Premium List and Rules
155th Warren County Free Fair
Indianola, Iowa
Special Note to Exhibitors
The premium list as published will be our guide, so read all the rules and be certain you understand them when entries
are made. The Executive Committee reserves the right to correct or interpret any part of the rules or premium list.
Before making your entries, notice carefully the rules and regulations governing the department in which each entry belongs,
then be sure to fill out the entry form (one form may be used for all divisions), giving the correct division and class number.
If possible, make your entries before the last day; this will save confusion and waiting at that time. Notice carefully the time
of closing entries. Be sure to have your livestock entries in place according to the Fair and Judging schedule. Fees for changing
entry after entries close will be double the entry fee. If you make an entry and decide not to show it, advise the Secretary and
your entry will be taken from the Judges’ books. There is no charge for this.
The Fair Management has arranged to give the patrons of the Warren County Fair the best from an educational and entertainment standpoint, with more livestock and agricultural exhibits of all kinds.
The Fair Management believes that Warren County is entitled to the best. In turn, they have confidence that you will support
their efforts by your attendance and cooperation, for which they thank you sincerely.
—Jo Ellen Reynolds, Secretary
(Please refer to the Index on the last page of this book.)

Resolution 012709
Livestock Auction
18.Dogs are not allowed on or off leash on the fairgrounds
in any livestock areas or show areas.
As of November 2001, it has become necessary to make
a change to our policies and procedures for the livestock
auction. These changes have come about due to a complaint
from one person that was made to the Federal Stockyards
and Packers Commission regarding the timeliness of checks
being available to exhibitors.
Because of this complaint, we must speed up the collection and payment process. Checks must be issued to market
livestock exhibitors whether money has been collected from
the buyers or not. In order to comply with federal requirements we must make checks available one week following
the sale. The checks will be made available to exhibitors on
Monday, August 9. (We will be billing quicker, thus we will
make a note on the invoices to buyers that we are complying with federal regulations and that we would appreciate
prompt payment.) The lag time between collection and payment will necessitate the fair establishing a line of credit to
cover exhibitor’s checks.
THE FAIR WILL BE COLLECTING A 1.5%
COMMISSION ON ALL MARKET ANIMALS GOING THROUGH THE AUCTION.
The 1.5% commission covers:
* Administrative expenses (computer program,
overtime costs,etc.)
* Interest expenses (for line of credit)
* Indemnity fund expenses (covers uncollected market
auction debts.)
* Buyers breakfast
* Newspaper ad (prior to complaint, these expenses
were deducted from check.)
Exception: Service dogs and 4H/FFA dogs on leash for
Monday show
19. Warren County Produced Eligibility Statement:
(copies available from fair secretary) Animals must be born,
produced and raised in Warren County. Producer must be
a resident of Warren County. Animal must be purchased
directly from Warren County producers.
20. Retag Procedure:
A market beef superintendant must be present at the time
of a retag to witness, reinstall tag, and obtain signatures
on a triplicate form with one copy going to the Extension
office, Fair office and Exhibitor.
The beef, swine and sheep check-off will be collected as
usual.
The fair regrets this decision, but the federal requirement
has taken this situation out of our control.
This commission collection will include cattle, swine,
sheep, goats and poultry.

