Atl the colts on exhibi- tion were regular beauties and the judges had hard work to decide which to ribbon. The ring was then cleared and the colts from John Classen’s thorough bred Clydesdale stallion, Bit O’ Fashion, was placed as follows: A. Fritz, J. J. Brown, W. N. Harden- ger, S. T. Drennan. John Embry,C. E. Etzler and M. G. Wilcox acted as judges, and the premium for the best colt was awarded S. T. Dren- nan.
