I need help with this. Its for a pageant. How can I dress him up to represent farm or country life or agriculture. I want something unique not just dress him up like a farmer.

Think about what you’d choose for an icon on your computer. You can dress him as a barn, a pig (babies tend to look like pigs anyway, right? ;-> ), an apple tree, a tractor–all sorts of possibilities, limited only by your skills and/or imagination.
Or if you’re a Wiccan type or otherwise have the right audience, you can costume him as a god of agriculture.
For Saturnus, aka Saturn, you could make an aluminum-covered cardboard sickle or scythe and hang it from his wrist on a short cord. (I assume he’s too young to actually hold anything.) You wouldn’t strictly NEED more than that, since Greek gods–like babies–are so often happily naked, but you know your audience better than I do.
For Khem, the Egyptian choice, you’d wrap him up as a mummy, with maybe a stalk or sheaf of wheat tied into one hand and a sickle into the other.
And if none of these please you, try to analyze why, which will help you come up w/ your own take on the project!
