The Special Tobacco Exhibit.

fan address delivered by Mr.. 7. X.
Bruner, Superintendent of Special Ex-
hibits, Worlds Fair, St. Louis, Mo-, to
members of the Tobacco Leaf Association
and the tobacco growers of Maryland at
the Carrollton Hotel, Baltimore, on the
10th Of October, 1908.
The Special Tobacco Exhibit is de-
signed to bring together the tobaccos
from all Of the tobacco growing States
into one colossal and harmonious cx.
hibit, with q view Of setting forth in
the most graphic way the Significance
Of the crop and its relation to the agri'
culture Of the several States produc
ing it, and, in large sense, the value
of the crop in the United States.
In order to successfully bring about
such a presentation of this great inter
est, Mr.. F. W. Taylor, Chief Of the
Department of Agriculture, has re-
served the most advantageous space
in the Palace of Agriculture for the
purpose, and has invited the co-opera-
tion of the tobacco growing States, the
manufacturers, leaf dealers and ware.
housemen OF all the States in carrying
out the plans. The purpose is to con-
struct the exhibit on the basis of the
statistics OF the crop as reported by
the United States Department Of Ag-
riculture, thus placing each State in
the same relation to the exhiba as it
occupies Tin. the number OF pounds
grown) to the whole crop. This is
fair to all and is common ground upon
which all may stand. But in the
question Of quality" there is a prom
ise OF much friendly rivalry for suprem-
acy. This only enhances the interest
in the exhibit and is to be encouraged;
as, also, will be all of the distinctive
characteristics found in the culture,
curing, warehousing or marketing OF
the crop in the several States.
DESCRIPTION
The space to be occupied. by this
exhibit is located in the central bay OF
the Palace of Agriculture, flanked by
90 foot aisles and bisected by three 10
foot aisles, the dimensions are 4O0x52
feet, which will be cut into suitable
aisles for the convenience OF visitors.
a. Beginning at one end of this
space there will be shown the tools
and implements used by the farmer in
the cultivation of the crop. Theoe
will be drawn from the several States,
and the attention of collectors is called
to this feature, as well as to what fol,
l)ws.
(2.) Next to these will be shown the
tools and implements used by the
farmer in harvesting the green leaf
and transplanting It to the curing
room.
80 The next section will be de-
voted to a reproduction Of curing

which will be surrounded by four fields
OF growing tobacco, illustrating the
