When Howell first bought this
place, like many other farms that
had been worked by negroes under
the ruinous* crojlper system, the
lands were badly wasted. The first
task of the new proprietor w*s to
ditch the roUlu* fteMs and re
store the washed places. Within
four years, since be boufht jhis

Mr. A. Seymour, of Elbert
county, has received a letter from
Association, and fairer land.the eye
never rested'' upon. It la settled
with advanced and progressive
farmers, most of whom caltlvato
their fields aa gardens.
Mr. Howell la one of the splen
did citizens that Gieene county has
given Athena—Like the Wilkins,
Parker. Hart. Bryant and others—
who have done such good work in
the ^building of the city of their
adoption. McBride Howell la sec
retary and treasurer of the Webb-
Crawford wholesale house. Ha was
born and reared on a farm at White
Plains, and when he moved 1 to Ath
ens to engage In business he
bought a farm. He purchased n
place containing 280 mcrea. located
ibout midway between Wlntervilln
and Hull, near the famous farm of
Harold Hulme. It’s aoil Is a gravel
ly red. the best class of farming
land. A bold branch passes through
entire place with
stretches of bottom land, furnish
Ing the finest pasturage and fertile
soil for cultivation.
ppas nnd the Intelligent usd of fer-
qiizers, he Has brought it up tr
produrr phenomena! crops.
Their cotton wns planted late
but som*' of it promises n bale per
acre. But cotton Is only one of the
numerous crops grown t>y thes»
parties. Col. Holmnn has fields o!
corn, ns nlso Mr. Scott, that we be
lieve will make from 30 to 40 bu
shels per acre. But what Is of mos
interest to our formers is theb
success as liny growers. Any far
mer knows thot a ton of peavlne
hay to the acre is considered a
good yield, nnd some contend that
it Is hard to grow that much. But
Mr. Rcott Inst yenr made over
three tons of cured hny per acre
on some twenty seres and his crop
this jFenr Is equally ns good ns last.
If not some better. He /ays th'
trouble 4s that most farmers do not
put enough seed on the land. He
sown two or three bushels of cow
with half a bushel of sorg
hum seed to the ncre.
He sold his hny nt $20 per tor
villi'! more, nnd which brings In about
advise. He is a strong believer In
•operation, not only among
neighboring farmers, but Jn coun
ties nnd states,
He realizes that unless our farm
ers work together nnd use their
brains and head as well as hands
and muscles^they will be at a very
great disadvantage.
If farmers wouM c«-epcrr.te In
each line of farm produce, to pro
duce a reasonable quantity of It?
kind for shipment in bulk, ihej
could then always find a ready mar
ket. m
For instance,of n number of far
mers would raise the same kind
of hogs Ihey would be in much
greater demand and sell better thnr
$70 per acre. But on this same
land Mr. bcott made a rye crop oi
15H bushels per ncre and which !•
worth at least $2 per bushel. And
