State Fair notes show record premium list distribution
The State Fair Commission mailed over 2,500 premium lists to exhibitors and visitors in Washington and neighboring states, including 350 to poultrymen in Washington and many to Oregon and California breeders. Premium lists also go to dairymen, creamery men, and sheep swine cattle and horse owners nationwide. Notables include John Sparks of Reno who will carload Hereford cattle and Parlin Orendorff of Portland with Cantondisc harrows, while last year’s vendors expect higher prices and new attractions are planned.