IAFE (International Association
of Fairs and Expositions)
National Code of Show Ring Ethics*
If the laboratory report on the analysis of saliva, urine,
blood, or other sample taken from livestock indicates the
presence of forbidden drugs or medication, this shall be prima
facie evidence such substance has been administered to the
animal either internally or externally. It is presumed that the
sample of urine, saliva, blood, or other substance tested by
the laboratory to which it is sent is the one taken from the
animal in question, its integrity is preserved and all procedures
of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory
and analysis of the sample are correct and accurate and the
report received form the laboratory pertains to the sample
taken from the animal in question and correctly reflects the
condition of the animal at the time the sample wastaken, with
the burden on the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely
responsible person to prove otherwise.
At any time after an animal arrives on the fair or livestock
show premises, all treatments involving the use of drugs and/
or medications for the sole purpose of protecting the health of
the animal shall be administered by a licensed veterinarian.
5. Any surgical procedure or injection of any foreign
substance or drug or the external application of any substance
(irritant, counterirritant, or similar substance) which could
affect the animal’s performance or alter its natural contour,
confirmation, or appearance, except external applications of
substances to the hoofs or horns of animals which affect appearance only and except for surgical procedures performed by
a duly licensed veterinarian for the sole purpose of protecting
the health of the animal, is prohibited.
6. The use of showing and/or handling practices or devices such as striking animals to cause swelling, using electrical
contrivance, or other similar practices are not acceptable and
are prohibited.
7. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, fair or
livestock show management, other exhibitors, breed representatives, or show officials before, during, or after the competitive
event is prohibited. In the furtherance of their official duty,
all judges, fair and livestock show management, or other show
officials shall be treated with courtesy, cooperation and respect
and no personal shall direct abusive or threatening conduct
toward them.
8. No owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely
responsible personal shall conspire with another person or
persons to intentionally violate this code of ethics or knowingly contribute or cooperate with another person or persons
either by affirmative action or inaction to violate this code of
ethics. Violation of this rule shall subject such individual to
disciplinary action.
9. The application of this code of ethics provides for
absolute responsibility for an animal’s condition by an owner,
exhibitor, fitter trainer, or participant whether or not he or
she was actually instrumental in or had actual knowledge of
the treatment of the animal in contravention of this code of
ethics.
10.The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent
by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible
person to have disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock
show for violation of this Code of show Ring Ethics and
any other rules of competition of the fair or livestock show
without recourse against the fair or livestock show. The act of
Exhibitors of animals at livestock show shall at all times
deport themselves with honesty and good sportsmanship.
Their conduct in this competitive environment shall always
reflect the highest standards of honor and dignity to promote
the advancement of agricultural education. This code applies
to junior as well as open class exhibitors who compete in
structured classes of competition. This code applies to all
livestock offered in any event at a livestock show. In addition
to the “IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics”, fairs and
livestock shows may have rules and regulations which they
impose on the local, county, state, provincial and national
levels.
All youth leaders working with junior exhibitors are under
an affirmative responsibility to do more than avoid improper
conduct or questionable acts. Their moral values must be so
certain and positive that those younger and more pliable will
be influenced by their fine example. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers and absolutely responsible persons who violate
the code of ethics will forfeit premiums, awards and auction
proceeds and shall be prohibited from future exhibition in
accordance with the rules adopted by the respective fairs and
livestock shows. Exhibitors who violate this code of ethics
demean the integrity of all livestock exhibitors and should
be prohibited from competition at all livestock shows in the
United States and Canada.
The following is a list of guidelines for all exhibitors and
all livestock in competitive events:
1. All exhibitors must present, upon request of fair and
livestock show officials, proof of ownership, length of ownership and age of all animals entered. Misrepresentation of
ownership, age, or any facts relating thereto is prohibited.
2. Owners, exhibitors, fitters, trainers, or absolutely responsible persons shall provide animal health certificates from
licensed veterinarians upon request by fair or livestock show
officials.
3. Junior exhibitors are expected to care for and groom
their animals while at fairs or livestock shows.
4. Animals shall be presented to show events where they
will enter the food chain free of violative drug residues. The
act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of
consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter, trainer and/or absolutely responsible person for show management to obtain
any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, or other substances
from the animal to be used in testing. Animals not entered in
an event which culminated with the animal entering the food
chain shall not be administered drugs other than in accordance
with applicable federal, state and provincial statutes, regulations and rules. Livestock shall not be exhibited if the drugs
administered in accordance with federal, state and provincial
statues, regulations and rules affect the animal’s performance
or appearance at the event.

