Keystone
The 16th Keystone In
ternational Livestock Exposition
closed last Friday at the Farm
Show building amid the usual
declarations of "bigger and
better than ever before.” It was.
With more than 125 champions
and literally hundreds of first-in
the-class blue ribbons it is dif
ficult to pick out the most
singular triumph but certainly
Bedford County must be standing
a little taller.
It was also Pennsylvania’s best
finish among the beef breeding
classes being able to come up
with only a couple of reserve
grand championships in the other
breeds Falkland Farm also
showed the champion heifer calf,
reserve junior bull and the best
six head

and all of the other states entered
were lost in a flurry of ribbons
that headed toward Ohio. Penn
sylvania State University was the
lone premier exhibitor in the
state out of judging that covered
11 breeds. PSU scored in the
Southdowns where they also
showed the champion ram. Mrs.
Milton K. Morgan, 1916 New
Holland Pike, Lancaster County,
exhibited the champion Suffolk
ram
In carcass classes Penn
sylvania came out of the on-foot
judging with the grand champion
barrows, a Yorkshire-cross
entered by Reno Thomas. That
didn’t serve the on-rail
evaluation but a lamb carcass
entered by H Thomas Van
Wagner, Dauphin, moved up
from fourth-place in the live
judging to the grand cham
pionship carcass wethers.
This is not strictly a red meat
show as juding of horses was
involved in six days and nights of

This week-old pig’s stomach is exactly this size. The
little dry feed it takes to fill this tiny “fuel tank” must
be LOADED WITH POWER!
Purina Pig Starters
give your pigs EXTRA protection
for about '/zCper day
It takes mighty little dry feed and sow's milk to fill the
tiny “fuel tank” of a baby pig from the time he’s a week
old until he’s three weeks old. An average of about an
ounce a day of loaded-with-power Purina Baby Pig Chow
or Purina Early Weaning Chow is all it takes to give him
extra energy, fast growth and disease protection.
This extra protection during this critical period costs
about y 2 cent per pig per day! That's low-cost insurance
to provide pigs with the “built-in” livability, the grow
and go power, offered by Purina starters.
Pigs love Purina Baby PigChowand Purina Early Weaning
Chow, too-and that’s Important, for it makes no differ
ence how great a pig starter may be, if pigs won’t eat it.
Let us help you get your pigs off to a thrifty start with
Purina Baby Pig Chow or Purina Early Weaning Chow.
Stop in and see us soon.
