reserves the right to determine unforeseen matters not covered by the General or Department Rules published in this Exhibitor
Handbook, and to withdraw all premium offerings in all departments should any emergency exist and circumstances demand. In
case of discrepancies between General and Department Rules, Department Rules will supersede General Rules.

7.
OSFEC reserves the right to return entries and cancel any class, section or lot in which, in its judgment, the entries are

OSFEC reserves the right to reassign exhibits to alternative categories or departments. Exhibits may be subject to reasonable
regulation of the time, place, and manner of display.

for loss, damage, theft or injury of any kind to exhibits or exhibitors.
13. Exhibitors found in violation of rules, or in practices unethical or adverse to the Oregon State Fair, shall be subject to forfeiture
of premiums and/or privileges.

Violators of this rule shall be excluded immediately from the judging area and from competition, and be subject to such
additional penalties, including cancellation of awards, as OSFEC may consider proper.
21. It is understood that the act of entering an exhibit or contest at the Oregon State Fair is asking OSFEC to secure a qualified judge
to place a judgment on the exhibit or performance. It is therefore courteous to gracefully accept the decision of the judge,
realizing that it may be in conflict with an exhibitor’s personal standards. Every reasonable effort will be made to secure highly
qualified and conscientious judges.

DAIRY CATTLE POLICIES
1.
To show, a minimum of 20 animals from four or more exhibitors will not receive premium money for the following year. Breed
associations may choose to continue their show without premium support.
2.
The Purebred Dairy Cattle Association Show Ring Code of Ethics will be enforced. Violations will be reported to respective breed
associations and can result in animals or exhibitors barred from showing in their respective breed shows.
3.
The findings of the official veterinarian as to whether or not any animal has been improperly tampered with shall be final.
4.
Barn space will be assigned based upon number of head shown, not number of head entered. Additional space for farm exhibits
needs to be noted on the entry form and will be considered if there is room.
5.
All animals shown in group sections must have been entered and shown as individuals. Group entries must be made at same
time as individual entries.
6.
The Dairy Coordinator has sole discretion as to the capacity of the barn. The determination on any late entries will be per
available space.
THE PUREBRED DAIRY CATTLE ASSOCIATION
SHOW RING CODE OF ETHICS
(Adopted April 3, 2004)
The application of this Code of Ethics provides for absolute responsibility for an animal’s condition by an owner, exhibitor, fitter 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. Dairy cattle exhibitors shall at all times deport themselves with honesty and good
sportsmanship.
It is recognized that there are certain practices in the proper care and management of dairy cattle that are necessary in the course of
moving dairy cattle to and between shows that are advisable to keep them in a sound, healthy state so they might be presented in
the show ring in a natural, normal condition. At all times, exhibition livestock shall be treated in a humane manner and in
accordance with dairy quality assurance practices so as to protect the health, safety and welfare of the livestock and the consuming
public.
No person shall present for exhibition or exhibit an animal which he or she knows, or has reason to suspect, is affected with or has
been exposed to a dangerously contagious or infectious disease, or illegal or non-approved use of drugs, medication and/or
prohibited substance, or residue.
The position of the Purebred Dairy Cattle Association is that all animals presented for exhibition shall be in their natural
conformation and structure, free of any alteration or modification by injection or internal or external administration of any
substance or by any involvement in unethical fitting.
Grooming and Preparation
Dairy cattle exhibitions are conducted under standards for evaluating conformation established by the PDCA Unified Score Card
(1994), with specific breed characteristics taken into consideration by the show judge. In this connection, animals will be groomed
and prepared for the judge’s evaluation in order to display the animal’s natural contour, conformation, performance and mobility.
Specifically:
1.
External applications of cosmetics that affect only appearance may be used, including by way of example hoof polishes and false
switches.
2.
The maximum allowable length of naturally growing hair anywhere on the topline is not to exceed 1”. Exhibitors will be
required to comply with this rule before the animal is allowed to enter the ring.
3.
Addition of foreign objects, including but not limited to hair or hair substitutes, cloth or fiber, to change the natural contour or
appearance of the animal’s body is prohibited.
4.
Externally sealing the teat end with a preparation that does not harm the animal’s skin is permissible. Natural teat placement
will be given preference over artificially positioned teats.
12
Violations: False, Deceptive or Unacceptable Practices
The following practices are violations of this Show Ring Code of Ethics and will be reported to Show Management. These violations
may also be reported to the respective national breed associations:
1.
Misrepresenting the age and/or milking status of the animal for the class in which it is shown;
2.
Treating the animal, particularly the udder, internally or externally:
a.
b.
c.
d.
with an irritant or counter-irritant;
using a device to artificially create or enhance the udder crease;
using other substances as detected by testing that causes changes in the udder to artificially improve the conformation; and
plugging of teat canal with foreign substances;
3.
Surgical or unethical insertion of any matter under the skin or into body cavities, performed to change the natural contour or
appearance of the animal’s body (e.g., administration of fluid via a stomach tube or other similar apparatus to fill the rumen),