IOWA YOUTH CODE OF ETHICS
entering an animal is the giving of consent that any proceedings or disciplinary action taken by the fair or livestock show
may be published with the name of the violator or violators in
many publication of the International Association of Fairs and
Expositions, including Fairs and Expositions and any special
notices to members.
11.The act of entering of an animal in a fair or livestock
show is the giving of verification by the owner, exhibitor,
fitter, trainer, or absolutely responsible person that he or she
has read the IAFE National Code of Show Ring Ethics and
understands the consequences of and penalties provided for
actions prohibited by the code. It is further a consent that any
action which contravenes these rules and is also in violation of
federal, state, or provincial statues, regulations, or rules may
be released to appropriate law enforcement authorities with
jurisdiction over such infractions.
Youth are expected to be sincere, honest and act in sportsmanlike ways at all times. Youth represent the entire
program and their behavior reflects on their parents, leaders,
club and the entire youth program. All adults involved with
the youth program, leaders as well as parents, are expected
to set positive examples and serve as positive role models
by what they say and do. Any youth who breaks the code of
ethics or allows another person (adult or peer) to talk them
into violating the code of ethics agrees to forfeit all prizes,
awards and premiums. The youth may also be prohibited
from exhibiting at this and future exhibitions including the
Iowa State Fair and other county, state or regional exhibitions.
Youth agree to follow these guidelines:
1. I will do my own work, appropriate for my age and
physical and mental development. This includes research and writing of exhibit explanations, preparing
exhibits (such as sewing, cooking, refinishing, etc),
care and grooming of animals, etc. Adult assistance
should help guide and support me, not do it for me.
2. All exhibits will be a true representation of my
work. Any attempt to take credit for other’s work,
alter the conformation of animals, or alter their
performance is prohibited. Copyright violation or allowing others to complete your exhibit is considered
misrepresentation and is prohibited.
3. I will treat all people and animals with respect. I will
provide appropriate care for animals.
4. I will present exhibits that are safe for consumption. All food exhibits will be safe to exhibit and for
judges to evaluate. Other exhibits will be safe for
judges to evaluate and for exhibition.
5. All food animals that may be harvested immediately
following the show shall be safe for consumers, and
shall have met all withdrawal times for all medications, and be free of violative drug residue.
6. If any animal requires medical treatment while at
the fair or exhibition, only a licensed veterinarian
may administer the treatment. All medications that
are administered shall be done according to the label
instructions of the medication used.
7. My animal’s appearance or performance shall not be
altered by any means, including medications, external applications and surgical procedures. Any animal
that is found to have changed its appearance or its
performance shall be disqualified from the show,
and have penalties assessed against the exhibitor,
parent and/or guardian by the management of the
fair or exhibition.
8. I will follow all ownership and possession rules and,
if requested, will provide the necessary documentation.
9. I will follow all livestock health requirements for
this fair or exhibition, according to the state health
requirements as printed in the premium book of the
fair or exhibition. I will provide animal health certificates from a licensed veterinarian upon request from
the management of the fair or exhibition.
*This Code of Ethics was adopted at the Association of
Iowa Fairs, Inc. convention in December 2002, and revised
in December of 2003. We, as members of the association,
are printing it in our Fairbook as a Guideline for conduct.
All rules and decisions, whether General and/or Specific,
of the Warren County Fair take precedence.
4
10. By my entering an animal in this fair or exhibition,
I am giving consent to the management of the fair
or exhibition to obtain any specimens of urine,
salvia, blood, or other substances from the animal
to be used in testing. If the laboratory report on the
analysis of any sample indicates a presence of forbidden drugs, this shall be evidence such substance
has been administered to the animal either internally
or externally. It is presumed that the sample tested
by the laboratory to which it is sent is the one taken
from the animal in question, its integrity is preserved
and all procedures of said collection and preservation, transfer to the laboratory and analysis of the
sample are correct and accurate and the report
received from the laboratory pertains to the sample
taken from the animal in question and correctly
reflects the condition of the animal at the time the
sample was taken, with the burden on the exhibitor,
parent and/or guardian to prove otherwise.
11. I am responsible for my exhibit and I will not allow
others to violate this code on my behalf. By my
entering an exhibit in this fair or exhibition I will
accept any disciplinary action taken by the management of this fair or exhibition for any violation of
this code of ethics and any other rules of competition of the fair or exhibition without recourse
against the fair or exhibition.
12. I want my exhibit to be an example of how to
accept what life has to offer both, good and not
so good, and how to live with and learn from the
outcome.
13. I will not be involved in any illegal activities while
participating in 4-H and FFA events, including but
not limited to alcohol, tobacco or drug use.
I agree to conduct myself in an honest, ethical, and
upstanding manner and I understand that disciplinary
actions will result if these rules are violated. I understand that I am expected to represent the program in
a positive manner. I have read, understand and agree
to follow this code of ethics, and any other rules of
competition of the fair or exhibition as printed in its
premium book.

