"We bare every reason for being moat optomistic and enthusiastic," said Mr. Plummer in speaking of the 1920 ahow, "as we are receiving let ters, phone inquiries and calls in person every day, all showing a keen interest in the stockshow and eag- em ess on the part ot breeders and .8tock n"'r".' wrote Mr. Ward, "have stockmen to Uke an active part la!' Men Period when big livestock making this big Northwest Stock show a great success. The attrac tive premium list and the growing reputation of the Pacific Internatlon. al, which Is already known far and wide, as one of the foremost purely livestock shows of the country, has attracted the attention and enlisted the keen interest of breeders all I through the Rocky Mountain and Va- ctflc Slope states. Western Canada and many points In the Middle West and East. , ,".- ; "We will have with us again prac tically all the exhibitors who had stock at the show last year, many ot : them with larger and liner entries, J and there will be numerous new ex- i hibitors from all points ot the com I pass. We are now completing plans for extending both the beef and dairy barns, and will probably en large our swine and sheep divisions. We anticipate an increase of from IS to 30 per cent in the number of blue ribbon stock that will be attracted from all over the country to compete for the substantial premiums offered In all classes. The breeders every where are recognizing the high rank ot the Pacific International, and that the winning of a Pacific Internation al ribbon means something very much worth while. In addition to its great Intrinsic value to the breed er, our annual stockshow Is a splen did educational medium, the benefic ial effect ot which cannot be est! mated. Through bringing the flow er of the finest purebred herds in the country to our stockshow each year. and the line educational opportunl ties offered in various phases ot the Pacific International, more and more the farmers are coming to under stand the importance of scientific methods on the farm, and that if j they would prosper they must be i progressive and eliminate the un profitable scrubs and low-grades , from their farms, replacing them with the profitable high-grades and j CITY OFFICIAL PAPER FOR CITY OF PRINEVILLE 1 purebreds. Particularly ia this edu cational Influence valuable to the younger generation ot farmers and stockmen, who are receptive to the progressive ideas with which they are put In personal touch through the annual stockshow. The great need of the whole country for In creased production and tor the up building of the livestock Industry at this time gives tfca. Pacific Interna tional a very important mission, as was pointed out in a letter I received the other day from Vice-President R. A. Ward, ot the Firat National Bank of Bend. 'At no time in my experience In conection with live- shows had such a mission to perform as during the present season. Some thing must be done to drive horn the necessity of improving the live stock market and of stopping the wholesale liquidation of range sheep and cattle which Is now In progress. The Influence of the Pacific Interna tional should prove a forceful factor in thia work.' " - Mr. Plummer reports that some ot the world's greatest experts, men in ternationally famous In their respec tive breeding classes, have been se cured as judges and will come to Portland to tie the ribbons in the va rious classes. Among these judges will be William Hastnett, ot The Ar gentine. South America, one of the leading importers of that great cat tle raising country, who -will judge the Short-horns, and Albert Hill, of Alexandria, S. Dakota, one ot the foremost Hereford breeders who will tie the ribbons in the Hereford clas ses. Charles Gray, of Chicago, sec retary of the national Aberdeen An gus breeders' association, will make the awards for this breed. Letters received by Mr. Plummer indlcat an especially keen Interest in the beef breed entries, and expecta tions are that these classes will be greatly increased over even the won derful showing of last year. The premiums for the Short-horn classes total 18000, with $6000 each tor the Hereford and Aberdeen-Angus. Among the prominent Aberdeen- Angus exhibitors will be Dickson & McDowell, ot Prineville, who carried off a number of blue ribbons last year and who will have an even larg er number of animals on the ground to compete for honors this year. Mr. Plummer is endeavoring to persuade M. W. Biggs, ot Prineville, to bring some of his outstanding Short-horns to the show. Mr. Biggs topped the sales at last years' Pacific Interna tional when he bought a One Hercu les bull for $3, BOO. The stockshow NO.. management hopes to have this sni mal and several more from the Biggs herd on the entry list In the near fu ture. Attractive premiums are also of fered In the fat cattle classes. Pre miums for fat pure-bred steers, spay ed or Martin heifers will total $1 500, with $1,000 each tor the Here ford and Aberdeen-Angus breeds. The total premiums offered for car load lota of beef cattle will reach $1,175. Premiums in tha aheap classes will total $5,000, with ft 500 tor the swine classes.
