Tor sometime it hay buen talked but little has been done. No one has ever becawe interested in it except Mr. 'T. W. Vickery, who, three years ago began to work on a small scale and found it profitable to him self aud to the farmer « Last year he worked more faithful at it and canned several thousand cans of veg etables and fruits—canning all that were brought to him. This year he ‘bought a machine with a capacity of 3500 cans a day and ig doing n‘ splendid business, having already} passed the amount of business (lunc} * last year. No one 1s bringing in ~ big lots of fruit, but manyare bring ing smail lots and he is able to take care of them and never rushed. He would do ten times the amount of . canning 1f he had the produce, " This shows what ‘can be done, What would it mean if our farmers would ounly plant more such vegeta ‘bles? There should be an awaken ing among our people, ard the rais. g of vegetables and fruits on lur,,v-j er scale begun. DPractically every thing grows here, and this is one of the finest sections for truck farming that can be found, ; | Gov, Joseph M, Brown. Hon, Joseph M. Brown, who was inaugurated Governor on last Satur slay, is 58 years old. He was born m Cheroke¢ County on Dec, 28, 1851. On Feb. 12th. 1889 he was nmanied to Cora A. McCord. In politics he is a democrat; in religion, a Baptist. He is slight of buiit, and in height he meastures 5 feet, 6 inches. = ' His mi Blgar and active. He is a profiiaMdent, an author, a busing ;. 0; a farmer, There is n sh" : ¥ about ‘‘Lattle ]oc"] His CXHeH ' - la aie law stu ‘,,,_ ‘ er, man, and : ?}‘ ‘{fi, ¥ld q to ap- AlNge with the needs y class MBgaiaia citizens, W Cditonr, T 0O A L 2 Y A O S 2 Gov. Brown enters upon Lis du ties as Governor with the kindest feelings toward all classes of citi. zens, with the intention to cdminis. tering the laws without fear or favor and with the purpose of making the great office, to which Ye has been called, contribute as much as poss:- ble to the developement of the state and the vrosperity of the people. In the course of hi: inaugural he sgid: I pledge my obedience 1o the constitution in its cntirety, 1 shall undertake to execnte every du ty it imposes upon we, [ shall not attempt to grasp any pover it direct ly, or by inference dentes to me.” His administration, it is safe to pre. dict, will compare favoribly with the best the state has ever had, v ———— ; A Look Ahsad. Around us we see what s being done by the people of our seetion, We see that”our lumber men have cut all the timber. We see the few farmers with their small patches just making enouh for home consum - tion. We see that nothing is being shipped from here to other points, exeept the sweet potato, and we see gousanda us acrys, of guod farming L :fi,lf v n our COuniyim is not used. /xrlook into the future we can see a bright future for Charlton County. |We see that immigration is turned this way, and that it our people will lonly awake we know that this sec ton will soon be settled with good farmers. e say this because we lknow we have the advautages, We know that practically everything grows here. We know our lands are cheap and productive, and if people in the crowded north and east only knew a little of this sece tion, they would come to this sec tion. and what we need to do is to act and let others know what can be "I(mc here, and try to pull this sec tion to the front, Take the sweet potato alone, our farmers have ruis ed 300 bushels to the acre, and sold them for fifty cents per bushel. What would a ten acve tract yield 1f planted in sweet potatoes—slsoo. tor the farmer. And then say that we should not tell others about our country, It we will only do our part, there is no reason why we will not soon see every acre of Charlton’s land put into cultivation, and every person l making an independent living.
