The early (Nov. 6)
deadline on entries for
livestock and dairy cattle
was essential to the Farm
Show staff in planning the

required to properly house
them, makes it virtually
impossible to lengthen the
entry period beyond early
November, the commission
said.

deadlines as follows.
Dec. 1: turkeys; open and
junior class capons, broilers
and roaster chickens; safe
tractor driving contest.
