Jeff and his brothers, Tim

together when they show
their hogs, and Last year
Joe's animals took the grand
champion title of the show.
Whereas the dairy show
had a smaller turnout of
animals this year, the swine
show entries went the other
direction. Forty-eight head
were shown, which is a
larger amount than last
year.
“The quality of the top
animals is very good,”
remarked Henkel.
The results of the show are
