Augusta Exposition Preparations and Real Estate Boom
In Augusta on April 19 the track for the exposition grounds is completed and trains will run to the main building site. Real estate near the fair grows valuable as syndicates buy up lots, while a new women’s exchange forms amid religious tensions. Mormon elders face local opposition as proselyting activities raise concern over polygamy and published material.

A Griffin farmer exterminates jaybirds, discovers a blue plant from their remains, and ends with a devastating swarm that destroys his land, epitomizing “let well enough alone.” The tale ends with the farmer crying that line in ruin.
