Another very appreciative, impress,
ively and feelingly audience gathered
at the home of Mr. T. C; Russel!, who
has been blind about thirteen years,
on July Fourh to celebrate his eighty,
third anniversary. There were seventy-
three prsent, making it one of the
biggest and best reunions ever held.
All of he children except one was
present. The singing was one of the
interesting features, also picture mak
ing, but the table,underneath a large
sycamore tree laden with all kinds
of eatables, was enjoyed by all
present.
Another enjoyable feature was the
solo sung by John Russell Sr. and
John Russell Allen, “The Fisherman’s
Luck.”
All went home very feelingly, show
ing the blessed fruits of the Holy
Spirit fully of those gathered about
the home, and a few moments was
spent in prayer.
It is hoped that all that was prsent
will attend next year and bring many
more.

The tobacco industry, with the com
pletion of the big stemmeries and Te-
dyTng at Douglas, Tifton and Fitz
gerald, takes an added permanency
this year as the soles markets open
on July 13th. The acreage, while not
so large as 1919, prospects are good
for larger yield of high quality smok
ing tobacco this year than in previous
year.
With favorable prices, the crop this
year should yield South Georgia far
mers approximately $10,000,000.00.
The average yield this year is ex
pected to e 1,000 pounds per acre,
which, at the moderate price of 25c per
pound, |Wil) make this crop worth
$250.00 per acre.
Land values in the new South
Georgia tobacco belt are stiH quite
low and the opportunity for profi
table investments was never better
than the present time. If you are
thinking of- making a change in your
home write for our list of bargains
