THAT IA1) SKATE
INTEREST IN A BIQ SCHEHE
HAS BEEN REVIVED,
What the English Company Who Have Been
Securing Options on Land in This
Section Propose Doing,
Fjom the Albany Herald.
Most people in this region are
aware of the fact that Capt. Sam
B. Hunter, of Macon, Ga., repre¬
eenting a company of English
capitalists, has been taking op¬
tions on lands in Dougherty, Lee,
Calhoun, Terrell and perhaps oth-
er counties in this part of the
state, and there has been much
inquiry . and speculation about
what it all meant. Thousands of
acres of land have been optioned
at various prices and it is under¬
stood that the maximum limit
has now been about reached, al-
though it is known that Captain
Hunter has been trying to negoti-
ate w JHi i an d owners in these
counties during the last few days.
The following published by the
Macon Telegraph from its Atlanta
correspondent, seems to convey
some idea as to what the English
company purposes doing, and will
be read with interest by everybody
in this section:
“A representative of the Lipton
company of London, limited,
called on Secretary of State Phil¬
ip Cook at his office in the capitol
in Atlanta last Friday in refer¬
ence to a matter that may mean
a great deal to the south, and es¬
pecially the southern part of
Georgia, and which bids fair to
revolutionize the farming indus-
try of the south.
“This gentleman was Dr. John
Alton Harris, of London, who
came duly accredited as the agent
of the company of which Sir
Thomas Lipton is the president,
The P ublic has been du] y iuform -
ed heretofore of the 3,000 stores
that the Lipton companies oper¬
ate in all parts of Europe, the
headquarters of which are Seated
in London.
“The management has found it
difficult to supply the demands
for the products of the truck
farms, and after duly considering
the magnitude of the undertaking,
with all the accompanying draw¬
backs, has hit upon the novel
scheme to establish farming, sta¬
tions at different intervals in the
southern part of Georgia.
“In order to export these pro¬
ducts the company will establish
a line of steamers between Savan-
nah, Ga., and Liverpool, Eng¬
land. It is proposed to bring
over a thrifty class of German
gardeners, and they will serve the
double purpose of bringing the
land up to the full measure of its
production and inculcating the
lesson of diversified farming
among the ‘natives.’
“The company will establish
ccdd storage plants on all the
farms and will contract with the
farmers in the neighborhood to
take all the products on their
farms, paying cash therefor, ex¬
cept the cotton and corn. This it
does not propose to touch at all.
All other things raised, such as
beans, potatoes, Irish and sweet,
turnips, onions, kerBhaws, sugar
cane, syrup—in fact, everything
producable except cotton and
corn. They will take all the
steers raised, and contract with
the neighboring farmers for all
these things, so that the farmers
may be reasonably assured of a
market lefore planting.
“About six months ago a dap-
P er looking individual circulated
amon 8 farmers of south Georgia
and 8ecure d options on farming
tracts conveniently situated. He
did not tell his business, but
merely gave it out that he might

invest in some of those lands. He
secured twelve months’ options on
over 100,000 acres, These tracts
lie at intervals between Bruns¬
wick and Columbus.
“After these options were se-
cured the owners of the lands
thought no more about it, as
months had elapsed since they
were secured, and they concluded
that the stranger had possibly
given up the idea of investing in
any lands in this section. Sev¬
eral days ago Dr. Harris, the
London representative of the Lip-
ton company, went over the
ground in south Georgia and in¬
spected the property on which
they held options.
“Dr. Harris expressed surprise
at the exceedingly low prices for
poultry that prevail in the state.
While in south Georgia, he said,
he priced turkey goblets at 75
cents to one dollar, *1 was utter-
ly astonished,’ he said. ‘Why in
Europe they are worth from $5 to
$6 each. Under our plan of col¬
lecting and distributing these
products the Georgia farmer will
? e t a much bette prirce for his
product, a ready and never failing
market, cash on the spot and no
delays and harassments conse-i
quent upon the commission busi¬
ness. We will also take all you?
oranges, lemons, pineapples, ote,
In fact, everything you cap pror
duce except the two articles men-
tioned.’ ”
