offset by the hlg^li prices being in
reived for tobacco. Locally, fllllng-ln
orders have been good, stimulated by
buyers attracted to the city by the
State Fair, The fall trade In shoes nnd

lines are apparently well filled, Dry
goods are moving rather slowly. Lum?

Petersburg, Vi, Octobor 19.
Between 25.000 and 30,000 people
visited the ta'r or the Southaide Ag?
ricultural and Industrial Association
to-day. It was "Petersburg Duy," and
Petersburg fully honored the occasion
by turning out en masse. All 'ousl
noss houses i.nd Industrial plants were
closed; ta 11 the people turned their
faces to tho Pair Grounds, until the
streets ilnully seemed uo deserted as
on u quiet and restful Sabbath day.
The counties all arosnd were fully
represented, too, and rnany hundreds
of their cltlsens poured in by trains
and vehicles. Admirablo order was
preserved during tho day. nothing to
mar the pleasure of any visitor oc?
curring.
Kvery county In tho Houthstdc made
a fine exhibit of Its varied products,
JtiM nil conspicuously arranged, the
most elaborate display probably com?
ing from the Bellwood farm. In Ches?
terfield. Prince Oeorgo. with its exhibit
of corn and peanuts; Dlnwiddlo and
Brunswick with their exhibits of to
:bucco and corn, show up very hand?
somely, and the other counties of tho
SouthBlde uro in no wise ibehtnd In tho
exhlb'ts of their varies products. From
these It would appear that the South
i sldo la the gaJden spot of Virginia,
I capable of producing In perfection
: everything that grows from the soli.
There la a remarkably fine exhibit
1 of tobacco of the new crop: long and
thick In leaf, rich, dark shipping
grades, mahogany colored fillers, ship?
ping leaf, etc., such aa make glad the
htvirta of buyers and manufacturers,
and there are beautiful specimens of
I the bright tobaccos grown In the
Southslde,
I My late additions the exhibits of pea
jmits from the Virginia belt have been
largely Increased. In Its completeness
the display of Spanish and Virginia
nuts Ib exceptionally fine. And so Is
the corn exhibit, representing hun?
dreds of separate Individual exhibits
of tho white, yellow and red varieties,
sent In by the Iboys' corn clubs and by
[farmers who have adopted the Intensi?
fied methods of farming. From 150
to 200 bushels of corn to the acre are
reported In many Instances.
That the counties around Peters?
burg would make a splendid truck
' section Is evldenrcd by the great dls
' play of fruits and vegetablea of tho
choicest quality and ?f almost Infinite
' variety.
I Tho judges in tho various depart
; ments have been busy since yesterday
in making their awards. The associa?
tion's premium list calls for the ex?
penditure of 112,000 in prizes.
The blue ribbon stock was brought
out on parade to-day on the race-track,
and attracted the attention of the vast
