A M©c©]rdl Poultry SIhi®w
Oklahoma Stat© Pcraltiry Evenut at ffaskog©©
Quality was the outstanding fea-
ture of the Oklahoma State Federa-
tion poultry show, held at Muskogee,
November 30 to December 5.
There have been two or three state
shows held in Oklahoma where a few
more birds were entered than on this
occasion, but the concensus of opin-
ion among disinterested spectators
was that all of the previous events
were clearly outclassed in the matter
of quality. Besides being one of the
largest, the Muskogee show was the
best ever held in the state. Compe-
tent judges declared the show as a
whole was the best ever held in the
west or southwest.
Think of single chickens being
worth two hundred and fifty dollars!
A chicken is like anything else in
that it is worth what you can get
for it, and there is little question
that Judge Jackson could get $250
for his sweepstakes Rhode Island
Red cockerel. But the chances are
that he would not consider such an
offer. And there were other "birds,"'
—plentifully sprinkled throughout the
exhibit—which are in the $100 class
or better. A number of them were
insured for $100 each. If there were
any poor birds in the show, the In-
terstate Farmer representative failed
to locate them.
Probably nothing illustrates the im-
proving quality of Oklahoma poultry
better than the fact that a large
number of entries from other and
older states—entries which not long
ago would have taken first place in
an Oklahoma show—did not get into
the running at all; they were out-
classed by entries made by Oklaho-
ma people.
The judges were C. P. Van Winkle,
of Dallas, Texas, H. C. Dipple, of
Indianapolis, Indiana, and Chas. V.
Keeler, of Winamac, Indiana. When
they arrived, these judges were as-
tounded at the quality and arrange-
ment of the show, and after they
were through with their work they
unanimously agreed, and signed a
statement to the effect, that in the
Rhode Island Red, White Rock, White
Orpington and Leghorn classes they
had never witnessed a better show
in America—and they are all nation-
al judges, and know what they are
talking about.
The principal credit for pulling off
this greatest poultry show ever held
in Oklahoma is due. to S. J. Ander-
son, superintendent, Judge C. L. Jack-
son, president of the association, and
A. G. Harmon, secretary. These men
know the fine poultry business if
anybody does, and they are past mas-
ters in the art of staging a show.
