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. 8. B.
