The-antiquated idc-a that has ob tained in the sou t)i since the wur that cotton was tier single and only money crop is giving away under a more progressive agricultural civili zation. Our formers, especially those of smith Georgia, have long been in bondage severe by holding on with one some of the painful lessons taught in the school of experience and wo rejoice that they are profiting by them. They arc beginning to find out tlmt q profitable money crop does not depend any more upon success ful growth than successful market ing. They were awuro onr soil pio- dncod many crops successfully, but they arc just now learning that these crops can bo marketed with a greater profit than cotton—mid especially the short staple. This question of mar keting crops is one to which our farmers should give earnest thought, as there can be little doubt that upon it depends the future success of all agricultural operations. Even the failure of short staple cotton as a money crop is traceable to some ex tant to defective knowledge on this question of marketing The soil of south Georgia bus always produced sweet potatoes in perfection, but it is only recently that the people , have commenced to leurn they cun be marketed to profit. A Berrien count furmer, Mr, J. E. Williams, believing he could get a good profit by keeping them in a per fect state of preservation until spring and shipping thorn in car-load lota to Atlanta and other large cities further north, made the experiment and his expectations were more tlmn realized in the result. His success bus en couraged ethers to raise potatoes for, marketing next spring, und the Da- xy.rrg believes it Is tlio beginning of a grand fttti’re for sweet potatoes as -m<Jhey'erop. cuiio syrup Is beginning to attract nttentlSiYTH o mouoy oroji. it has been discovered tlmt by putting it hot from the kettle or evaporator in to bottles or jugs,sealed Mr-tight with wnx or resin it can be kept Indefinitely now, fresh and nice. It is believed if our farmers would taka tlm trouble to put it up in clear bottles—labeling the bottles with printod labels bearing the words, "Fresh Qeoagiu Syrup”—a market can be found for It the following spring and summer at twenty-five oehiH a jfeV I '£ gallon In the oities. It Is .worthy a trial at least. llioo is also looming up us u profitable money crop among south Georgia funiiora The introduction of the latest improved machinery for cleaning 1ms wrought a wonder ful change In tlm crop whloh has been only an incidental one until now. In the southern mid southeastern portion of Berrien oounty short cot ton him been almost entirely super- ceded as u money crop by the long staples. Tolmooo is nlao receiving some attention in the northern und northwestern section. Aguin, atmio of-our farmers near tlio railroads have pi tolled upon melons and fruits in money crops and have met witli fair success. Open S.nixl. The editor of the Gazette dis covered immediately after tlic com pletion of tiie Georgia Southern and Florida railroad to Vuldosta tlmt'tlie greatest hindrance to iinmigrrtion to this section of country was the scarcity of open laud. He then ven tured to advise the young men of Berrien county, who owned tracks of woodland which they desired to sell, to make a settlement thereon and clear up fifty or a hundred acres of it, so that the purchaser would have some open laud to begin with at his new home. The lack of these de siderata have spoiled many u pros pective sale of land and deprived the county of valued new citizens. The truth of the above opinion has been forcibly demonstrated the past few weeks. Oapt. H. H. Tift has lost several fine sales because he could not furnish the necessary open land. Others in the vicinity of Tif ton have had like experience. In deed, the Gazette is informed, tliut Oapt. Tift failed only a few days ago to locate near Tifton a fruit syndi cate, capitalized at $60,000, because lie did not have one hundred aorcs of cleared land in n body lie could lot them have to begin operations. A gentleman, experienced in the mutter, in conversation with the edi tor upon this important topio a few days sinoe, asserted it as his experi ence tlmt three or four hundred dol lars expended on a lot of land in making a clearing would double its value, and render it more saleable. Quite u number of persons from middle Georgia have come to this scotion lately prospecting mid in variably wanted their purohuse to lnolude some open land und, fulling to got it, went buck home without buying.
