<g> stiff red clay sub-soil, and nearly all level. 2900 acres of fine original Hardwood timber,
© that will cut millions of feet, part of which is wired in large pasture, well watered with
springs and branches, and is fine for raising hogs and cattle. SIX beautiful residences, com¬
modious, large, well-built, comfortable, such as would £ost $10,000 to $20,000 to build to¬
day; each has large barn well equipped with stalls, cribs, lofts and mows, and all other neces¬
sary outbuildings. 26 tenant houses, all in splendid repair, a spring and well at each house,
including the residences; well at main residence is 320 feet deep; each house has a large barn
in good condition and all necessary outbuildings. Modern Gin equipment, which is new
and has only been used for ginning cotton produced on this farm. Modern, up-to-date steam
syrup mill, with the latest machinery for making and handling large quantities of syrup,
would cost to install today at least $5,000. Splendid Peach Orchard, which produced
hundreds of bushels of fruit this Season.
This splendid farm is divided by three large creeks--Big Indian Creek, Dry Creek and Spring Creek. There are in all
30 fine springs bubbling forth the finest water in Georgia--has long been talked of as possible health resort. There are at
least 32 wells of equally as good water. Numbers of splendid highways and public roads divide this plantation, which in¬
sures a fine road frontage to every small farm that is carved out of it. This, combined with a good house, well, spring and
large barn means a complete farm in itself.

This is the most excellent, most valuable, most improved, most up-to-date farm that has been offered at auction this
year anywhere in the South. And we do earnestly believe that this is the greatest proposition for the investor, as the value
of the crops produced last year totaled almost $200,000.00. Improvements could not be placed there now for less than
$100,000.00. MR. INVESTOR, if you let this magnificent plantation sell without securing your share, you will regret it
ever after, because it will be bought cheaper now than ever again.
