President’s Message

Dear Stock show Participants:

In just a few weeks we will all gather again to participate in the 75th

annual Southwest Livestock Show and Sale. It is an exciting time of

year and we look forward to seeing you and your exhibits and hope

you feel fulfillment from your participation. We encourage you to

start now grooming not only your animal but also potential buyers. As

you and your parents do business at various establishments ask the

manager if they support the Livestock Show and encourage them to

do so.

Make sure you check the dates to properly submit your application

and make certain you are available on the dates of the show to

participate fully!

Thank You for your participation and Good Luck!

Sincerely,

DeLynn Barton

President

SOUTHWEST JUNIOR LIVESTOCK SHOW

RULES AND REGULATIONS

1. The Show Management reserves the right to interpret all rules in a manner which

will be in the best interest of the show.

GENERAL

1. Age: Exhibitors must be in the third grade, but not less than 8 years of age as of

January 1 of the current year. Exhibitors can only show through the same season as

their high school graduation, but not past their 19th birthday.

Exception: Disabled persons as defined by Public Law 98-527. In these special cases,

animals must still be the project animals of the exhibitor and be cared for daily by the

disabled person.

2. Group Affiliation: An exhibitor may enter our show only as a 4-H or FFA

member, but not both. Exhibitors must declare one or the other at time of entry.

3. Dress Code: 4-H — A long or short sleeve shirt, which fastens down the front with a

collar, is mandatory. Shirts must be solid white or green in color and need not be

western style. Black or blue denim pants are to be worn. Vests will be allowed. The

following will not be allowed: T-shirts, tank tops, tube tops, or sleeveless shirts. There

is to be a 4-H emblem or patch on all 4-H member shirts.

FFA — Either a white shirt, tie, and FFA jacket, or a white shirt with the FFA emblem

and tie (T-shirts are not allowed). No emblems are allowed on shirts.

Exhibitors who fail to abide by dress standards will forfeit prize money.

4. Ownership of animals: The exhibitor will own, posses, feed, and care for his/her

project animal(s) for not less than 90 consecutive days for market beef, market swine,

market lambs and market goats immediately prior to the show. No interruption of own-

ership or possession can occur.

5. Tagging: The Southwest Jr. Livestock Committee will tag each lamb, goat, hog

and steer at a designated place. Should a tag be lost or pulled out of the animal’s

ear, the exhibitor will advise the committee supervisor immediately so the tag can

be replaced and the appropriate paperwork can be processed. Only animals listed

on the tagging sheets will be eligible for the show. There will be absolutely no

late tagging after the 3rd tagging date. No Exceptions!

6. Tagging Extra Animals: Exhibitors will be allowed 2 tags. Exhibitors’ can show 2 animals in any combination as long as they are not the same species, but

only sell 1, unless you are showing steers exclusively in which case you can

show and sell two steers. Therefore, participants can only tag two animals

total including alternates. 7. Family Alternates: if they are a family unit: sibling, step children, adopted or

1st cousin and animals are kept in the same location. A letter stating the circum-

stances must be presented to the committee to be approved and will be determined

on a case by case basis.

8. Name Change: If an animal has been shown in a market show in-state or out-of

-state, it must be shown by the same exhibitor in the Southwest Jr. Livestock Show.

9. Lamb Docking Rule: Market Class market lambs must be docked so that a repre-

sentative from the State Veterinarian’s office is able to determine that at least one caudal

vertebrae (a portion of the tail) is remaining and his determination is final. If you have

questions about how to dock lambs to meet this rule or how this rule will be enforced

you should contact a member of the sheep committee: Richie Stubbs, Ben Harris or

Jonathan Burton.

MARKET ANIMAL HEALTH RULES & CODE OF ETHICS

This code of ethics applies to anyone exhibiting animals at livestock shows in the State

of Utah. It includes Junior as well as Open Class exhibitors who compete in structured

classes of competition. All classes of livestock offered at the livestock event are in-

cluded. The following practices or procedures are unacceptable and are defined as being

deceptive, fraudulent, unethical, and inhumane in the care, fitting, preparation, and

showing of all classes of livestock. The use of any illegal drugs is prohibited. Legal or

illegal substances used to phenotypically alter the appearance of an animal entered in

livestock events is prohibited (see rule #3). Use of illegal drugs is considered a pre-

meditated act! Furthermore, any information obtained in the practice of illegal alteration

of an animal will be turned over to the proper authorities for criminal prosecution. This

is a one-strike and you are out policy! Exhibitors will forfeit any premium, awards, or

auction proceeds, and will be prohibited from further competition at shows in the State

of Utah, as well as being subject to criminal prosecution if proven guilty.

The following is a listing of guidelines all exhibitors must follow to enter livestock at

organized competitive events.

