Triton, Ca, Sept. 29-The South
Georgia Land and Agricultural EXPOSE
ton has already gone far beyond a mag
nitude and excellence anticipated by it's
management and still the exhibits con-
tinue to arrive and the question now
is to find space and comfort for those
that are yet ON the road. The agricultural
building has every booth taken and the
excellence Of the exhibits is surprising
even to the people who have produced
them. The womans building was run
ming over the day before the exposition
opened and large space had TO be given
them in the agricultural building for
their fruits, cookery and children's art
department.
The poultry department has already
reached half its capacity, three days be-
fore the poultry show proper begins.
and the management had to enlarge the
stock sheds yesterday, today and again
tomorrow. The exhibit space on the
grounds outside the building have been
filled with concessions and outside ex-
hihits and a very few more would in
fringe on the amusement grounds which
the management cannot permit because
the great Barkoot Amusement company
has a show for every available space that
has been allotted for amusement.
In fact, the South Georgia Land and
Agricultural exposition is already a tre-
mendous success, and the end of the
second day finds nearly all the exhibits
in place. the buildings all completed, the
grounds in beautiful condition and to-
days crowds at the exposition entirely
satisfactory to the management. The
prospects tomorrow are exceedingly en-
couraging and Saturdays attendance will
tax the capacity of grounds, buildings
and people.
While the special from Macon today
brought only a modest attendance from
that city, some of the most prominent
people of that city came along and the
expressions from the entire company
were those of pleasant and unexpected
surprise.
Perhaps the most attractive feature OF
the exposition is the woman's building
A prominent lady from Macon today said
the woman's work at this exposition was
undoubtedly the finest ever collected in
the state, and the daintiness and variety
Of its beauty is simply startling. There
is nothing in the woman's building but
fine work and art. There is no room for
anything else. The ladies of Triton spared
no pains or expense in making the build
ing beautiful and dainty before the ex-
hibits were placed, and with the taste
that has been exercised in the placing
Of the exhibits came dream of beauty
that is worth going hundreds of miles
to see.
The bali park and aviation field is
the delight of every visitor that has seen
it. Nothing in the south can surpass it
in perfection and the baseball games
played yesterday and today by the Mon
ticello. Fla, and Triton teams were as
good as any professional games that have
been scheduled this season. The weather
has been ideal for baseball, and the
games have been largely attended and en-
joyed. HtfS Tf
The management Of the exposition has
been conscientious in making this ex-
position and they are striving to make
good in every particular so that 1t may
become an annual affair, and thus far
there is no room to regret their effort or
to curtail their expectations.
