No sheep, swine or poultry have been
entered for competition, and this is sad
lack of enterprise on the part of the
farmers of this section. Entries for the
baby show will be received until noon on
Friday, and the prizes will be awarded
later on in the day. At the present
time only one name appears on the
books, that OF Simeon Fitzpatrick, an
11-month-old infant hailing from Santa
Ana; but several others are sure to be
on hand, for the cash premiums are
rather tempting. For the finest, hand
soonest and healthiest baby, not over
eighteen months of age, a prize of $40 is
offered; for the second best, $15; and
for the third best, $40. For the best
twin babies, regardless of sex or color
eighteen months old or under, premium
of $40 will be given.
