HELP OF COUNTY IS
SOUGHT BY BOARD
For Bringing of Immigrants
Here.
SUCH ACTION WAS SUGGESTED
At Meeting of Board of Trade In Dis
cussion Ct immigration Question.
Board Will Continue to Try for Day
Current for AmerIcus.

To the end of inducing foreign immi-
grafton to come TO Sumter county
sturdy farmers CT Canada, Norway,
Sweden and Holland-the Americas
Board of Trade is going to ask t1e
county commissioners of Sumter to ad-
vertlse our advantages abroad.
It is proposed TO tell these people,
thousands of whom are anxious to come
to America, of our advantages as
place of location, and to tell the story
IN their own language.
The is considered the best means of
getting the facts before them: carry
the news to their homes.
The Board has proposition from
we'll known and reliable agency which
proposes, for certain price, 10 place
an amount of advertising matter in
hundred foreign newspapers having a
large crcu ation where these thrifty
farmers live.
Il will tell the story of Sumter; our
soil, climate and products; price of
lands and great deal of valuable in
formation.
It will tell these farmers who want to
come to the ttates just what they wish
to know; what they need to know. and
what they will never know unless they
are furnished the information as sug-
gested. Such missionary work must
be done among them.
Already we have several of these
people in Sumter county, and thrifty
and desirable citizens they all are
We want thousand more of them.
The cost of advertising is not great,
and as it is for the benefit Of the en-
tire county the Board will ask the
county commissioners to aid in this
great work of information and educa-
ton. A committee from the Board will
present the matter in due time,
At this meeting of the Board of
Trade it was resolved to push the mat
ter of a day electric current in Amerl-
Gus, go much needed in promoting our
manufacturing interests.
Relative to the improvement of Cot
ton avenue by laying it in gravel, the
material to be supplied by the Central
Railway, letter was read by the secre.
tary wherein the railway company de-
clined the request and assigned sew
eral reasons for so doing.
The main reasons given were that
such aid extended Americus would es-
tablish q precedent and, secondly. that
the company had no gravel pit nearer
than Augusta from which to procure
material.
