Six Counties Entered for $1000 Premium at State Fair
Macon reports that six Georgia counties have entered for the $1,000 premium and will compete for the best display at the upcoming State Fair. President W J Northen travels to Savannah to secure lower passenger and freight rates, with Emigration plans to attract northern settlers. Speeches by noted educators and farmers are planned, and free transportation for exhibits may be arranged. The convention will determine the premium list and fair dates, with Augusta Exposition in October influencing scheduling.
