BISHOP HAYGOOD ON SMALL
FARMS.

Bishop Haygood, in a recent let
ter in the Augusta Chronicle, COM
pliments the owner of a 1,400 acre
plantation for the ''horse sense" he
displayed in sending for the survey
or and instructing him to divide the
tract into ten lac. acre farms. I
The Bishop then goes on to say:
Are there not several thousand
places in Georgia that need dividing
into small farms? In the old plan
tation-the / 400 acres held togeth-
er the value was possibly S. per
acre. The probability is, if it is
held together, that in ten years
more it will be So. With the farm
ers on it In ten years it may be
worth $40 per acre.
We talk Of immigration and the
need of population. Georgia will
not be crowded when 100000 of
people find homes IN her broad do
main. But we would be better off
TO shrink to 100000 than to swell
to 5000, 0Q0-filling up with people
Europe don't want. One way and
the best way to secure a large popu.
lation to Georgia is so simple that
the great ones will not hardly care
for it. Keep at home our own peo-
pie. Every winter whole regiments
of Georgians go west, when, if land
owners had even "horse sense" they
would, most OF them, stay at home.
But none of those who leave US can
buy the 1,40O acres; most of them
can buy the 40 acre farm.
have neighbor who owns 1000
acres he cannot manage. He is
growing old and his place running
down. He should send for the sur
veyor and divide it into ten 100 acre
farms, giving buyers reasonable
terms. He would have money and
they would have homes. And
Georgia WOULD keep ner own people
the best of all people.
AS it is young families Ego west;"
the remnant Of the old "rich before
the war" people are forever pinched
to pay the taxes on lands they can.

B. W. Edmondson, a prominent
citizen OF Brooks county, killed his
nephew, Yates Edmondson, one day
last week. Mr.. Edmondson heard
his wife scream as he was approaches
ing his home and rushed into the
house to find that his nephew had
assaulted her. The young man
broke from the room and ran, but
the Infatuated husband grasped his
gun and shot, killing him Instantly.
The coroner's Jury rendered YER
dict OF justifable homicide.
On the Oconee river an enterpris
ing Dublin syndicate has floating
saw mill that is doing a good bust
ness. 1t is steamboat Of regular
pattern, with steam saw mill and
with all the paraphernalia of the
land affair. Instead Of moving the
logs to the mill they move the mill
to the trees, and when these are
sawed and sent down in barges to
the three railroads of Dublin the
boat is moved to another locality.
The enterprise is in every way a
success.

work in his shop, w. J. Dickey

past the old gentleman has been
very much Strengthened financially,
but he drew for the first time PEN

up all his debts and said: "Now l

Capt. Peak, of Hartwell, will have
to wait until the Legislature meets
before he can get his pension of $50
from the state. The delay is due to
to no fault of his, but to the rascali-
ty of some pretended friend, who,
knowing all the facts about the cap
tain's pension and war record, pass,
ed himself of as the pensioner, and
secured from the state the money
which had been appropriated to
meet this claim.

1t is stated that Japan is very

follow srit. As Japan gets coal for
