r.ipt. Callaway then referred to
our write up of tho Flatwoods of
Oglethorpe county. He said he
knew of no noctlqrwpf North Amor
im with KreatetHmsibilitles than
that belt of country passing
through Oglethorpe county and
kn"wn as the Flatwoods.
Hn says that many years ago
Hon. Alex H. Stephens spoke to
him about the Flatwoods and pre
dieted that some day It would'be
the most valuable land Mb the
South. At that time these^ lands
eould have been bought a) $2 per
IOT. and Mr. Stephens'said they
would bring 150 when -4 their worth
was realized and their resources
developed. And for agricultural
forpones there Is no liner land
anywhere than that linking dho
Flatwoods with other soil. He aald
this Is the finest grain land ho
ever knew and on a place he once
owned thcro arc fifteen hundred
acres that will grow as fine alfal
lann can be produced, and It 1
not necessary to tnocculate the
mil. And It will also grow enorm-
cna crops of cover and cutlvated
pannes. As to wheat no section
will grow larger or finer crops.
Thin soil Is filled with Ume and
ijp can grow crops on It without
,-ajnrtlcle of fertlllti
’"flihe richest and'
essentials for produeng crops.
But its value from an agrlcultur-
nl standpoint is not all. Thla whole
belt Is rich In mineral wealth and
II an Investigation and survey Is
made of Its resources, valuable
minerals will be doubtless be dis

rich in gold, but the precious metal

the state that underlies the whole
country, and which yields so many
valuable productions and will

this. Is not all, Capt. Cal

an old miner spent some time In

report of evidences of a num

At tho same time orders were
given to prepare a list of citizens

position that It would not be right
to nllow some citizens to Install

provided for In the councllmanlc|
resolutions, nfter others had been
forced to connect with sewers.
Tho statement which Chairman
McKinney will present to council
