    We don't do those classes, ours are divided Angus, hereford, simmetal, charlois, crossbred, and what ever else purebred they need, they throw in.  Our 4-h show is so small we don't even have to have papers, just looks is o.k. to qualify to show in the class.  We will show as a crossbred.  His...

    Finally Pictures of my daughters Fair Steer!!

Hopefully it will work o.k.  This is only...

    Stupid Fair Rules.

    Unfortunately this is not a fair rule as you say.  This is a state rule for 4-h and FFA.  It started in effect last year,  the state 4-h program in Pa is running on the State farm show rules.  All counties are required to use their rule book as the standard from what I understand.  The rule...
