OCILLA NEWS NOTES.
People JubiIant over Coming of u.
& b. Railroad.

& b. Railroad.
Ocilla, Ga, Oct. 29.-Mr F. F. Wis.,
scher of the Brunswick and Birming-
ham Railroad informed your CORE
spondent that the work of cutting the
right-of-way between Waters Crossing,
eight miles west of Douglas, and Ocilla,
began this morning and that he ex-
pected to have 300 hands on the road
before the end of the week. Mr.. Wis
scher further stated that the road
would be completed to Ocilla by March
1.
Our people are highly elated over the
certainty Of DELLA getting this impor-
tant outlet to tide water, as 1t will
give her choice of two of the best sea-
ports on the Atlantic coast.
Mrs. Mcmillan died last Wednesday
at the home of her son, Mr.. Jacob Nc
MILAN, in the eastern part of the coun-
ty. She was known to thousands of
people as Aunt Peggy Mcmillan, and
was in her nth year. She was the
mother of twelve children, all but one
of whom survive her.
Mrs. Mcmillan was the widow of the
late Archie Mcmillan, a pioneer citizen
of Irwin, and sister Of the late Elder
Jacob Young, noted Primitive Bsp-
fist divine of this county. She was
for many years a devout member of
the Primitive Baptist Church.
The farmers in this section are not
Complaining, though both corn and
cotton failed to come up to expecta-
tions. There are individual farmers
who made full crops of cotton, and Mr.
Newton Henderson says he made two
bales more than he planted for Mr..
j. A. j. Henderson, one of the most
progressive farmers in Wiregrass Geor-
gia, planted $50 acres in cotton, ex-
pecting to be well satisfied with 300
bales. Mr.. John d. Paulk, his energetic
superintendent, says they have already
ginned and sold 1926 bales, and that
there are at least rs more in sight. In
addition to this, he has made over 1000
bushels of corn, and plenty of stoves
and the best grass and peavine hay to
feed all his stock and cattle a year.
This is exceptionally fine farming, but
it will be improved on.
The work of taking the trees and
stumps out of the fields increases each
year, as the farmers realize that this
work must be done before rabor-saving
machines can be used profitably.
Several prominent farmers, large land
owners of the county, are advocating
the no-fence law. There may be a con-
certed move made in less than a year
to test the will of the people upon this
question.
Ocilla has heard so much about the
immense profits to be made through
the dispensary plan, that she has ar
ranged her mind to try 1t herself, and
we look for a shop of this kind to
start up with the new year. 1t may
be an improvement on the open-saloor
plan, If the blind tigers can be kept
out of town.
The County Commissioners have de.
cided to put the misdemeanor convicts
to work on the public roads after
