the last ten years.
There were ten classes and club
members had to judge entries in
every class. They also had an
identification quiz
The classes were dairy and beef
cattle, swine, sheep, hog
carcasses, beef cuts, corn, barley,
hay and horses.
anking the livestock and crops
is an exercise in juding. The
objective of this is to teach the
kids the skills of agriculture, Mr.
MacGregor said.
There are three sets of judges
who must decide on the official
judging. These are supposed to
be experts and most are 4-H
leaders, he said.
Junior farmers or 4-H members
from the age of 11-30 participated
but the majority were 4-H
members because the older ones
have usually learned the skills by
then, Mr. MacGregor said.
In the second half of the
program, a contestant is judged
on his reasons for any given
placing. This teaches them tc
organize their thoughts, and
support their reasons. Marks are
also given on tow they present
themselves, he said.

The pre-4-H class are kids
under 12 who have joined the
county 4-H clubs, but are not
allowed to become provincial
members.
This group are not allowed to
win trophies;The county 4-H has
allowed 11 year-olds to enter
since around 1970, Mr.
MacGregor said.
He said they were afraid they
wouldn't be anything more than
baby-sitters but the younger kids
seem even more interested and
put a greater effort than the
senior members who have other
interests such as dating, he said.
