Congratulates Work of Boys Corn Clubs and Girls Tomato Clubs. Much Pleased With Agri-
 cultural Display

Following the formal opening of the State Fair yesterday Culpepper Exum, president of the city commission, escorted by members of the executive commit tee of the association, paid visit to the various exhibits. MT. Exum was very enthusiastic over the entire array of ex- aibits and said that never before in the history of this city had there been gath cred such a fine assortment of displays. The official confined his visit. on ac- count of pressure of time, to the exhibits underneath the grandstand and the two main buildings. He remarked upon the absolute readiness of all the exhibits and said the exhibitors and officials evidently had started off well on time.
 The exhibits of corn, cotton, pumpkins, and other commodities shown underneath the grandstand were exceptionally att tractive to MT. Exum. He said that the showing indicates that the farmers of this state were wide-awake to the advan- tages of diversified farming, and were keeping pace with the general progress of this state in having their products the best possible to be attained
 T. C. I. Exhibit
 He visited the exhibit of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, which is in charge of MT. Brannon. There he looked over the ngots. the massive pieces of ore, the coal, steel rails, flange steel and other products of that company That exhibit Mr. Exum said, was ar- ranged with great taste and with an eye for permanency for the foundation has been changed to concrete. Attractively twisted steel bars enclose the exhibit and the entire show is overhung with canopy supported by large white pillars.
 "Ah!" exclaimed MT. EXum, that show ing of Moore & Handley is very fine. Cool ness, they have a bunch of stuff there Will you look at the plowsl That certainly is great.
 "I tell you the Texas oil company has a splendid exhibit. By George, they have everything there made by the company. The exhibit is three times as long as the Standard oil display. The latter company has fine space, also, right at the door, notice. The Larkn Idea, the soap makers have fully furnished four room flat arranged. That is certainly attrac- tive The exhibit of the Southern Sewer Pipe company, local company, Is bully. They seem to make all kinds of pipe The Wesco Supply company. of which our friend oscar Turner is president also has fine display of things electrical. l am told, MT. Turner, that you have rural phones all over the grounds. That is certainly splendid

Attendance Will Be Large

The attendance will be large and rep resentative. Every train which arrived yesterday brought its quota of guests Democratic enthusiasm was at high pitch last night Everyone is talking wilson And everybody is confident that Wilson will be elected.
 One of the objects of the convention was to arouse renewed enthusiasm in behalf of the ticket. Another was to dis cuss ways and means of raising more money from Alabama for the use of the national campaign committee
 feature of the night session of the convention will be the sale by auction of lot donated to the cause by Bir- mingham real estate firm.
 Other than the election of successors to Billingsley and Stewart it Is thought that the work of the executive commit tee will be of little importance.

 MT Exum continued the rounds of the agricultural exhibits and. was finally brought up to the Girls Tomato club exhibit. He was told that a young girl Miss Ore Hunter of RussellVille, had rented a very small piece of land something under an acre-and on it had raised 1510 quarts of tomatoes, which cost only $50 to produce, and the sale price was s150, making a net profit or that small piece of land of s1oo.

The railroads of this section that encourage this work among the boys and girls of this state are to be commended. Jefferson, Shelby.

THIN FOLKS MADE FAT
The Way Samose Works It's Won
ders Guaranteed by Jacobs
Pharmacy.

More than half the readers of The
Georgian would give almost anything
to be plump and rosy instead of thin
and scrawny.
Physicians and chemists for years
have studied the problem of making a
flesh forming food. but it is only within
the last few months that a bright man
discovered the prescription that TAX
en- with the daily meals gives a positive
increase in flesh. In fact it was so
certain in it's action that guarantee
was attached to each package stating
that if weight did not increase as a
result of using it, the purchase price
would be refunded
This preparation is now put up iii
convenient form for use under the
name of Samose.
Jacobs Pharmacy has secured the
agency in Atlanta for Samose and as
the percentage of satisfactory results
from the use of this prescription is so
nearly one hundred per cent. they feel
there is no risk in offering to refund
the money if Samose does not do all
that is claimed for it,
Everybody that is thin and out of
health should begin today the use of
Samose with a guarantee like this.

ST PETERSBURG. May 16.-When the
budget OF the ministry Of agriculture was
presented in the dums, it was pointed out
that the sbrogation Of the treaty Of 1882
made Imperative an Increase in the cul-
iivation Of cotton in Tukestan through ir-
rigstlon. and, inasmueh as governmental
irrigation was ineffective, the question
was asked why the offer Of John Hays
Hammond. the American promoter, was
declined. Mr.. Hammond had proposed 10
construct irrigation works in the south
ern part Of the desert of Kara Kun
"A representative Of the agricultural de-
partment replied that Mr. Hammonds en-
gineers had inspected the Kara Kun
Steppe and reported adversely, but now
wished 10 irrigate the so-called Hunger
Steppe in Garghana. on the borders of
the cotton raising region.
The duma recommended that private
