GEORGIA FARMS AND FARMERS.
.i 1 11
The census bulletins which are
appearing at frequent intervals give
the public much very interesting
information.
One of them just issued relative
to farmers and farmers in Georgia.
It shows that the number of
farms in this state from 1880 to 1900
increased 86,065. or 6a, 1 per cent.
This is n remarkable showing for
twenty years. Within this period
the number of farm owners In
creased 18 per cent, the remainder
of the increase being represented by
tenant farmers.
There were in June, 1900, in this
itate more than 90,000 farms oper
ated by their owners against 76,000
But for more than twenty ye*rs
there haa bean a steady decline in
tho percentage of farm* conducted
by their owners. In 1880 the per
centage ot owner* who managed
their lands was 55,1} in 1900 the
percentage had dropped to 48.1,
with corretponping increase in the
percentage of tenant farmers.
There has, however, been a large
Increase in the number and percent
age of tenants who pay rent in
cash, dr stated amount of labor or
farm produce, and of course, a
corresponding increase in \he per
centage of tenants on shares, or
MJroppers,” as they are called in
the country districts.
There are in this state about 10,
000 more negro cash tenants than
white and about 3,000 more white
ahare tenants than negro tenants.
A Urge majority bf the farms in
Georgia, however, are operated by
white farmer!, the number being
141,865 against 83,836 operated by.
negroes.
The average farm of the white
man in (jieorgts has 174 acres and
tbft avenge negroes 79 acres.
r "White men opente 79 per cent
wf the farm aenge of Georgia while
the negroes conduct about 31 per
cent of it.
In northern and southern Georgia
• mbjority of the farms are open-
tad by their owners and the tenant
system predominates in middle
Georgia.
In 1900 60 per cent of all the
farms in the state and a little more
than 75 per cent of the cotton farms
were operated by tenants.
White men worked 63 per cent
and negroes 37 per cent. White
men owned wholly or partly 54.4
per cent of the on which they
worked and the rest were owned
wholly or in part, by negroes.
Nearly 49 per cent of farms
owned by others were operated by
tenants, the percentage of tenants
working farms was 86.3^ for the
whites, and 13.7 for the negroes.
The bulletin contains other inter
esting and significant information.
The decrease of the number oi
farm-owners is accounted for by
the inornate of the cities find towns
at .the expense of the rural district*.
This undesirable tendanoy, how
ever, is much less pronounced in
Georgia than in many other states.

TO FEED CHICKENS.
Walter Bernard secured a small
track of land a few tAilet east of
Olympia, Ore., and stocked the
place with a dozen chickens. As
he was compelled to be away from
home during the day, he studied
out a scheme for caring for his
chickens during his absence, In
each yard he had erected troughs
to hold food for the hens, and these
troughs are connected by wire with
hss house. Within the house Mr.
Bernard hus connected the wire
with an alarm clock, with the usual
battery attachment. 1 When he
leaves borne in the morning he sets
the alarm clock at the; hour for
feeding the chickens, and by an
ingenious arrangement, when the
time arrives the alarm goes off, the
connecting wire releases the troughs
and the chickens make a rush for
teed, which is spread before them
as if Ms. Bernard did the job in
person .«• Wsycross Journal.
