Sfzcial To The Times. CROWN POINT. IND., Sept. 10. A few weeks a;o an effort was made to have an exhibit of Lake county livestock at the Indiana state fair this year. Time for making arrangements for this exhibit was very short and no effort whatever had been made for fitting livestock for such a show. However, one carload of Holstein cattle was sent to the state fair by three individuals from Lake county. These exhibitors were Jake, and Michael Seberger and Sam Woods. A total cf thirteen animals was exhibited and twelve prizes secured. Such a remarkable showing with animals not previously conditioned for the show tapenks very highly f r the Holstein interests ol this county. Sam Woods won second prize on senior bull calf and second prize on senior heifer calf, and was ion fourth and fifth place in the futurity class for Holstein calves where a class of more than fifteen w ere ( xh i !; t Michael Seberger won a total of four prizes on live anirr.als. These included second and third place in the Holstein futurity class. Mr. Seber;er also made a sale of one exceptionally fine bull calf at a price considerable in excess of what he would have received had not the animal been a state cnjr w-nn r. Ti " r era ion of the entire Ifolstcin show was the remarkable record n. . ly lie.-'he- Wyth. the pecon '., th" fourteen year old Holstein cow owned by Jake Seberner of Schererville. In a class of strong competition, this cow was immediately placed at the head of the line of animals by Professor Plumb, judge from the Ohio StaV University. This cow was not only Riven first prize in her class, but hs made champion in her class. f-n; "later grind champion Holstein cow of the show. Mr. Seberger won a number of other prizes, including fourth prize young herd. Lake county Holstein breeders deserve to have more publicity throurhout the country. There is no question but that as good animals cm be found in Lake county as anywhere in the country. rty thp breeders here mnUing an organized effort to let the world know what they have, some good prl- es may be secured for the animals being produced here. It is hoped that by m-xt vear we will be in a position to make an

oxhib,' at the stat" fair of two or r.i

carloads of animals from th county. The National Hairy Show is I ut a tew weeks away, and the dairymen of this county could do nothing better than to go in a body to this helpful, educational cxposit ion. Senator Thomas Grant of Lowell was the superintendent of the cattle department this year rr' 'he state fair, find the exhibitors of all breeds were unanimous in their opinion that Mr. Grant was the most able superintendent ever in -'nnrge of the work at the fair. Mr. Grant k pt things moving along 'l the time, so th'u the judging was done with dispatch. George Bailey, of West Creek township, judged the light horses, including the saddlers, penies and trotters.
