For 20 plua yeara Charles
Henry Jones has not only
raiaad top quality hoga, but
he haa alao been inatrumen-
tal in helping hundreda of
young people in their queat to
win at livestock shows.
Mr. Jones is definitely not
your usual animal aupplier.
He takes a personal intereat
in every animal he sells.
As evident in Mr. Jones'
ft, * «
state-
ment, "ev-
ery child
should
have the
same op-
portunity
to win."
The com-
passion
for the
children is
evident in
his voice.
From the beginning of the
process of choosing the best ani-

continued from page 1
mal to buy, to monitoring the
growth rate and finally the
grooming and training for the
show, Mr. Jones is there for
advice and help when needed.
This year Jones went the ex-
tra mile by purchasing an ex-
pensive set of scales to weigh
the hogs during the time the
kids are raising them.
Mr. Jones volunteers his time
and gas to take the scales to the
kids, because many of them
have no way to transport the
animals, and it is less trau-
matic for the hogs.
While he is weighing the
projects he is quick with advise
for the kids.
Advice that has been learned
the hard way, over a lifetime of
caring for and raising hogs.
The animals he supplies are
the best he can supply, one of
the pigs predecessors sold for
$13,000 in Illinois.
Next year will be an espe-
cially enjoyable time for Jones.
It will mark the debut of an-
other generation of his family
involved in raising hogs.
Through the generosity that
Mr. Jones has exhibited many,
many children have had posi-
tive experiences that they will
carry throughout their life.
