"The show has become the leading livestock exhibition in Northern California attended by more than 10,000 visitors. The stock judges were from the university farm at Davis. Over $1,800 in cash prizes was distributed to exhibitors at the Fifth Western Sonoma-Marin Diary Cattle Show in Valley Ford under the direction of the Western Sonoma-Marin Fair Association. The closing day featured a parade of the prize winning livestock." M.B. Boissevain "This influential event went on to become the Sonoma-Marin Fair still held in Petaluma each year." Editor, M.B.
