FIELD AND GARDEN CROPS
Exhibits should be selected for type, uniformity, quality and maturity. Allowance will be made in judging for immaturity of this season's growth. Do not select the large overgrown specimens nor the small ones but choose a medium size that shows adaption to Polk County and suitability for market purposes. In order to properly enter and place on display entries in this division they should be brought to the fairgrounds on Entry Day between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. Avoid congestion by bringing your exhibits early in the morning.

1. The Board does not feel justified in paying liberal cash premiums unless there is fair competition.
