LAND POOR,
A Scheme to Give Every Man [a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor. I;
s
M it. i i iitok : Some years ago 1 took an t
idea that land was the safest investment p
that a man could make in Georgia, and as •.
a consequence, lam now land poor: have 1
more than I can profitably make use of, t
and consequently want to get rid of some, j
or all of it, and I have decided to adopt
the following measure to get rid of it:
I will say, in the first place, that the
land is the best in Monroe county, is fine
ly watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for j
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the county. There are a number of 1
tenant houses on the place, and a home {
recently built that cost me over $3,000 to <
build. The land, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 par acre—saying .
altogether, about $lO per acre, without
improvements ; and to get rid of it, I will
average the whole place at $lO per acre,
in the following way : I will have the
entire place, 1,600 acres, sub-divided into
50-acre lots, at $lO per acre, giving more
than 50 acres to one party, if desired, and
less than 50 to another, according to his
ability to pay for it, as the case may be,'
the entire quantity to be drawn for.
In other words, the number of lots and
quant if j’ of hint! to be put in a hat or box,
and drawn out und- r approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a 1 Tir chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one has a
chance of losing their m mey, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at tar less than co-t
The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city
of some 50,000 <>r 60,000 people, and is
adapted to maiket gardening, and for
northern people who know how to work, '
it offers a fine opportunity for a colony of
energetic citizens.
It is all together, and would make a tine
settlement, having the best of pastures,
water, springs, creeks, etc. The land is
timbered with hickory, beach, oak and
pine, and some cedar ; in fact, it is the best
place 1 know of, and I am satisfied the ed
itor of the Call will vouch for what I
say.
I would be glad to have any parties who
mean business, to go over the plantation,
familiarize themselves with the advan
tages, and communicate with me at
Barnesville, before going into the matter,
assuring them that I mean what I say.
I have also a farm of 50 acres near
Barnesville for sale,on good terms.
In addition to the terms offered above, I
have concluded to make the terms of pay
ment in four annuai payments without
interest, wki'di is tantamount to putting
the price of the land very low. The
titles to the land have been in the posses
sion <>t one or two parties for years, and
have never been questioned and arc as
good as gold.
