LEBANON There were
a lot of entries in the poultry
exhibit of the Lebanon Fair
this year. There always are,
thanks largely to the fact
that one of the best known
breeders of fancy and exotic
poultry in the country was a
Lebanon Countian - Henry
Miller, who died two months
ago at the age of 76. Despite

brought a senior calf into the
ring. Tom Smith of AnnvUle
had the junior champ, a
senior yearling.
JERSEYS
The show’s only double
winner was Sue Bomnerger
of Aiumlle who had a pair of
stylish bovines which
received the nod for first
place from the judge. Senior
and grand champion was her
3-year old, while her aged
cow was chosen as the
reserve champion on both
counts.
Heather Hemley won the
junior champion honor,
besting an entry from Bill
Hoffman who picked up the
reserve champion ribbon.

animal at this year’s
