Breeders of small herds of pure-
bred dairy cattle over Oklahoma
are lyecoming eager to take ad-
vantage of their opportunities to
exhibit their herds in competition
among themselves during a series
of 12 parish shows to tie held from
May 3 to 21. one of which is
scheduled at El Reno May 19. ac-
cording to H. G Keller, chamber
of commerce secretary.
Planned primarily as an educa-
tional demonstration for the small
breeder who lias not in the past
had an opportunity financially to
exhibit his herd in competition
with professional breeders and ex-
hibitors at county and state shows,
success of the El Reno event is
assured.
Tiie parish shows In Oklahoma
in no way compete witli the oounty
and state fair programs, but are
strictly one-breed affairs. each
lasting only one day.
One of the greatest advantages of
the shows is that they attract the
attention of farmers and farm
dairymen who never beiorc have
been interested in county or state
lairs

inudc by R. W. Stumbo. assistant
dairyman at Oklahoma A and M.
college, to obtain Carl Uuphress.
