A SOUTHERN FARMER WHO

A rare type OF the Southern planter
is exemplIied in the person of Mr..
Isaac M. Meekins, of Woodstock
Manor, Halifax county, n. c., and
these facts about him may prove in
teresting 10 people who imagine that
agriculture in the South is poor
business. Mr. Meekins is guest of
the National, and looks more like a
prosperous professional man than a
farmer from the cotton belt.

the first person." said he. "but my
