THE CRISP ROAD.

Editor of Enterprise: In your
Issue of January 16, there was a
communication in regards to the
old river road from Fitzgerald to
Crisp and the river, and for the
benefit of the enquirer of wv, -
will say that there is public
road granted by the County Com
missioners from Fitzgerald tothe
river road, but through the neg
ligence of the Dist. Commission
ers it has not been cut out or
worked on account Of some
kickers or kicker, because the
road was not run angling through
the county from the city, cutting
the five and ten acre tracts into
three cornered pieces and maxi
ing them worthless for any pur-
pose whatever, where the road
is located is on as good ground as
can be found for the line between
the city and the river, for the
parties that located the route
went o"er different lines with the
view to getting the best with the
least hills and swampy ground to
build the road with the least ex-
pense. The most of the route
selected has very good graveled
roads on them now and are ira
veled by nearly all who GO from
the city to the river, and is kept
in passable condition by the par
ties who live on the road. Now
we would like to see the road cut
out and put in shape for travel,
and there are parties working up
a rural delivery mail route which
will be a benefit to the county
through which it goes. Let us
have the old Golden Rule applied,

be done by" SHORTY.

some fellow is always ready to
protest that the land is too poor
KANT raise nothin' ONT )"
Unfortunately we have some of
that kind of pessimistic grumb-
lers, both native and imported.
And from their point of view
there is no country in which thew
can do we'll. But to say that land
that produces perpetual crop of
nutritious grasses and grows
pine trees five feet in diameter
and a hundred feet tall has no
productive qualities, is absolutely
false. When the true value of
this soil is known, and the pro-
cess discovered, by which it's
producing elements can be made
available, it will produce every
thing as we'll as it now, in it's
natural condition, produces wire
grass and pine trees. I have ex-
perimented some with cassava in
the poorest soil I could find, and
the yield was good, while in bet
ter soil unaided by any fertilizing
it was remarkable, and there is
no better feed for hogs and cattle
than Cassava.
The great need of this region
is an experiment station. Indi-
vidual experiments are too ex-
pensive and unavailing. Why
not make a supreme effort for a
government experiment station
at Fitzgerald? The stations out
side the wiregrass belt will avail
us nothing, as our soil is entirely
different from any other.
A man who has any inclination
for stock raising can find no SAT-
err, and more profitable place than
right here. He can't lose any,
thing and if he tries, he can make
a success of it. D. T.
