I WAR ON TEXAS WOLVES.
A I’rofeaHlonnl Killer !■: in ploy <■«! ».’
the t little Italaet-H.
The wolves were not an plentiful as wo |
had expected to find them. The roasup ’
for their scarcity is that, the. ranelinu ti |
have adopted a successful method of di
posing of thorn. Some five or six of tho
bfg rimches have raised a salary which .
they pay a man whose business is no other ,
than to kill wolves and panthers. That
man is Mr. Martin, whose addre-s is .
Guthrie. He is better known as “Wolf” !
Martin, Mr. Martin is a trapper in tho .
true sense of the word. He has two hea l
quarter camps, eight fine saddle horses
which he keeps well ridden, a large prick
of wolf hounds and SOO large, wolf trails.
Tho traps ho puts out at. certain points ,
along the road arid trails and each morn
ing he make* tho circuit with his dogs. J
Tho traps are left hxise, and when ho finds i
one gone the dogs are placed on the trail ■
and usually in a short distance- come upon ’
the trapped wolf, which they dispose of in
short order. The dogs live on the wolves '
killed, eating the meat raw.
During his long experience ns a trap] er
Mr. Martin has learned many curious
things about the habits of the animals in (
Ids section. 'The wolves, he says, are al
ways to be found along tho roadsnt night,
r ii i j r than off >u the braki s, so bo always
places his traps along the roadside. He '
uses no halt on his traps, but has a substi- .
tiito for halt in a kind of fluid of Ids own ■
discovery and manufacture. With the fluid
he saturate- a paper or cloth and buries it
in tha ground mar his trap. De always
carries a bottle of this fluid with him anti
claims it to be superior to any bait.
East year ho killed something over !
1,100 wolves. :i fi-w panthers mid bo deer.
His salary was nt first SSO, but has been |
raised to sllO. This amount, with tho
bounites on the -ealps and the price of tho
skins, makes him a . alary of $l,0O() or
000 a year. This is small in cotuptirison
with the amount s.iv -d yearly by tho cat
tlemen of tho s lion. — i ' xas I arm and

LAND POOR. !
A Scheme to Give Evary Man a
Farm, by a Person Who is
Land Poor.
Mr. Fdi tor : Some years ago I took un
idea that land was the safest investment,
that a man could make in Georgia, and as
a consequence, I am now land poor; have
more than I can profitably make use of,
and *''usequently want to get rid of some,
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 i> the 1» tnt.M nr ■■unty, b- firn
Jy watered, and is adapted to raising cat
tle, sheep and hogs, and is the best for
cotton, corn, wheat, oats and other grains
in the.county. There are a number of
tenant houses on the place, and a home
recently built that cost me over $3,000 to
build. The lacd, in the first place, cost
me from $25 down to $4 per 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 t) another, accordirg 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
quantity of land to be put in a bat or box,
and drawn out under approval of a com
mittee of gentlemen, at some stated time,
so that all shall have a t iir chance to get a
home at a low price, and no one bus a
chance of losing their ni tncy, or failing to
get their value, as paid, and some get a
farm at far less than cost
The land is 12 miles from Macon, a city
of some 50,000 or 60,000 people, and is
adapted to nuuket 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 fine
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 I know of, and I am satisfied the
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.
In addition to the terms offered above, I
have concluded to make the terms of pay
ment in four annual payments without
interest, which is tantamount to putting
the price of the land very low. The
titles to the land have been in the posses
sion of one or two parties for years, and
have never been questioned and are as
good as gold.
lam not ] articularly wedded to this
plan < f getting rid of my lands, but only
suggest the idea—any better plan would
be tbankfnHy substituted.
