Own a Little Dirt.

We notice in the Atlanta Constitu-
ton an editorial urging young men to
invest their earnings In real estate
and that Is good service. Every young
man should make 1t point to earn O
little dirt. The Constitution cites In
its argument that there Is money In
real estate, that saying Of old General
BENJAMIN Butler: MY son, the AL
mighty Is making more folks every
day, but He Is not making any more
land" General Butler further said
that he had traversed for forty years
the route ih Boston from the Lowell
depot to his law office, and that at the
time of his speaking he could not see
along the route the signs of half a
dozen commercial firms that were in
business on that route when he first
began to travel 1t. But, on the other
hand, he did not know Of half a doZ-
en- men who had invested in real es-
tate in Boston at the beginning Of the
period and held on to 1t who were not
wealthy and solid, either for them
selves or their families, at the end Of
that period. That is about the state
Of things everywhere. The man who
buys a piece Of real estate at a rea-
sonable price, as a rule, makes good
investment. There is such a thing as
being land poor, but there are 1t
many men who are land poor. We
repeat that every young man should
make an effort TO own a piece Of the
SOIL There Is no better savings bank
than is a judicious investment IN real
estate. Dirt does not shrink up nor
move away.-Monroe Enquirer.
