General rules apply to vegetable entries
Home gardeners who like
competition can begin prepar-
ing their best vegetable pro-
duce for local judging competi-
tion at the Morrow County
Fair.
The first tep in entering
vegetables in fair for judging
competitio ns is getting a copy
of the Fair Book, which con-
tains exhibition rules for
vegetable . The 1995 Fair books
are available from the Fair of-
Columbia Basin Electric Co-op
Ezffftd, our congratulation, and best wishes to all participants in the
MORROW COUNTY FAIR AND
OREGON TRAIL RODEO

fice and the Extension office.
Follow the specific rules for
exhibiting vegetables.
Here are five guidelines for
selecting winning vegetables
used by judges:
Trueness to type-this simply
means electing vegetables that
look li ke they're supposed to.
For example, tomatoes are sup-
posed to evenly round, so
don' t select one that is oblong
and looks like a squa h in
hape.
Quality and condition-fair
judges look for vegetables that
are at their best for eating.
Select normal-sized vegetables
that are read y to serve. Vege-
tables scarred by insects should
not be entered. Also discard
vegetables marred by disease,
rough handling or careles cul-
tivation.
Uniformity-entry vegetables
should be similar in size,
shape, color, texture and stage
of maturity.
Size-contrary to popular opi-
nion, large entries do not have
competitive edge over other en-
trie (except for special entries
s uch as largest pumpkin,
watermelon, or head of cab-
bage ). Largeness suggests
coarseness, overmaturity and
possible poor quality. Medium-
sized vegetables are more typ-
ical of a variety and mo t de-
sired .
Cleanliness-dirt detracts from
the natural attractiveness and
conveys an unfavorable im-
pression to judges and the
public.
