State Fair News
How to take care of the swine exhibit
at tho Nebraska State fair is puzzling
the State fair management The 450
pens have been assigned to 86 exhibitors
and applications are on file for 150 pens
additional As about 1300 swine were
exhibited in 1901 to provide for all ap
plicants would mean an exhibit of 1800
head Truly Nebraska is in the front
rank as a breeder of registered swine
To erect barns of 150 pens capacity
would require an expenditure of more
than 8200000
Since the purchase of the fair grounds
all funds available have been used in the
erection of new barns for horses cattle
swine and sheep This year all the
funds available have been appropriated
for necessary accommodations in other
departments which have been patiently
awaiting the time when their turn should
come
The management feels that if swine
exhibitors would confine their entries to
animals for competition onlj it would be
possible to accommodate all such exhibi
tors To this end notice is given that
rule 17J will be rigidly enforced This
rule reads In Class C not more than
three 3 entries will be received from
one exhibitor for competition for any
one specified premium and all such
animals entered must be shown in
competition Under the circumstances
if it is possible for those to whom pens
have been assigned to use a less number
it would be a favor to all concerned to
relinquish all those not absolutely need
