COTTAGE HILL
WILL FURNISH
GOOD EXHIBIT
c. w. MCDONALD, PROMINENT
CITIZEN oF/THAT PLACE, SAYS
HE CAN PRODUCE COMMUNITY
EXHIBIT WHICH CANNOT BE
SURPASSED.

Following the proposition Of L. W.
Hardy, superintendent Of the Pensa-
cola Farm Lands Co., to get up an ex-
hibit from his neighborhood, c. w.
Mcdonald. OF Cottage Hill, called at
the once Of General Manager Lillard
yesterday afternoon and volunteered to
take the lead in getting up q neigh
borhood exhibit among the farmers Of
his vicinity. Mr.. Mcdonald said that
he would simply have to be shown be-
fore he would believe that any section
of this county or any other section
within the bounds Of Sthe Interstate
Fair district could produce a better
crop than his community can.
Mr.. Lillard said to a Journal repre-
sentative yesterday afternoon that he
believed that this community exhibit
proposition was one Of the best things
that had been instituted in connection
with the fair and that he was OF the
opinion that more could be accom-
plished In the way Of arousing interest
in the county exhibit in this way than
in any manner that could have been
suggested AS Mr.. Lillard said, nat
urally, the better community exhibits
we get. the better county exhibit we
may expect, for we can select the best
from each Of these exhibits and thus
produce a county exhibit that cannot
be excelled anywhere
