SWARM p. O., FITZGERALD, Dec. II.
Friend Lewis: You remember that
I told you that I should go to the COL
ony. Well, am here, and have look
edfhe matter up pretty thoroughly. 1
am satisfied that the scheme is per-
fectly honorable, and'that though the
projectors ary making lots of cash,
whoever comes here will get the worth
of his money. The land was bought
for sl.OO per acre and up, from lum-
bermen who had taken all the timber
of, and will be-sold on long time at
an advanced price. The colony is an
immense success. There are about
1000 people on the gronnd now aud
the roads are full of teams of all sorts
and the railroads bringing trainloads
of people.
The country is exclusively long leaf
pine, what they call "piney," but
with the exception.Of small part of
Miss0usi, is the most productive that
have seen since leaving Kansas. Soil
is sand almost exactly:iike our sand
on the south side of the river, and
lies just about like the, land about
Lewis. except that in every draw there
is marshy spring brook. All in all,
it is the only good land i have seen
since leaving home. The farming has
given a prejudice against the land,
because 1t would not go on producing
year after year, with no return in the
way of fertilizing. A good farmer
will make garden of It. I have seen
but one apple orchard in two weeks.
and that was as fine as one would
wish. It belongs to northern man.
Fitzgerald is town of about 23O
houses-building-and any where up
to 1000 tents. There are about 4 900
people here waiting to be located.
The town is plated, and four miles
square almost finished plated in 5
acre tracts. Then will come ten acre
lots and farms. The greatness Of the
scheme has made great delay, but in
January the shareholders will draw
lottery for the alternate lots, the
company retaining one half for future
sale.
You may tell any of the old soldiers
there are lots of vets here, and if they
want to spend tho balance of their
life in comfort, they should come
down and invest. Men from ali parts
of the world are here. To-day four of
us were talking together, one from
Maine, one from New York, one from
Indiana and one from Oregon. so they
are mixed. but you will find very few
johns in the crowd. Tie weather is
as warm and Cine as our June. 1 am
