Dedication
Ray Reid honored for his commitment to the Blaine County Fair Ray Reid, a long-time supporter of the Blaine County Fair, was chosen for the 2016 dedication of the Fair Book. Don Richman, Chairman of the Fair Board, said “Ray devoted a third of a century to assure a great Blaine County Fair each year. As a board we wanted to recognize and thank Ray for his many years of service.” Reid began working as a summer fairgrounds maintenance employee in 1957, the summer after he arrived in Chinook as a new teacher at Chinook High. Over the years he served as Fair Manager, from 1971-1986, and then as a member of the Fair Board until he retired in 1990. He was affiliated with the Blaine County Fair for 33 years in various capacities. Reid saw some changes over those years. Several new permanent buildings were added while he was connected to the fair: the commercial building; a new 4-H building; a new horse barn and new metal chutes and corrals at the rodeo grounds. Reid said, “Other changes involved the carnivals. Carnivals used to negotiate the percentage of their ticket sales they would give back to the fair board. Then times changed and the carnival would come, but at no cost to the fair board or no payment from the carnival. Now, the fair board has to pay to get a carnival to come.” Reid said one of the things he enjoyed as fair manager was going to the annual fair convention to find talent for the night shows and work with other regional fair managers to line up a good carnival. The timing of the fair also changed over the years. Reid said, “For many years the Blaine County Fair was set during Labor Day weekend, now scheduled earlier in the summer. I think that change had to do with scheduling the carnivals. The downside, I think, was we lost some of our fresh produce and flower displays because the fair comes earlier now.” As to big challenges, Reid told, “It was the first summer I was the fair manager, that was 1971. The previous year’s fair was a disaster from a weather standpoint—we got totally washed out.” The county commissioners wanted to cancel the fair and pay off the $30,000 debt. Locals rallied to have a fair. Reid explained, “The Jaycees organized the first demolition derby—which is still going. Some ladies put together amateur performers for the night shows and we found a carnival. George Ortner, through his rodeo connections, got a contractor to help put on a rodeo at a reduced cost. We made the 1971 fair happen despite all the problems.” Reid grew up in Cando, North Dakota. He said, “Even as a kid I loved when the fair came to my hometown.” It may be the spirit of Reid’s home town name that got him through some tough years as Fair Manager and a Board member. Thanks, Ray, for 33 years of your ‘Cando-spirit’ and making the Blaine County Fair a fun event.

Exhibitors are to obtain an Entry Number from the Fair Office on Friday and complete one Entry Tag for each item being entered (called a lot number). Each exhibitor gets one Entry Number for all entries; the entry number obtained for flower entries is also used for every other Department. Judging is open to the public beginning at 11:00 a.m. Saturday. All exhibits to be removed by 4 pm Sunday. All exhibits not picked up will be disposed of. HINTS TO EXHIBITORS: If plant material is to hold up through the exhibition period, it is suggested you cut flowers the day before showing. Cutting should be done in the late afternoon, around 4 p.m., to get the greatest amount of sugar in the leaves. Cut stems cleanly at an angle with a sharp knife. After cutting, immediately plunge the flowers into 110 degree water
to overcome any temporary wilting. Then set the flowers in a dark place (60 degrees is ideal for cut flowers) out of a draft and let the water cool to room temperature. This enables the flowers to regain their turgidity and last much longer. All foliage (such as leaves) that is below the waterline has to be removed to avoid fouling the water. Also, remove any broken, diseased or disfigured petals/foliage. These definitions are used to explain entry guidelines: Bloom: Individual flower terminating in a stem. Spike: Florets attached directly to the main axis at close intervals. Spray: Side-flowering growth consisting of one stem with or without a central flower. Stem: More than one flower carried by one stem and does not have a separate stem growing from the main stem. Asters, Dahlias and Roses are best cut just before their full center shows. Since buds count as flowers in a display, remove them leaving one flower per stem. Flowers on branches with wood stems, such as Phlox, Stocks, Roses, and Chrysanthemums should be split, crushed or pounded before plunging in water. Any flowers with a milky or colorless fluid in their stems, such as Peony, Poppy, Dahlia, Euphorbia, Hollyhock, may be seared with a flame or the stem end placed in boiling water for several minutes to prepare them for showing. (Protect the blossom end by gently wrapping in newspaper.) Sweet Peas show best when the stems are long and have the largest number of blossoms per stem. Zinnias should be picked when in full blossom, dipped first in hot water through a hole in a newspaper and put in deep, cool water. RULES: Each exhibit must contain no more or no less than the number of stems specified in each lot number. Entries that do not adhere to the
number of stems will be disqualified and deemed “Display only.” Horticultural entries must be grown by the exhibitor. Fresh or dried flowers in designs need not be grown by the exhibitor. No artificial flowers, artificial greenery, or noxious weeds are permitted. **There will be a $5.00 premium paid in each age group for PEOPLES CHOICE AWARD All Premiums will be paid as follows: Blue Ribbon - $2.00, Red Ribbon $1.00, no premium paid for white ribbon CLASS 1 – JUNIOR DIVISION HORTICULTURE Dept/Cls/Lot T 1 1 Petunia, 1 Spray 8” or less T 1 2 Marigolds, 3 stems T 1 3 Zinnia, 3 stems T 1 4 Sweet Peas, 6 stems T 1 5 Bachelor Buttons, 5 stems T 1 6 Rose, 1 stem T 1 7 Any Other Annual T 1 8 Any Other Perennial T 1 9 Terrarium T 1 10 Patio Pot