1. Animal Health: All animals present at the show must be in good health and free

from active infectious diseases (ringworm etc.). Animals must not have open wounds or

sores. All male market animals must be castrated. The fitness of animals to be present at

the show shall be up to the sole discretion of the Show committee and the Show veteri-

narian. Market or Breeding animals that do not meet these requirements or otherwise are

deemed unacceptable by the committee and veterinarian must be immediately removed

from the show grounds.

2. Drug withdrawal: It is unethical and in most cases even unlawful to administer

drugs to livestock within 20 to 30 days of slaughter. Animals too unmanageable to be

shown should be withdrawn from their class rather than be tranquilized. Our local show

committee and the show veterinarian will monitor this situation. By federal regulations,

random testing will occur at slaughter, and animals will be condemned which have been

given any injection or oral dosages of tranquilizers, pain killers, antibiotics, diuretics,

steroids, or other foreign substances during withdrawal periods before slaughter. All

sales money will be withheld in such cases. Bloat medicine and other medications with

no withdrawal requirements may be permissible. Exhibitors need to be aware of po-

tential health hazards to consumers who eat animals that have received any above-

mentioned dosages. Please don’t put someone’s life in jeopardy.

3. Code of Ethics (Rule 3a through 3g).

a. Treating an animal internally or externally, with any irritant, counterirritant, or

other substance used to artificially change the conformation or appearance of an animal

for show is considered unethical, inhumane, and is prohibited. This includes, but is not

limited to, the use of graphite, powders, hemp, artificial hair, coloring, common products

such as fly spray, ointment, or liniment used to the point that it is irritating, or similar

type products. The use of dyes, spray paint, or other artificial coloring which results in

altering an animal’s true and natural appearance and/or color is prohibited. Adding false

hair or hair-like material, fleece, or skin at any point, spot, or area of the animal’s body

is illegal and will result in immediate disqualification. Any liquid or substance not

9

Page 12: Southwest Livestock Show - USU...Notes President’s Message 22 Dear Stock show Participants: In just a few weeks we will all gather again to participate in the 75th annual Southwest

considered part of an accepted and normal diet for livestock is deemed illegal and inhu-

mane. For example: the use of alcoholic or carbonated beverages as a drench or filler,

etc. Immediate Attention Drenching will not be allowed unless the show veterinarian

or a show official is present and is needed for emergency purposes only.

b. The use of tranquilizers, sedatives, or depressants which alter the physical or

physiological state of the animal, is illegal. Exceptions to this rule would be licensed,

certified veterinarians, treatment for a recognized disease or injury, or recommendation

for tranquilizing breeding animals in heat that might compromise the safety of others.

The drugs must be approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in meat pro-

ducing animals. All exhibitors will advise show management of any drug and/or medi-

cation administered to an animal that might be detected at the time of showing or at meat

Auction Sale

All Market Animals on Exhibit will go on Sale

If you choose to withdraw your animal from the sale you will be a assessed a fee of

Lambs and Hogs $10 and Steers $20. This must be done within an hour after the

completion of that species judging.

All animals leaving the barn must be checked by animal security and have a signed

receipt.

Saturday, September 7, 10 a.m. TO THE HIGHEST CASH BIDDER

All animals must be paid for by October 1, 2013. Starting October 1, 2013 interest

will be charged at 18% on unpaid balance.

The person who signs the official sales sheet following acceptance of the bid by

the auctioneer shall be liable for the payment of the full purchase price irre-

spective of any arrangements with others to share all or a portion of the bid

price.

Invitations have been sent out to packers and feeder buyers throughout the state to

attend this sale and a good market is assured for all livestock offered. A competent

auctioneer and experienced helpers will conduct this sale to obtain full value of your

livestock.

Buyers can assist exhibitors by buying animals in the following ways:

1. If you want some superior meat, you can purchase an animal and the show com-

mittee will deliver it to the local meat packer of your choice. He will prepare the

meat as you direct. The entire cost of the animal and meat preparation will be paid

by you, the buyer.

2. Local livestock buyers will establish a base market price for each class of animal

and will take the animals at that price. The value of the animal will be computed

using this base price and will be listed on the sale sheet as a dollar value. You may

increase this animal value for the exhibitor by raising this value in dollars as you

wish. The animals will be sold on a per animal basis. You will be charged for the

increase you make in the total animal value for the exhibitor.

Example: A lamb weighing 120 pounds with a base price of 1.00 per pound will have a

dollar value of $120.00.

You may wish to raise this value by $380.00 give a total value to the exhibitor

of $500.00.

You make a contribution of $380.00 to the exhibitor and the local livestock

dealer pays $120.00 and will take the animal.

In both ways of purchase the difference between the base value and total value

of the animal is tax deductible. If you prefer, you may place an order for purchase

with the auction committee and a trained buyer will bid your order for you.
