Richardson County Extension Agent William Dial and his family have been heavily involved in swine production since about 1970. It was during the mid 70s that William began to develop his current confine ment operation tor approxi mately 100 sows. As he began to become more strongly interested in the livestock business, he became actively involved in all Extension programs relat ing to livestock. As a result of this involvement, he became sold on the merits of perfor mance testing and buys prac tically all of the boars that are ^needed for his farm from performance tested herds or the North Carolina Boar Test Station. In addition to tits swine herd, he has also purchased performance test ed bulls from the North I Carolina Bull Test Station and ' is currently making plans to do a considerable amount of I artificial insemination with semen from nationally known performance tested animals. As a result of searching for the vesy best quality bieeder animals that he can find coupled with a high degree of intense desire and determi nation to do a good overall job in the production of his animals, William has become a force to deal with in any show in the state that he is involved. Last fall he placed second in carcass competition behind a perennial outstand ing hog producer, Ljrcurous Lowry. William also did ex tremely well in the carcass competition at the state fair. However, he apparently waited until this Spring to become the heavyweight in the Annual Market Hog Show that is held the last Wednes day in March. His (laughter, Tina, had the Grand Cham pion which weighed 240 pounds, his wife. Carol, had Hie Reserve Champion which came in at a weight of 220 pounds, Tina came back m again with the Grand Cham pion Pen of Threet and William, himself, had Reserve Champion Pen of Three. AH of the other bogs that were shown in the stew - this year were quite ontatna achieved this year bv the Sil ? .* ' family is some indication of the quality of animals that he is currently producing on his farm near Pembroke. Naturally, the quality of animals in a hog show is only one segment of show. The opportunity for youth from throughout the county to participate in the educational judging competition or the activities of those youth who actually show animals are important events associated with the show. Additionally, the enthusiasm for the overall improvement of the livestock in Robeson County and parti cipation of producers in help ing to coordinate and conduct events of this type is heigh tened through the splendid participation of'firms such as the PCX units located in Robeson County, the Cape Fear Farm Credit Organiza tion, Pates Stockyards, Pro gressive Savings and Loan Association, Scottish Packing Company, Carolina Grain and Feed Store, and Robeson Savings and Loan Associa tion. These business firms purchased the show winners for premiums above the regu lar support price. This is one way they chose of saluting agriculture in Robeson Coun ty and its overall economic impact. In regard to the youth activities, there were three little fellows in the show ring this year who were extremely small compared to the ani mals that they were showing. Lester backlear. Tommy Law rence Brixey, and Scott Brixey were the three and four year olds who participated in the Beginner Youth Showman ship. In the 7 to 10 age group, Carey Brixey, Dana Brixey and Richie Ward were in there showing strongly in the Junior Youth Showmanship competition la the Senior Showmanship activities, whi ch involved the youth from II to 18, Tina Dial also placed frst while David Johnson. Steve Johnson. Charles Brix ey and Pam Ward filled the other places. in the youth judging activi ties, the Boy's Clover Club (B) was the first place Champion 4-H Judging Team, while the Parkton Chapter was the Champion Norm Robeson lor FFA Judging Team and l an - moitl was ihe Champion Sou ih Robeson FFA lean.. In the civic club judging competition this year, the Lumberton Jaycees, Lum berton Rotary, and the Robe son County Retired Teachers participated with the Retired Teachers taking the honors this year. Through the cooperation of the Lumberton Jaycees, the Robeson County Livestock Producers, some members of the local business community, local newspapers and radio stations, the Extension Ser vice is able to coordinate the activities of events such as the hog show for the overall enhancement of the agricul tural scene in Robeson Coun ,y Outstanding Young Woman The Board of Advisors for the Outstanding Young Wo men of America awards pro gram announced todav that Sandra Kave Locklear of Philadelphia.
