A Chance for a Young Man. j The developments of Southern agriculture have clearly demon strated one hopeful and inspiring fact. No man with intelligence and experience has within recent years given to a Southern farm diligent and personal attention that he did not reap from it an almost immo- 1 | diate competence and in the end abundant prosperity. Mow it is true that inexperienced planters, indifferent attention, a half-hearted prosecution and a relegation of authority to other hands, has frequently left South ern farms in an unprosperous con dition. Hut you cannot find in Georgia a farm large or small run by an industrious and intelligent man upon sound methods that has not paid him back in happiness and in money. From the record of Dave Shel ton, and McCormick, and dim Smith, and Pope brown, all through the line this fact is estab lished and inspiring. Opportunities are abundant in the South. We have in many places in Georgia large farms and stately acres bought by men as in vestments whose larger interests do not leave them time for person al attention to their farms. These conditions afford superb oppor tunities to skillful and industrious young men of the South and of the North who have determined wisely to make agriculture their profes sion. Here, for instance, the editor of The Georgian has a friend who is the owner of a large and notable plantation in one of the best quar ters of the state. Hu himself has prospered in this world’s goods and his farm is ample, well located and callable of superb development. The editor of The Georgian engages to interest any young man of brains and energy who has given his time and talents to the study of agriculture, both practically and theoretically, in this property and to furnish him with an engage ment that will be more profitable than a bank clerkship, more pro- i lilic of happiness Uiau a railroad agency and more promising of ad vancement than any place behind the counter in the capital city of I Georgia. We are confident that ! there are other men who know of just such positions waiting in the iHouth for the application of capa ble and accomplished agricultur ists to take hold of them. Wo suggest to these men that they make known by correspondence and by advertising just what Geor- I gia and the .South has to offer to young, energetic, and progressive men who are willing to turn their backs on the luxuries and tempta tions of the city and fo build solid and substantial futures upon the farms of Georgia, which they can help to turn into places of beauty and of comfort that will redeem the isolation of the rural regions, and will adorn and glorify the state.
