“Wc Are the People That Sell Farms and Lots of Farms and Lots — My! My!"
IF YOU WANT TO SELL YOUR FARM PUT IT IN OUR HANDS AND KISS IT GOOD-BYE.
There are 10 dwellings all in good repair on the place, one being the summer home of the late Andy Stewart,which has been wired and
fitted up for electric lights and waterworks ;there is also another large dweling with two of the best barns in the State, which will ac
commodate 150 to 200 head of cattle or mules each; both dwellings and barns have waterworks; there is also a 200-ton silo, a pasture of
about 250 acres fenced with hog wire, and numbers of barbed wire pastures on the place, affording ample pasturage for each farm.
There are about 000 acres of heavily timbered laud that will cut enough lumber to more than pay for the place; there is a lot of long
leaf pine, also hardwood and old field pine.
The soil is a red mulatto pebble and is the best producing soil in this country, and is adapted to growing cotton, corn and all kinds
of grain; there is about 600 acres of high valley land, fronting two and one-half miles on the Chattahoochee river; this valley land never
overflows and never misses a crop; cotton, corn or grain can be grown right up to the liver banks. The entire tract of land lies compara
tively level and is in the forks of the ('hattahooehee river and ('atrip creek 1 ; there are several streams of running water on the place but no
swamps or lakes, and if the entire place was cleared every foot of it could be cultivated with modern improved machinery.
This is the only large compact body of land that can be bought near the city of Atlanta, the New York of the South, and offers won
derful opportunities to the purchaser from a truck farming, cattle, hog raising or dairying standpoint,being especially adapted to any of
the above. It is a great opportunity for tb truck grower, as Atlanta consumes far more country produce than is grown here, and having
a large packing plant makes it very advantageous to the hog or cattle raiser, and being the second largest taule market in the United States
makes it very interesting for the stock raiser.
Please don't miss the greatest opportunity of your life.