though not to preclude practices required or involved in normal management;
4.
Criticizing or interfering with the judge, Show Management or other exhibitors while in the show ring or other conduct
detrimental to the breed or the show; and
5.
Challenging, threatening or interfering with an ethics committee appointed by show management to monitor the animals on
exhibit on the show grounds.
Exhibitor Responsibility
The act of entering an animal in a livestock show is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter and/or absolutely responsible
person (hereinafter referred to as “Exhibitor”) for show management to obtain any specimens of urine, saliva, blood, milk, or other
substances from the animal to be used in testing. Materials may also be collected by ultrasound and photographic methods and by
direct examination of animal.
The act of entering an animal is the giving of consent by the owner, exhibitor, fitter and/or absolutely responsible person (the
“Exhibitor”) to have disciplinary action for violation of this Show Ring Code of Ethics taken by Show Management, the state in which
the show occurs, and/or the national dairy breed association without recourse.
Show Ethics Committee
The make-up of this committee includes official breed representatives, representative(s) of Show Management (e.g., Dairy Cattle
Show Coordinator, General Manager), the official show veterinarian, and extension representative.
The Show Ethics Committee will be responsible for monitoring violations of the Show Ring Code of Ethics. The Show Ethics
Committee will investigate the report of any violation and determine the accuracy of the allegation. The Show Ethics Committee will
have the authority to inspect animals and related material to determine if violations have occurred.
Violations: Reporting and Investigation
Complaints of alleged violations can be reported to the breed coordinator, the Show Coordinator, Show Management, and/or the
Show Ethics Committee.
13
Before An Animal is Shown
If the Show Ethics Committee suspects that a violation of the Show Ring Code of Ethics will occur if the animal is shown, and that
violation is reasonably well established before the animal is shown, the Show Ethics Committee will submit a report to Show
Management. Show Management will discuss the violation with the Exhibitor:
1.
If, at the Exhibitor’s discretion, the animal in question is not shown, no violation will have occurred.
2.
If the Exhibitor wishes to challenge that a violation occurred, Exhibitor will have opportunity to appeal to the Show Ethics
Committee. If its decision is not changed, Exhibitor will be denied opportunity to exhibit the animal in question.
During and After An Animal is Shown
All animals are subject to examination during judging.
The judge and Show Ethics Committee are instructed to examine the top five (5) animals in each class closely for violations of the
Show Ring Code of Ethics. When a violation may have occurred, a milkout may be called for. This call may be by breed association
rule, or by request of an authorized representative of the national breed association, the judge, the Show Ethics Committee, or Show
Management.
If an animal is exhibited and a violation of the Show Ring Code of Ethics is subsequently suspected, investigated, and determined to
have occurred, the violation will be reported to the Show Ethics Committee and Show Management for action. The Exhibitor will be
notified of the violation and the supporting evidence and invited to defend or explain the allegations.
Procedures
Use of ultrasound technology will be used to enforce the Show Ring Policy in both the Holstein and Jersey Western National
Shows.
Violations are subject to the disciplinary provisions of show management, the state in which the show occurs, and the national
dairy breed association. Sanctions may include any one, or combination of the following:
1. forfeiture or return of awards, prizes, premiums or proceeds;
2. written letter of reprimand to the owner, exhibitor, fitter and/or absolutely responsible person (the “Exhibitor”);
3. disqualification of the exhibition livestock from an exhibition;
4. disqualification of the Exhibitor from the show; and
5. publication of offense.
Disqualification may include any or all shows and classes and may be for any number of years.
Violations of these policies are subject to the disciplinary provisions of the appropriate Dairy Breed Association
and/or Show Management.
14
MILKING PARLOR PROCEDURES
A milking parlor is available in the Forster Livestock Pavilion for exhibitors with lactating cows. This parlor is an outstanding facility
for presenting to the milk consuming public the story of clean, wholesome milk production. CHS Nutrition has donated grain for the
use in the parlor only.
All milking will be subject to rules and regulations as established by the State Department of Agriculture and the Oregon State Fair.
Milking will begin in the afternoon/evening on Wednesday, August 20, 2014, and will continue until Tuesday, September 2, 2014, at
the early morning milking.
All owners of animals being milked in the milking parlor will be required to sign a statement verifying that milking animals are free of
any contaminated antibiotic. All animals will be subject to an individual milk sample test, and a daily sample of milk will be taken
from the bulk tanks to test for any impurities in the milk.
A disposal milk tank is available for those choosing to milk in their stalls. Exhibitors are required to dispose of milk properly or may
risk additional service and support charges for additional cleaning and or repair of damages. Any person or group violating a division
rule shall be requested to promptly leave OSFEC property. Failure to leave promptly shall be considered trespass and may result in
future show privileges at the Oregon State Fair being revoked.
First and Second Place Rosettes will be awarded to the cows with the highest production regardless of standing in the class. A Grand
Champion Production Rosette will be awarded to the cow with the highest production within each breed.
Production figured on basis of official 305 days actual production of 4% fat corrected milk. These records will be figured on a Mature
Equivalent for the Grand Champion production.