4-H and FFA Livestock Exhibiting Rules
Objectives of 4-H/FFA Livestock Shows
The General Rules and Livestock Rules, as printed in this
premium list, will apply in all cases unless exceptions are
printed under department headings.
Competition in this department is limited to 4-H and
FFA members properly enrolled in Warren County 4-H
Clubs and FFA Chapters. In order to show at the Warren
County Fair, the Fairboard requires that all FFA members
and projects shall comply with the same regulations as 4-H
members and projects. No animal project will be shown in Warren County 4-H/FFA division that has been or will be shown in
another county fair in 4-H/FFA division the same year.
All livestock exhibitors (except horse exhibitors) are to
wear a collared, sleeved, tucked in shirt or an official 4-H/
FFA t-shirt tucked in, into the show ring.
All animals (except Market Beef and Advanced Cattle
Feeders) must have been identified on their specific 4-H
Identification Report, which was on file at the County
Extension Office by May 15. Market Beef must have been
identified on the Market Beef Identification Form (4H106-bi) and on file in the County Extension Office by
February 1.
Removing or remedying physical defects by any artificial
means in animals exhibited will be considered as fraud and
deception. Any attempt to improve the showing quality
of an animal by artificial means (other than castration or
grooming) will not be allowed. All animals showing evidence of such treatment will be barred from exhibition. For
clarification, check with project Superintendent or the Fair
Secretary.
All livestock must be shown by the member identifying the project except in case of sickness, injury, service in
the Armed Forces, or when more than one animal is being
exhibited at the same time. The substitute must be another
eligible Warren County 4-H Club or FFA Chapter member. Any and all other exceptions must be approved by all
respective division Superintendents.
Any 4-H/FFA project removed from the County Fair
without official permission of the Fair Executive Committee will automatically disqualify that 4-H/FFA member
from entering the County 4-H/FFA competition the following year, and all 4-H/FFA premiums due that member in
any 4-H/FFA division for the current year will be forfeited.
In classes where no livestock merits first award, the
Judges will award premiums from second place down.
Showmanship contests are held during the various livestock shows under the supervision of the Superintendents.
Ribbons and/or trophies will be awarded depending upon
the livestock division.
Any situation arising, relative to 4-H Club and FFA
exhibits not covered in the rules, or in case of a conflict
or misunderstanding, the final authority for the interpretation rests with a board of two members of the executive
committee, two members of the county Extension Youth
Committee, one FFA advisor, one county Extension staff
member, and the superintendent of the division in which
the dispute developed.
1. To be consistent with the overall purposes of 4-H club
and FFA work and the 4-H/FFA livestock program.
2. To acquaint the public with the 4-H/FFA Programs.
3. To provide individual members with appropriate recognition for their achievements.
4. To provide group experiences that will help participants
develop appropriate attitudes, understandings and abilities in working with others.
5. To help young people develop an appreciation for the
dignity of work and the satisfaction from a job well
done.
6. To develop the ability to recognize and appreciate desirable livestock.
7. To develop an appreciation for proper preparation and
presentation in selling an article or service, and to provide an opportunity to apply skills related thereto.
8. To provide an opportunity for 4-H club members and
FFA chapter members to learn and understand marketing principles and procedures.
4-H and FFA Herdsmanship
Exhibitors of livestock are expected to maintain their
quarters as orderly as possible, and must keep that part of
the building occupied by them neat and attractive in appearance at all times. Herdsmanship judging will be conducted
Friday, Saturday and Sunday by a committee. Clubs will be
given a numerical score, 0-100, each day as determined by
the committee. The scores will be posted beside the 4-H
Office on the Fairgrounds. Each club’s score will be tallied
on Sunday afternoon, and appropriate ribbons will be given
at 4-H Family Night. Scores will be based on: Cleanliness of
alleys, stalls and pens, arrangement of exhibit, appearance
of animals, attendant on duty, and decorations (first day
only).

feels about the final results of his/her efforts for the year.

express his/her thoughts to an adult. It is an opportunity for the
adult to listen to the youth and converse together, the result being
a mutually satisfying experience.
At the Check-Out table, the exhibitor will sign and turn in the
entry form and ribbons will be distributed. Please attach your
ribbon to your exhibit.
Exhibits will be awarded premiums on the basis of blue, red, and
white ribbon quality, and no exhibit will be awarded premium

Any exhibit that does not meet the class description may be moved
to a more appropriate class with permission of the member. All
