4H & FFA JUNIOR LIVESTOCK SALE
Entries in all sections open to any Missouri and Ringgold and Decatur County, Iowa boy or girl who is properly
supervised and enrolled in FFA or 4-H Club work, as specified in Department Regulations.

PLAN OF AWARDING PREMIUMS
It is the desire of the State Department of Agriculture to establish a uniform system of awarding prizes at all junior
fairs and shows. Animals will be placed in gold, silver and bronze ribbon groups. Unworthy animals will not be placed. In
the Gold ribbon group, all animals will be placed individually and awarded ribbons indicating placing up to 5 places. The
point value of premiums will be as follows:

The maximum value per point on all above classes is 60 cents. In case the number of exhibits prevents payment on the
maximum value, the value per point will be determined by dividing $3,750 by the total points in all exhibits.
The first and second animals in each market class will be shown for championship and reserve judging.

Want to win a ribbon? Spend that extra few minutes on your animal.
