With the beginning of the present fiscal year the Repubhe of Cuba gstablished a Bureau of Information, President Gomez appointing Leno J.

And | ~ Buy You Some i Good Land, | o ~ 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, . W. H.
