Several Southern Cities to Have

The Georgia and Alabama Industrial
Index, published at Columbus, Ga.,
says in its regular weekly issue:
“The interesting happenings of the
past week in Georgia and Alabama
were by no means confined to the
planning of skyscrapers and the pre¬
paration for further industrial expan¬
sions. At Brunswick, Ga., a company
was formed to engage in celery grow¬
ing and to promote truck farming,
and Tifton, ,---, Ga., probably t broke u.unc its ns
records by shipping 100,000 strawberry
plants Diants in in a a w^ftk. week. Indiana InHimiu investors
who acquired a farm near Decatur,
Ala., will devote 200 acres of it to the
cultivation of strawberries, the major
portion of which will be shipped to
the northern markets. Sumter county
Georgia, reported farm sales where
the considerations were such substan¬
tial amounts as $22,000, and in Tift
county, Georgia there was a land sale
where the consideration was exactly
$80 an acre. In Elbert couuty, Geor¬
gia, a farm that was bought, years
ago, at $5 an acre, sold for about $10
000, or nearly $30 an acre. A building
in Atlanta Ga., that nine years ago
was bought for $38,000 was purchased
by a Boston, Mass., investor for a
round $100,000.
“It is announced that a company is
to expend $400,000 in the installation
of coke ovens at Bessemer, Ala.
COVINGTON, GA., IS ORGANIZ¬
ING A $100,0000 COTTON MILL, and
a cotton manufacturing corporation
at Summerville, Ga., which recently
declared a 10 per cent dividend is to
increase its capital stock and use the
money in improvements. A $20,000
woodworking es ablishment is an¬
nounced for Rome, Ga., and a big

Indian Landmarks In Ohio Woods.
In the vicinity of Defiance can be
found trees that many would think
freaks of nature. Such they are in a
way, but they are created by the hand
of man.
According to the stories of some of
the old timers, these trees are much
older than the present generation has
any idea of and at one time served as
Indian guideposts. It is said that in
the early days, when the Maumee val¬
ley was one vast woods, the Indians
bent these saplings to indicate certain
paths. The trees because of their de¬
formity grew slowly and, although
they are many years old, never attain¬
ed the size of their brethren in the for¬
ests. Similar trees exist near Fort
Wayne.—Toledo Blade.
How He Knew.
“Why is it.” asked the blind man of
his neighbor, “that the women with the
sweetest voices are always ugly?”
"How do you know they are ugly?”
quizzed the neighbor.
“My wife describes them to me.”—

Social Circle, Georgia.
was considered a good price for farming
lands and in that short space land values
have doubled. The same thing will repeat
itself within the next ten years is the opinion
of the leading real estate men and the Masters of the world’s finan¬
ces. God stopped adding land territory to our hemisphere years
ago but the incubator factory of human beings is busy all the time
and it is estimated that the population of the United States will be
doubled in less than twenty-five years. You may not have four or
five thousand dollars to sink into a place, very few of us have. You
have a little and that little will start you on the road to success and
independence if properly used and wisely invested. If you wait
until you have all the money to pay down at one time, you will
never buy a farm. Get busy now, look over the list of property,
where 49 acres land lying in the Western part of the county
values are steady at from 25 to 50 dollars
per acre. One fairly good 5 room house with about
35 acres in cultivation, splendid orchard. Price
now $1500.
92 acres lying just north of Covington and an
excellent farm. Land good with plenty of timber.
One third cash, balance 1, 2 and 3 years. Has a 4
room house and two tenant houses. Will sell now
for $2000.
100 acres lying well and in good state of cultiva¬
tion. 65 acres in cultivation and balance in timber.
Has 5 room house and tenant house of 3 rooms,
barn, stables, etc. 25 acres in bottom land. $2000
is a bargain for this property.
126 acres in the northern part of the county and
lies largely in Walton county. Has 5 room house, 2
tenant houses with 2 and 3 rooms each, 60 acres
open, 12 acres in pasture, balance heavily timbered.
Good orchard and all kinds of fruit. 7 miles from
Covington, 3 miles of Jersey and 12 from Monroe.
Convenient to church and school. For the present
$2750 will buy it. Half cash, balance to suit.
