The Putnam County Farm Bureau, Inc. was visible in a number of ways at this year's County Fair. Pictured above are some of the 61 contestants in the Pedal Pull. Contestants competing in four different divisions with those placing first, second, or third received toy tractors, along with a special coupon from Casey's. All contestants received a coupon for a free glass of milk at the Farm Bureau Milk Barn which will be honored at the 2013 Fair if they were not able to use it this year. The Antique Tractor show may have been small but the quality was excellent with a special treat of having one tractor on steel wheels and a one-of-a-kind John Deere sprayer tractor. Next year's tractor show looks to bring back the awards and limit the required time they are asked to remain on the grounds. Putnam County Farm Bureau also supported the Queen Contest, Master Gardner competition, the ultrasound program, and purchased the goat of ten year member Kyle Cunningham during the 4-H Auction. The Milk Barn was also a success selling out of milk on the last day of the fair.
