EXHIBITS Of CORN
To NUMBER 5000
Girls Canning Clubs viii Have
Displays in Addition at the
Maize Show.

With reports coming in to the Cham
Der of Commerce from all of the Geor-
gia corn club districts, it was estimated
today that about 5000 individual exhib-
its WHY be placed in the state capitol
for the Georgia Corn show. December
3 to 6, inclusive. This will be more
than double the number of last year.
The southwestern district has prom
Used 700 exhibits. Most of these are on
display at the Triton fair now. There
will be 500 from the Augusta district
and 427 from the northwestern district.
These figures already are known 1t is
estimated that the Atlanta district will
have 500 the Savannah district 500 and
the Columbus district 300. This makes
a total of 2,727, and does not take into
account at all the exhibits of the girls
canning clubs, which will be an ex-
tensive and important feature of the
show.
G. E. Rice agent for the corn clubs
in the Augusta district. has written
positively that he would send here 500
exhibits from that section. Mr.. Rice
says he has some very strong exhibits,
with high average, the maximum for
the district being 1918 bushels raised at
a cost of sixteen cents per bushel This
is a pretty good record and there will
be very few to surpass it in the entire
state.
Augusta Boys Can't Come.
Mr.. Rice expresses deep regret that
the dates for the Augusta Corn festival.
which Were fixed in advance of those Of
/ the Georgia Corn show. should conflict,
because, he says, he will be unable on
this account to bring the corn club
boys from that district to Atlanta De-
cember is boys corn club day in Au-
susta. the same day on which the
Chamber of Commerce will tender a
dinner to the corn club boys here.
DR.. William Bradford, of Cedartown,
corn club agent in the northwestern
district, has written letter promising
definitely Ar exhibits from his district.
The number Of exhibits from those
counties where local contests have al
ready been held will be as follows:
Barlow county, so; Chattooga. 50;
Whitfield, 40; Gordon. 40: Polk. 80:
Walker Is: Dade, 6; Catoosa, 8.
| The number of exhibits from the fol-
! lowing counties is estimated by DR..
! Bradford as follows: HARRISON, 25
Paulding, 30; Floyd. 80; Murray, 1O
! Gilmer 20; Pickens. 80; Cherokee, 25.
With averages like these maintained
! by the other counties of the state, the
| total is bound to go somewhere around
5000, in addition to the Girls Canning
club exhibits
