Our Prices Are As Low As Any ******** Poultry Producers Give Us A Call When Yqu Are Ready To Sell Your Fowl CANADA @ PACKERS It's Big Job For Officials Staging a livestock judg- * ing competition for a record number of 266 junior farmers and 4-H members takes a whale of a lot of work. If you,don’t believe it, just ask the Huron County officials who organized the one at Seaforth on Saturday. Over 3,500 judging returns had to be scored and tabulat­ ed by authorities. Each, con-. testant submitted written placings on 10 classes of livestock and all of these . cards had to be marked. In addition, t h e, contestants gave oral reasons for four of the classes and judges had •to score each of these in­ dividually. The 14 scores of each con­ testant had to be recorded beside his name and totalled to declare winners. But that’s just part of the task of organizing the county­ wide competition. ' In addi­ tion, there’s the securing of judges and livestock, the or-, ganizing and instructing of ’ contestants, provision of lunch and many other minor details, Despite the enormity of the tabulation task,, officials had much of it completed Saturday afternoon.
