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 Ranch For Backache use Stu art’s Gin and Buchu, Georgia is not the only state in which the dog is preferred to the nheep, say« the Maeon News. lit It xas there is one sheep to every 350 acres of land, but there are in the state 176,- 000 dogs.

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. 8.
