HARRISBURG Draft horses
will compete for the first time in
the 27-year history of the Keystone
International Livestock Exposition

Wednesday at the Farm Show
Complex, according to state
Agriculture Secretary Penrose
Hallowell.
“The addition of these
magnificent animals to the
schedule of competition promises
to make the 28th edition of KILE
the best show ever,” said
Hallowell, noting that an estimated
100 entries, including Clydesdale,
Belgian and Percheron horses are
slated for judging in the large
arena on Wednesday.
The draft horse entries boost the
total number of animals entered at
KILE over the 3,150 mark.
Sheep class entries account for
over one-third of the total entries
with 1,756, compared to 1,536 in
1983. Beef cattle entries numbered
735, compared to 788 last year,
while swine entries totaled 556,
over the previous year’s total of
505. Contestants will vie for $85,000
in premiums.
