l am Canadian. For many years l was
engaged in the lumber business, but
changed to farming few years ago. Be
fore doing so / prospected over this state,
the greater portion of Florida and Ala
bama, and decided to cast my lot in the
wire-grass pine lands of Georgia. This is
termed one of the the new counties, as it
had no railroads until five years ago, and
but few settlers only within reach of the
Ocmulgee river, which is navigable.
Those were principally engaged in raising
sheep and cattle. Land can be bought
for from S. to $40 per acre. There are
good openings here for farmers. Most of
the aroduce finds home market at good
prices. l raised this year 1000
bushels of oats (rust proof, worth
from so to 60 cents per
bushel. cut the oats in May, put on
some fertilizers, plowed, narrowed and
rolled the land, and cut from the same
ground from one to two tons of arst-class
hay, worth here from SIS to 500 per ton.
1t is called crow-foot grass, and comes up
spontaneously after land has been cultiva-
ted few years. German millet also does
well. Sown in March, it is fit to cut in
ninety days, and finds ready sale at SIS to
$50 per ton. In September, from the same
land, cut one ton of good hay per acre

ground after the millet was taken off
Alfalfa is not grown here as yet but no
doubt would do well; some parties are
growing it successfully in some of the
older counties. l shall try some this
winter. The cattle and sheep are small,
never having been crossed with improved
breeds. The rule is and has always been
with stockmen to leave every tenth male
for breeding purposes. BY crossing
shropshire bucks with native
ewes, and feeding some in winter,
the lambs can be put in northern
markets one month earlier than from
Ohio. By crossing some of the improved
breeds of cattle with the native stock, in
that way obtaining good mixers, which
are worth $40 here, and keeping the
steers fat until winter, they will bring in
our home market fancy prices. There is
plenty of good beef here in summer, and
cheap. In winter our beef comes from
the north (cold storage) Milk retails for
5 cents per quart; butter from % to 40
cents per pound. There is no better sec
ton for peaches, pears and grapes, and
some varieties of apples do well here.
This is about 81 degrees north latitude.
Lung diseases are very rare. | have
lived in this county for the past ten
years, and have not had a case of fever
in my family or among my hands; nor
have | given a single dose of quinlne.
The citizens are very social and extremely
anxious for farmers to settle, as they
wish to change from raising cotton, but
hardly know how to cultivate any other
crop. Any one coming from the north
to this section will be welcomed by the
citizens.

farmers for the purpose of-what do not
know. Yet l have have had my atten-
ton called to this meeting, and have
asked to have question put to you. This

crowd of farmers there was not one that
could lay off and bed up four-acre patch.
Was there such a man in that assem- bly,?
The gentleman who puts the question is
73 years old, and claims he can do it, but
he does not believe there was delegate
