excited but little interest among the
farmers of the North probably from
the fact that farmeress a class do
not generally attend such expositions,
especially when far away from home.
As the abolition of slavery had left
the planters of the South with tracts
of land which cou]d not cultivate un-
der the system of labor.it became
important to them and the whole
country that these lands should be
brought into cultivation, and this
could only be done by bringing into
the South farmers from other sectidas
to whom these lands are offered for
sale or rent upon the most favorable
terms, good improved lands being of¬
fered at from $5 to $10 per acre.
The Central {Railroad of Georgia,
one of the largest and wealthiest rail¬
road corporations in the Sonth, real¬
ising that its traffic and revenues
would be largely increased by the set-

Previous to the war the Southern
States cared little for immigration;
took no steps to secure it. The in¬
stitution of slavery and large planta¬
tions offered no inducements to the
poor but energetic pioneer who first
peopled the Western teritories. For
several years after the war the coun-
try was in such an unsettled state
that there were no inducements for
immigrants, and the people were too
busy repairing their broken fortunes
to take any thought of the future,
Texas, with its large unpopulated
territory, was the first of the Southern
States to recognise the importance of
inviting settlers to her broad prairies,
and, a few years after the war, organ-
ized a bureau of immigration and be¬
gan advertising her resources and
advantages, and soon secured a vast

was not until 1881 that any effort
made to attract the attention of

Atlanta Cotton Exposition of 1881

Northern visitors but to the people of
South, and from it may be dated
mining and manufacturing devel-
of the South. Each succeeding
from this date there have been
expositions of the wealth of the
at some prominent point, a$
as exhibits by various Southern
at the large expositions in
North.
While these expositions attracted
the South miners, manufacturers,
and tradesmen, and were

highly complimented by the officers
of the Fair; and all our visitors unit
ed in saying that it was the most in¬
teresting feature of the Fair.
Near on of the hallways was a
stand, upon which were placed a
visitor’s register, and our papers
and pamphletsfor distribution. This
stand was placed in charge of a gen-
tleman whole sole duty was to dis¬
tribute printed matter to visitors
and secure the registration of names
and addresses of farmers. And I will
here remark that, in this manner, we
distributed about a ton of printed
matter and secured the names and
addresses of over ten thousand farm¬
ers. The number of visitors to the
Georgia exhibit at the various fairs,
1 estimate at one hundred and fifty
thousand; and I am sure Ii do not
exaggerate, for the receipts of the
Michigan State Fair show an atten¬
dance of forty thousand, their re¬
ceipts on the third day being $7,000,
exclusive of exhibitors’ and season
tickets.

the agricultural fairs they were tak¬

of their merits.
The Georgia exhibit car left Ameri-

first exhibit was made at a district
fair, holding four days. Prom Mans¬
field we went to the Interstate Pair

the State Fair at Jackson, Michigan;

traveling between these points, circu¬

the partial failure of the eom crop
in that section for several years, set
them to thinking if it would not be
advisable to remove to a country

where frosts do not trouble. While
