Already the sound of the hammer
and saw is to be heard at Bagley, the
new town to be established in the nor
them suburbs of Amerlcus, and very
soon sleepy old Stewards Crossing"
will be transformed as by magic into a
hustling and busy little town, the CEN
ire of the largest peach orchard in the
state
Already the first building, and big
one it is, is rapidly going up. And
there soon will be others.
The Times-Recorder's exclusive ar
ticle Wednesday morning, relative to
the investment of a hundred thousand
dollars at Bagley, was calculated to as
tonish many here, as it certainly did.
This, as fully set forth in the article,
is the planting of half million peach
trees by the Bagley Gober Orchard Co.
and the development of the largest in
dividual orchard in Georgia comprising
1900 acres. Many necessarylbuildings
for the handling and transportation of
fruit was included, besides O canning
factory, icing plant etc.
Positive assurance of the establish
ment of such an enterprise at the very
gates of Americas was we'll calculated
to surprise Americas people who
dreamed-but not of such progress aa
this.
Already start has been made in the
erection of the first building.
This is large freight depot at whai
will be the town of Bagley-old Stew
arts Crossing-designed for the storage
offertilizer, machinery, grain, building
material and whatever may be shipped
there to the Bagley-Gober Orchard Co
or others. Carpenters are now at work
upon this first building and will have
it completed IN few days,
The next buildings to go up will bt
a large grist mill, a cotton glnnery
store, debot building etc. The com
pany will push work upod the ginnery
and grist mill completing both during
the spring. Bagley will be no mush
room town for such men as FL. 9. Bag
ley, N. A. Ray and Judge George F
Gober are not given to building ali
castles TO any extent.

COMPANY is SAID TO
PLAN A BIG DEPOT.
Brewery Makes Americas

Gus VIII be Distributing Centre of
This Territory.

One of the largest breweries in the
middle west proposes to make Ameri-
Gus distributing centre in this terri
tory for its product, and to that end is
preparing to erect here at once large
cold storage depot wherein carloads of
beer can be stored away and shipped to
various points as may be required.
This will mean the investment of a
large amount of money.
The Times Recorder was informed
yesterday that the company had al
ready selected an advantageous site on
the railroad front, and would soon be-
gin work on Its depot
The company has large and rapidly
growing trade in Georgia, Florida and
Alabama, and proposes to make Ameri
Gus its main point of distribution for
this territory. No other city is so adj
vantageously situated for the purpose,
and it has been determined to erect
such building here as the trade will
require.
Itmeans the Investment of consider
able money; the sale of land and build.
ing material; employment of people
here; more taxable property. To that
end Americus will be benefited.
| Every dollar invested here in the
purchase and improvement of real es.
tate helps Americas, and there's GONG
to be plenty doing in that line this
year. People are buying property
with confidence in the stability of tht
city. They regard it now as good in
vestment and are not afraid to risl
their money here.
Americas will witness this year thu
greatest building boom IN a decade
Mark the prediction.

The city council meets in regular
session tonight, and, while no matters

At present Mr.. Charles Hawkins ie

For Delicate Children.

No one should be without olive oil, for
it is an invaluable medicine in certain cases
for a weakly or riekety child, or for one
who is recovering from typhoid fever salad
oil will sometimes work wonders. The plan
is to rub in the oil over the whole of the
childs body, especially about the upper
part. taking a few drops into the palm of
the hand at time. The nourishment thus
absorbed through the skin will be of i'm
mense service in building up the childs
strength.
When a child is suffering from severe
cold, it is a good plan to omit the daily
bath and to rub the back and chest with
olive oil. To insure further cold being
caught, the child should be wrapped in
blanket and carefully screened from the
drafts while the rubbing is being done. A
threatening of Group will often end In
threatening if olive oil and camphor be APP
piled to the childs chest. The method is
to saturate a piece of flannel with olive
oil, sprinkle 1t with a little powdered cam
phor and apply it to the chest and throat
as warm as can be borne. cover with a
piece of dry flannel and change as soon
ii gets cold.
