swine breeders from all sections of Minnesota and northern Iowa are already sending in their entries for the official Minnesota state swine show to be held at Albert Lea Aug. 19 to 23. This rush of early entries seems to be to insure their reservation of pens for exhibits, according to Cliff Cairns, secretary of the show. Entries are arriving much ear lier than usual for this first postwar official Minnesota showing of purebred breeding swine. Many breeders who were unable to show during war time because of help problems and other restrictions, are now getting their herds ready for the show ring.

The first entry for the show was received from Juhl Brothers of Luverus, some time ago. Among other prominent breeders known to be making plans to ex hibit is O. A. Brackey, Lake Mills, Iowa. The Freeborn county fair board along with the other sponsors of the show including the Albert Lea Chamber of Commerce, and Wilson Albert Lea, are pro ceeding with special plans to insure fine facilities for the extremely large exhibit of outstanding purebred hogs expected.

A number of National Swine Association secretaries and field men have already indicated their plans to attend this state showing of purebred breeding swine. There has been a slight change over last year on the days on which various breeds will be judged. This year the Duroc and Berkshire breeds will be judged on Tuesday, Aug. 20 by Bob Grummer, who heads the swine department at the college of agriculture for the University of Wisconsin. On Wednesday Aug.

21 H. G. Zavoral from University Farm, St. Paul, will judge the Hampshire and Chester White exhibits. That same day, Bob Grummer will judge the Spotted Poland China and Poland China exhibits.

Again this year the Minnesota State Fair Association is awarding a special trophy to the premier exhibitor of the show. This is a special and very coveted award that has been given each year by the state fair since the official show was transferred from the Minnesota state fair grounds. Increased interest will be noted this year in the awarding of this trophy as well as other special awards to be made at Minnesota's largest official showing of pure bred breeding swme.
