HOLD TIGHT TO FARM LANDS

Into the South is coming pros
perity unheard of before long. The
South is the favored section of the
United States and there is no rea-
son, as the Macon News well says,
why it should not become richer
and more prosperous even than the
North.
"The Athens Banner sees no
reason why, at this time when the
tide of prosperity is turning this
way, that the people of the South
and of Georgia especially men,
tioned-shouldsell their birthright
for amess of pottage. GWhile moth
ing should be done todiscourage
worthy Immigrants says the Ban
ner, and while no obstacle should
be cast across the path of any
worthy man who wishes to help
develop this state, it should never
theless be drilled into the minds
and hearts of Georgians that they
should not part too willingly with
their farm lands.
''There has for years been a
tendency on the part of our farm
ers to borrow money from North
ern or foreign companies, in many
cases more money than they needed,
and on failure to pay it back they
parted title forever with their
lands. 1t has also been quite COM
mon for them to sell their lands
move into the cities and after
spending all their money find out
only too late thatthey had made a
serious mistake.
"The Georgia farmer who sells
all his land now and goes to the
city is laying up trouble for the
future. If he has too much land
to cultivate and not enough money
to hold it, it is the policy of good
common sense to sell some of it,
but enough should be retained to
answer all his purposes.
agricultural education will in
the largest measure settle these
perplexing questions, and the
young Georgians of the present
day are to be given the very best
chances to secure this agricultural
education. Through the state col.
lege of agriculture, through Far.
mers' Institutes and various other
sources the young farmers of the
state will be trained for their work
in the future.
"By all means let Georgians
hold to their lands and stick te
their farms. 1t mean indepen.
dence for them.'
