~ Farm life was never so attractive
as to day and its possibilities in the
ifuun‘c are simply untold.
Weare in the thresnold of a wan
derfyl ere 1n the annals of agricultur
Millions of acres ofvirgin soil,stared
with the untilled riches of centuries,
stand ready for the up to date farm
er, right here in - Charlton county,
l:m\l the price per acre, which is
within reach cf every one alertc
nough to seize the chance,
Modern farming is the best possi
ble career for men of brains and in
itiative, as well as for the humblest
worker. There 1s no other career
as indipendent. None as free from
eslaying conditions, none as con
ducive to thoroygh manliness, The
modern faymer is his own overload,
nature is his only master,—and she
is an unfailing servaut. Agriculturs
is one of the few callings in which
4 man can be wholly himself, can
think his own thoughts, shape his
own hfe, carry out nis own yiews,
and in 1o calling is success so cer
tain to honest etfort. In the busi
fness world there are g 3 per cent of
lf'aulurcs, according to rehable statis
ties, 'The element of chance is
greater. . Competition forces thous
ands to the wall. It swarves out the
little man. In farming there is no
real competition. The world has
always been short of food and will
be for some time to come, Scien
ufic treatment of the soil, cheap fer
fertilizers, drainage weather forecast
horticuiture, preventing of disease
in plant and beast, are all operating
to make farming profits sure. And
the social life of the farmer is im
measurably more attractive than ev
er before, Railroads, electric lines,
tclcp‘honcs, modern * schools, rural
free delivery, automobiles, all of the
conveniences of city life may be had
in the country as it developes, and
what no ity can possibly - afford—
God’s open air, Think what this
means in prosperity to the farmer
and what it would wean in health
and soul to millions of city dwellers
who are now living in crowed tene
ments and working for a pittance.
“Back to the S0il” is a sirer cry
no longer. It is a sober counsel,
which all classes will do well to heed
Land will never be as cheap again.
Its value wirl double and quadruple
i’ Science, nature, the whole trend of
econdmic forces are coming to baild
i up land wealth of tremendous mag
‘nitude. Southeast Georgia 1s a ver
itable promise land. The time is
fast approaching in this country
when lands will be too high-priced
for the man of moderate means to
purchase. The time therefore, to
buy is now, when values “are still
within your reach. The tide of Im
migration has turned this way, and
this whole southern country is rapid
ly fillng up. If you are a farmer
and’would like tohave a snug balanc
in the bank, get a farm in South
east Georgia while the land can be
purchased at a reasonable price,

* The town of Homeland celebrated the Fourth of July on Monday
sthin a most enjoyable way. The Sunday School gave a picnic over at
the.park, and judging from the number of people there one would think
that we were quite a city. [Each scholar received a treat from the sunday
scnool of a bottle of pop and a dish of ice cream, They had quite a bit
of singing, go.ag to the trouble of bringing th sunday school organ out
to the grounds, They played all kind of games. 4o (uarts of ice cream
were used and one good thing aboutit was that not a pistol shot was
heard all day. Only one bunch of fire crackers was on the ground. Every
body went home well pleased with their first Fourth of July picnic.
