Governor Smith Visits One
of Georgia’s Garden
Spots.
By JOHN C. REESE.
Bpcriol t« The Georgiau.
Summerville. Go,. Sept. 16.—Travel
np and down and across Georgia wWare
you may, and it would be difficult *o
find a more universally prosperous
people than In Chattooga county.
After Governor Smith's speech there
Saturday ho was talking to a group on
the veranda of the Gilbert House.
Among other things he said:
"1 doubt If a more prosperous sec
tlon than this could be found In Geor
gia today. Chattooga and Walker ore
two of the best and most prosperous
counties In the state, taking the whole
people Into consideration. I was Im
pressed with the fact today while
speaking that you could not tell who
lived In tho country and who lived In
town. The people from the country
were as well dressed and clean-cut In
apeptiranee as the people from the
towns.”
And Governor Smith was not dealing
In empty phrases or meaningless flat
tery. Everybody In Chattooga bears
every outward evidence of prosperity.
The buggies and wagons rolling In from
the country were drawn hv fine #tnrk
and the people were well dressed and
contented looking.
Diversified Crops.
Chattooga Is a series of peculiarly
fertile valleys and ridges. The valleys
are rich and the ridges filled with min
erals, and the sloping sides crowded
with splendid timber. They raise cot
ton In Chuttooga—lots of It—but it is
not THE crop. Long^slnce the agri
cultural class learnedthe necessity of
diversification.
And Jenrnlng the necessity, they Im
mediately put It Into practice. ?iun-
dreds of acres of the ridges and steep
mountain sides are crowded with peach
trees. Fruit growing has rome to be a
tremendous factor In the prosperity of
the county.
Many men have made Independent
fortunes out of the Industry, and Chat
tooga peaches are fumed for peculiar
delicacy of flavor, and the mineral In
the soil gives them a rich carmine hue
thnt adds largely to their marketable
value.
In a good peach year Summerville Is
the busiest small town In the country.
Hundreds of people find employment In
picking, packing and shipping the lu
scious fruit. Buyers flock there from
II over the country, and altogether the
town puts on an appearance of tre
mendous activity.
Summerville Is situated in the beau
tiful Chattooga valley, fertile as any
land to be found In the state. The cltl.
zens are alert, progressive and alive to
anything for the common good.
Marks of Progress.
They are Just completing a $150,000
cotton mill, said to be one of tho hand
somest and most modern little mills In
the South. Practically every dollar for
building It was put up by Chattooga
county people. And the farmers have
as much or more money Invested In It
than the merchants and business men.
The twon has two banks and both
are bursting with deposits. Inquiry
will reveal that the farmers are among
the best customers of these Institu
tions. A business man in Summerville
laughingly sold:
"We have no poor folk* In Chattooga
county. Of course, thnt Is not said
seriously, because there are shiftless,
never-do-wells hej*e ns in every com
munity, but the man who has ambition
and bustle Is well fixed. The proper*
tlon of reully poor people Is amazingly
small. And these are, as a rule, re
sponsible for their own condition. The
I>eople work hard, have plenty and arc
contented.”
That perhaps more accurately ex
presses the actual conditions than any
thing else could.
