Show Prizes Awarded To Valley Exhibitors While Gunnison Valley did not offer of-fer many exhibits at the annual county fair held at Manti two weeks ago, those w'ho did make exhibits, as a rule, captured either first of second sec-ond awards, and incidentally the valley won much advertising and publicity through the small effoits put forth in exhibiting livestock, grains, beets and garden truck. Another An-other year, it is believed, will see more interest in the farm exhibits from this section as the fairs each year enthuse exhibitors and the contest con-test for honors is becoming more keen than ever before. A. H. Lund, famed for his high class stock and who resides at West-view, West-view, captured two first prizes, being be-ing awarded the best for the junior bull and junior heifer class. Walter Rasmussen entered Dick-low Dick-low wheat from his farm and was awarded second. Reid Voorhees got a second prize for beets. Lester Williams, operating a farm on the west bench and who specializes special-izes in grains, got first prize for the best sugar beets, a first for the best selected sheaf oats, the best selected sheaf wheat and a second for the best selected sheaf oats. Gunnison also outdone all others in the cabbage display. Niels A. Madsen, the well known truck gardener, gard-ener, walked away with Uie first prizes for his cabbage exhibit. In the domestic art display, Mrs. N. L. Hermansen had a number of articles on exhibition. She won second sec-ond prize for the table runner and a second for a three-set doily. N. L. Hermansen, the miller of this city, as usual, captured first prizes for cereals and flour. |
