A tribute to the cattlemen and brandowners of the Okanogan

Livestock have been marked to prove ownership andprovide separation for more than 3,000 years. Owners ofregistered brands are rightfully proud of their own and havea deep respect for the brands of others.

The brands of the American west were designed tomake it difficult to duplicate them quickly but rustlers with“running” irons made a living altering brands and sellingstolen cattle.

The family brand is revered on the same level as thefamily name. It is with that pride we present the brands ofthe Okanogan.

VEGETABLESDEPARTMENT BYOUTH & ADULT

No exhibitor will be permitted to make more than oneentry in any one lot unless of a different variety (exhibitormust identify variety on judges' card on the line marked"Exhibit Name".)

Suggestions for Fruit and Vegetable Exhibits1. Fruits and vegetables are generally judged according to

size, quality, color, trueness to variety, freedom fromblemishes, and uniformity of size.

2. The best size to select is not the largest nor the smallestbut the one which most properly represents the varietyand is of the size and shape normal for the varietywithout irregularities in form.

3. Quality should be of the highest. Fruit and vegetablesshould be mature, should generally retain their stems(unless otherwise specified), and must be free frombruises and broken skin or any visible imperfection.Fruits and vegetables on each plate should be asuniform as is possible to select.

4. Color should be characteristic of the variety. Color maybe brightened by polishing with a soft cloth. Prunes,plums and grapes should never be polished and onthese it is best to retain all the natural bloom possible.

5. Trim tops, stems and roots as stated for the class youare entering.

6. Please give the correct name of the variety entered.Example: Tomato “Early Girl”.

handouts.4. Educate on new crazes or trends like fleece throw tying,
