Notes.

The Sixth District Agricultural fair
the best ever held in Southern Caliior-
mia. It will be complete in every de-
partment. A majority OF the manuiac~
turing industries will be represented in
the pavilion and the mechanical depart.
msnt, which will be established in
separate building this year. TIE dis
play of agricultural and horticultural
products will be especially fine and the
live stock and poultry shows will be of
equal size and Importance with tn o
other departments.
One of the finest displays TO be made,
and one that will be both interesting
and instructive, will be that of the
Chino beet sugar factory. Mr.. Gird is
giving his personal attention to the ar
rangement of the exhibit which will be
a practical illustration OF the method of
converting the beets into sugar.
Mrs. Ellen B. Farr OF Pasadena has
taken large space in the art and curio
department, where she will display a
splendid collection OF fsh basketa used
by the Hawaiians, Ssmoans, Esquimaux
and the people of other primitive races.
A large section will be devoted to the
olive industry. A number OF the lead
ing growers are arranging for display
OF their product that will eclipse their
former ones.
The devotees of racing will find bets
ter card for the week than even the most
hopeful expected. There will not be a
dull day during the week. On the con-
trary, there are races scheduled for each
day of she meeting which promise to be
on the sensational order. The races be-
gin with a running sweepstake for 2-year
olds, in which good lot Of horses are
entered. Next in the order comes the
Los Angeles Derby, which will be one OF
the great races of the meeting, unless all
aigns fail. Nine OF the beat 3-year-olds
in California are named to start. Among
them are Orizaba, Charlie A., Polaskey,
Montalyo and Alexis, without taking
the other four into consideration, the
horses named will make great race.
The light harness horses have 2: 20
trot and trotting race for year-olds.
besides 2:14 class pace, which will
divide interest with thesDerby. Waldo
}. and Lady H., both of whom are en-
tered in the iree-for-all pace against
Silkwood and U. Wood, will start in this
race, and there are other good ones in
Del Mono, Thers, Nellie ]. and Cipola.
A number of these horaes can 60 the
mile better than 2:10. aud the winner
will have to go in that time or less.
This programme is the best ever given
in Southern California for an opening
day, and is deserving OF a larger first
day crowd than has yet assembled at
the track.
The directors have accepted the fol-
lowing entries for the gentlemen's road
race for PAGERS and trotters:

holdps ch 4 Texas; William Llewellyn's

A good many people journey out to
the track every morning to watch the
horses st their work. All the last ones
are showing good form.
Yesterday morning the track was
cons family occupied. Lady H, the
crack PAGER OF the Los Ceriitos stock
farm went three heats better than 2:15.
Horsemen cay that Silkwood, Waldo j
and W. Wood will not have walk.ove
with Lady Fl in the free-for.all pace.
Oaito.is one OF the best 2-year-old trot-
ters entered for the meeting. He did
two heats yesterday bstter than 2 :S3 and
third in 2:29sf.
Edith, Ottinger & Kenting's fast
PAGER, will probably be selected TO 90
against the bicyclist if the race is made.
She can go better than 2:10, and many
predict that If she starts against the
wheelman he will be compelled to make
the mile in 2:0S in order to win.
A contest between such horse as this
and Tom McAleer or some other fac.
wheelmen would draw big crowd to
tho track
