IS but additional evidence of the pos
sibilities of Sumter county. The ex-
hlblt puts corn ahead of all else, and
cotton is merely a surplus crop. W.
F kedenburg is in charge of the booth
and it is easily one of the most at
tractively arranged farm exhibits that
Southwest Georgia has ever had.
Plains, Leslie, Andersonville Sumter,
Pleasant Grove, Cobb, Huntington,
Howell, DeSoto, all are represented
either in one department or another,
and every county district has repre-
sentation.
The Third District Agricultural
school, which is located here, has a
homemade exhibit, everything, even
the furniture, being the work of the
students. The canning club exhibit,
under the supervision of Mrs. Olin
Williams, county home agent, is com
prehensive and shows where the sur
plus truck goes. A particularly fine
showing is made by the Pleasant
Grove school.

State and local health work is

planning the Importance of sanitation.

Fine Cattle and Mules Shown.
In the cattle department are ex-
hibited as fine specimens of blooded
cattle as will be found in any county.
Dr.. S. P. Wise has beef cattle on ex-
hibition; the Aries plantation dairy

mules to the best automobiles on the
market and does not hesitate to say
that Sumter county is the best county
in the South for any kind of crop or
stock.
Agriculturally speaking, the fair
here makes plain why the sum is in
Sumter county. Effort to find some
thing that is not grown in Sumter
failed. The general exhibition con-
tains enough to make up a splendid
state show and if more time had been
spent on it there is no telling what
the county would have done. Corn

What Visiting Reporter Found at Sumter Countvs Fair

The Macon Telegraph has the fol-
lowing to say of the Sumter County
Fair. written by its staff correspon-
ent, sent here for that purpose:
AMERTCUS, Oct. II - Already
noted as the home of good roads and
good farms, Sumter county today
serves the state with notice of inten-
ton to become the home Of the best
fair q live set Of citizens can put on.
The start is exceptionally good, so
much 50, in fact, it is hard to realize
this years three-day fair is the work
Of only a few weeks and with only a
few men in charge The exhibits in
every department are as complete
as have been found in any fair held
to date and in many respects Sumter
surpassed other counties. In two de-
tails alone the fair here is differ
ent. There is no admission charge.
Everything is free. It is a three-day
fair the management deciding to
have three big days rather than six
ordinary days.
Diversified agriculture is a habit in
Sumter. 1t has been apparently no
trouble in getting farmers to live at
home They are growing a bigger
variety of foodstuffs than ever before
and despite the loss of large part of
the cotton crop this year, farmers as
whole are in good condition, due
to their decision to make cotton the
surplus crop. The exhibits at the fair,
due to the work Of County Agent
George o. Marshall, are evidence of
the fact that the live stock industry
has arrived and Sumter live stock
people are not at all backward in say
ing this county is going to help Geor-
gia make the best live stock record
in the United States,
Women's Department Overcrowded
The department devoted to wom-
ems work is an eye opener, not only
for the home people, but for the visi-
tors. No one dreamed there would
be more entries than the building
could house, but so spontaneous was
the response when Mrs. S. H. Mckee
sent out a call for exhibits that it was
Immediately seen the women of Sum-
ter were coming in for big part of
the fairs success. There are over
800 entries in this department and
there are so many distinct features
one is amazed and after seeing the
canning exhibit wonder when the
women have time for so much fancy
sewing. Mrs. Mckee has been helped
by Mrs. A. D. Gatewood, Mrs. Bar
low Council and Mrs. Ernest Sta
than, and all are blue ribboners. A
quilt that is one hundred and thirty
years old, entered by the grandchild-
ren of the late Mrs. R. F. Sims, at
tracts considerable attention, and is
worthy of it. The art display is beau
tiful.
