WHY
Before the summer Is well under
way It is probable that South Caro
lina farmers will Invest between $150,-
000 and $200,000 in Americus homes
and In the magnificent farming lands
of the country round about the city,
j Deals are in sight, It is stated, in
volving $133,000, and the outlook s
tbat other interested parties will <e
on the ground for farming lands and
city homes before ninety days more
have passed.
Already $180,000 of Sumter county
properties have been bought by South
Carolinians, all within the past year.
livery Investment that has been
made Has proved so satisfactory that
tho3o who have put their money into
, Sumter county soil have been encout-
i aged to go further on thi3 line, with
t others following their example.
I As soon as the planting season is
' over several parties of South Caroli-i-
lans, from different sections of tbat
j state, will be here on tours of in.
i vestigation that will probably re-
! suit in purchases of farming lands
i and the settling of some of them in
the ccunty.
These nre not Included in the state
ment that there are already deals m
prospect aggregating $150,000 to $200
000.
The man to whom Americus aad
Sumter county are Indebted for this
bringing of the advantages and oppor
tunities of this section to the atten
tion r.f the wealthy planters and in
vestors of South Carolina Is Mr. O. H.
Waddell.
Mr. Waddell came to Americus
couple ct years ago, quietly surveyed
the city and county, reached the con
elusion that there was nothing bet
ter to bo found in the South than
Sumter county, settled down here for
the real estate business, and at once
began to call the attention of former
friends and acquaintances In South
Carolina to what this section offer
ed.

The results were not long In ar
riving. Speedily wealthy men from
that state came on a visit of inspec
tion, were quickly convinced that
the half had not been told them, anj
the result was a heavy Investment »1
South Carolina coin in this county.
Among the deals that were consum
mated through the Instrumentality
Mr. Waddell during the past year or
so, In whlchl the buyers were South
Carolinians, are the following:

Those who have purchased planta
tions have been eminently pleased
with their investments, and are pre
pared to follow up their Investments
with further purchases during the
present year, as well as Interest oth
ers In what they recognize to be one
of the most promising counties In the
whole South. Two wealthy planters
not only contemplate considerable In
vestments but are thinking of moving
their families to Americus and pur
chasing homes In this city.
The outlook apparently la excellent
for a considerable Influx of South
Carolina families Into the county dur
ing the present and the succeeding
few years. Those who are buying
large plantations are men of very pro
gressive Ideas and will not be satis
fied to turn the places over to negroes.
Skillful white tenant farmers will
come and In gome casea, at least,
places will probably be cut up into
smaller farms and disposed of to South
Carolina farmers who are willing to
move here.
flood Roads a Browing Card.
The coming of Mr. Waddell to
Americus supply merchants, the
class of dealers who furnish far
mers their supplies of meat and grain
during the spring andjummer, declare
that their sales of these commodities
are far less this season than in nny
year during their career In busi
ness.
The farmers simply are not buying
western corn and hay now, as in
previous years.
This is the best reflex of improved
conditions in Sumter that has been
noted. It indicates th'at the thrifty
farmers of Sumter and adjoining
counties have turned over a new leaf
In their farming operations.
The greatest corn and oat crop
ever grown here in Sumter county
was harvested last year. The acre
age of grain crops was far greater In
1909 than any previous year in the
history of the county, and the bene
ficent effect of this plan of farming
Is now apparent
Farmers here have feedstuff suffi
cient tot make a crop this year, and
will not buy western corn, fray and
oats, as heretofore.
One large dealer here states that
he has not sold a single car of corn
this year, or laBt fall, whereas
previous years his sales would have
reached a dozen carloads by this
date. Yet not a car of corn has he
sold, or even ordered, in the past
six months.
Another dealer stated yesterday that
his sales of corn and oats this year
were not twenty per cent of his sales
last summer.
Meat Is high, 15 cents per pound
wholesale, and about 18 centB retail,
and farmers are buying It very spar
ingly. Sumter’s farmers, as a rule,
raise nearly enough pork to supply
their farms, and consequently they
are cutting out western meat and
corn alike.
This fact reflects the splendid con
ditions under which fhrmlng ois be
ing conducted in Sumter county this
year.
