THE CALL OF THE HEN. 101 



"First, second, third, fourth and fifth prizes will be awarded to 

 the best males and females entered from Inglewood; first prize being 

 $5.00 cash, second prize being $3.00 cash; all winners receiving ribbons. 

 In addition to the foregoing, there will be the Jaffa Grand Prize of 

 $25.00 in gold, which will be awarded to the hen in the show which shows 

 the greatest capacity as a layer, combined with the ability to reproduce 

 her kind. 



"Entries for the regular prizes will be limited to fowls from Ingle- 

 wood, but competition for the Jaffa Grand Prize will be open to all comers. 

 Entries from poultry-raisers outside of Inglewood will be limited to two 

 birds each. No entry fee will be charged, but all birds entered will be 

 sent at the owner's risk, as is usual at all shows. 



"The birds entered will be cared for and reshipped to the owners 

 by the White Wyandotte Farm, under whose auspices the show will be 

 given and to whom all entries should be sent. No entries will be received 

 after 10 o'clock a. m. on March 12th. 



"This show will be unique in that it will present the commercial 

 side of the poultry industry to the exclusion of fancy breeding. Every 

 step in the poultry business from the hatching of the chick to the prepara- 

 tion of the mature fowl for market, and the packing of the eggs for 

 table use will be illustrated by actual demonstrations on the famous 

 White Wyandotte Farm, where the exhibition will be given. Incubators 

 will hatch not less than 2,000 chicks during the show, and chickens in 

 every stage of development, from one day old to ten weeks old, will 

 be shown as raised in the best brooders with the best care. 



"There will be demonstrations on both days of the show of killing, 

 picking and preparing fowls for market, as well as of packing fancy eggs. 

 The best and latest in poultry supplies, fittings, and equipment will 

 be shown as actually used by the capable, successful men who are in 

 the business for revenue only. 



"No admission fee will be charged, the show being given for the 

 purpose of exploiting and demonstrating the poultry business as it is 

 being developed in Southern California. 



"The Jaffa Grand Prize is given and named in honor of Professor 

 Jaffa, of the University of California, who was the first man in public 

 life in this State to test and verify the excellence of the system discovered 

 by Mr. Hogan. 



"Transportation from Los Angeles to Inglewood will be free, and 

 it is understood that the Board of Trade of Inglewood will make arrange- 

 ments to take those who visit the show around the city of Inglewood in 

 automobiles. 



"Those who visit the Inglewood Poultry Show will see an exhibition 

 that will be more interesting by far than any show that has preceded it in 

 California or in any other State, because one will have an opportunity 

 to see, not the pedigree, but the money in the chicken and a practical 

 way to get that money out/' 



In judging the poultry show at Inglewood the management made 

 the rule that all birds were to be judged according to the condition they 

 were in at the time they were judged, and while this rule may be all 

 right in judging the fancy bird and the beef -type bird, it will never do
