HOMESTEAD LAW UNPOPULAR.

So unpopular has the homestead
law become in Georgia that its pro-
visions are very seldom taken ad-
vantage of. We have not averaged
one advertisement a year in the last
five years of homestead exemptions.
The right gwen by the legislature
to embody in mote a homestead
waiver has practically abolished the
homestead law. What use it can be
now, only to cucumber legal docu-
ments, is question many thought
full minds have been revolving. 1t
certainly is not helping the poor
man get credit, because he is requir-
ed to waive all homestead exemp-
tions before he can buy guano or
provisions ON time. Then where is
there any advantage to grow out Of
it to anybody, unless some negligent
or careless person credits some one
without taking waiver? Those
who have taken the homestead find
that they have placed their property
in such legal embarrassments and
difficulties as to be unable TO secure
credit, and they worry, fuss and
fume, and wish they had never
awaited themselves of the homestead
law. Then if we look at the moral
aspect, it is not the square thing to
hold property to the deprivation of
an honest creditor. The best way
for a man to leave his wife and
children home, is to keep out of
debt, and by economy and industry
buy home and leave it to them
unencumbered. Good collection
laws will increase public confidence
and enable man to get credit much
easier than under exemption laws
that create doubt and suspicion.
We believe in everybody having
home. People who own their homes
make community of common vel
fare and mutual interests. They
make better citizens, feel more in
terested in good order, law and pro-
lection Of society. But every man
who owns home should buy it with
his own money and not his neigh
boris. Let every incentive to hon
esty be inculcated by good, whole
some laws and the people will grow
more prosperous, contented and
happy under them.
