high enough to cut again.
The maize is a species of corn, soft
and splendid for feed. It is a dry

NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN
How Our Neighbor Looked • to the
Passer-by in 1892.
A few days since, we published an
article by Miss Emma Sutton, written
for the Brunswick Times, describing
Tifton in 1892. At that time she
wrote a series of descriptive articles
of the towns along the Brunswick
and Western.
The following is from Brookfield,
as she saw, it then:
Brookfield, March 9.—From Enig
ma to Brookfield, a distance of nearly
four miles, the public road runs
through hundreds of acres on which
the timber has .never been touched.
This is but a suggestion of the forests
tramways will be extended when
away from the railroad to which
fruit farms, vineyards and market
gardens, with factories of different
kinds, line the road from Brunswick
to Albany. According to the views
of experienced mill-men the denuded
lands along the railroad tines will
have time to grow another crop of
pine trees before the timber of all
Georgia's pine forests is exhausted.
Brookfield is not exactly a cheer
ful town, nor has it any immediate
prospect of becoming the metrop
olis of Georgia. Four families com
pose its present population, and there
are two stores and a-railroad depot.
In its palmiest days, Brookfield had
ten families and four stores, but
even the houses occupied by the six
departed families are no longer
standing.
This was once the site of a saw
mill, and all the land in the immedi
ate vicinity except the two small
lots on which the stores are built, still
belongs to the estate of the former
proprietor. Not a foot of it is for
sale, at any price, I am told.
Mr. Charles Hardy, the proprietor
of one of Brookfield’s stores, owns
about 3,000 acres of land near here,
but he has no small lots for sale.
More than 2,000 acres of land, a
large portion of which b well timber
ed, lie in one body, and can be
bought for. 212,000. Sixteen years
ago this land sold for $350 a lot, or
a fraction over 71 cents an acre.
Mr. Hardy came to this county
(Berrien) about the year 1876, and
has been living here since then. He
is as honest ms men are ovor made,
and is especially noted for his horror
of getting into debt and his hatred
of lying. He lived in single blessed
ness until he was seventy-two years
old, when it suddanly occurred to
him that marriage might not be s
failure, after all. There was t
good-looking music teacher, twenty
two years of age, who was recom
mended to him as a suitable candidate
for the position he offered. She liv
ed in another part of the county,
and only knew Mr. Hardy by repu
tation, but she was satisfied that be
was a man who could be trusted. Mr.
Hardy sis a man of business, and
when he decides to act, he acts
promptly. He harnessed his horse
one morning, drove over to see the
music teacher, stated the object of
his errand in as few words as possi
ble, made aii necessary arrange
ments for the wedding, war marritd,
and, with his wife, drove back to
Brookfield for dinner. That was two
years ago, and the couple have a
handsome boy now who is as bright
and strong as any boy his ago in the
county. In spite of a difference of
lalf a century in their ages, Mr. and
Irs. Hardy are as happy and content
ed ns a married couple can be. Mr.
Hardy owns several farms and a
water mill near Brookfield, and is
postmaster and railroad agent at this
station. Judging from his present
appearance, he is good for a long
lease on life yet.
The timber has been cut so closely
about Brookfield that it is almost im
possible for the small farmers in this
vicinity to procure fence rails, and
there is considerable talk of a no-
fcnce law. It is hardly probable,
though, that such a law could be
passed, as it has long been the cus
tom of stock-raisers throughout this
section to pasture their cattle on
wild lands and turpentine farms are
said to afford excellent pasturage for
ecp.
