The San Francisco call., 1910-11-14

STOCKTON, Nov 1S.-Susan. black
breasted red game bantam, Weighing
exactly eight ounces, won the highest
show.
The mana cement of the show did not
exclude bantams from the competition
for grand prize, and as Susan was the
highest scoring bird among the 1900
on exhibition, she was awarded the ele-
CANT trophy offered by Joe Gianelli.
The bantam scored 96% points and
not only won the grand prize, but took
the cup for the highest scoring ban
tam. She belongs to j. Hildreth Crow
of $50 Thirty -eig ghth street, Oakland.
The maximum weight for bantams is
Is ounces and all under that weight
counts so much for the bird. Although
this was the first time the bird had
been entered, authorities pronounced
the hen one of the finest they had
passed upon She has been raised "a.
pet and apparently takes keen delight
posing in her masters hand. Susan
is 8 years and months old. and has
two pullets that weigh six ounces each.
They have never been in the sunshine
nor walked on the ground, as the sun
and soil tend to cause larger growth