The superintendent shall have the responsibility to screen exhibits that do not meet weight standards. The market beef must weigh 950 pounds or more at entry in order to be eligible for competition. Any market beef that does not make weight will be placed in the feeder class. The exhibitor must present a Bill of Sale and a W-9 tax form at the time of entry. Other information needed includes: total grain fed, cost of grain fed, and type of ration used. White ribbon animals do not sell at the Youth Livestock Sale; however, they may be sold private treaty. The Feeder Beef Class is designed for steers that have a finish date for a later fair such as the State Fair or NILE, or did not make weight. Exhibitors must have a poster to hang in the barn describing where they will further exhibit the animal and Feeder Beef are not eligible for the youth livestock sale. All market beef that are sold must be taken into possession by the buyer – no market steer will be allowed to be taken home by the youth for supplemental feeding.

SHOW RING CODE OF ETHICS
A Livestock Show Committee of five (5) individuals will be selected by the 4-H Livestock Committee to determine if an animal is unmanageable or if other serious infractions against the rules are made. The committee’s purpose is to assist youth livestock exhibitors, enforce the rules and maintain order in the barns. The committee reserves the right to interpret rules and arbitrarily settle all differences and questions not adequately addressed by the above ethics and rules. Decisions of the Livestock Show Committee will be carried out by the county agent and/or the FFA Advisor(s).
This code of ethics applies to anyone exhibiting animals at the Blaine County Fair. It includes junior as well as open class exhibitors. All classes of livestock offered at the livestock event are included: cattle, equine, sheep, swine, llamas and other specialty animals, poultry, rabbits and any other livestock classes offered. The Blaine County Livestock Committee has adopted the National Show Ring Code of Ethics as the guidelines governing the care, fitting, preparation and showing of all classes of animals. It is the responsibility of the exhibitor to obtain a copy of, read, understand and adhere to these rules. These rules will be provided to exhibitors at the time of entry at the fair or can be obtained from the Blaine County Fair office or the Blaine County Extension Office at any time. 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 are prohibited. 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. The exhibitor will

Future Farmers of America Creed
I believe in the future of agriculture, with a faith born not of words but of deeds - achievements won by the present and past generations of agriculturists; in the promise of better days through better ways, even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the struggles of former years. I believe that to live and work on a good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an inborn fondness for those associations which, even in hours of discouragement, I cannot deny. I believe in leadership from ourselves and respect from others. I believe in my own ability to work efficiently and think clearly, with such knowledge and skill as I can secure, and in the ability of progressive agriculturists to serve our own and the public interest in producing and marketing the product of our toil. I believe in less dependence on begging and more power in bargaining; in the life abundant and enough honest wealth to help make it so--for others as well as myself; in less need for charity and more of it when needed; in being happy myself and playing square with those whose happiness depends upon me. I believe that American agriculture can and will hold true to the best traditions of our national life and that I can exert an influence in my home and community which will stand solid for my part in that inspiring task.
