SKETCH OF CHARLES [. ANSLEY.
His Career in the Mercantile World
of AmeriCuS---SuCCeSSfuI Agri-
CuIturiSt as Well as Bust
ness Man.
SKETCH OF CHARLES [. ANSLEY.

Mr.. Charles Lee Ansley, whose
portrait is given herewith, was born
in Cuthbert Randolph county, Geor-
gia, October 81, 1860. He is the son of
Mr.. Thomas w. AnsIey, a successful
planter of that county. His mother
was the daughter of Mr.. H. Elan, a
former we'll known citizen and bust
ness man of Americas.
Mr.. Ansley received a common
school education in Cuthbert until he
was twelve years of age. At that time
he went to work on the farm for three
years, his father, like so many other
Southerners, having lost the greater
part of his worldly goods by the war.
While on the farm, though, Mr..
Ansley attended school after the crop
was laid by.
Early in 1873, the family came to
Amercus to live. Soon after, the boy,
full of the ambition of youth to ac-
lively connect himself with the bust
ness world, secured a situation in the
dry goods house of NJ. Wechsler & Co.
In December, 1880, he went to work
for Mr.. Thornton Wheatley as sales
man, situation in which he remain
ed until 1890.
In that year he purchased a half in
terest in the business and the entire
charge of the same was turned over to
him, Mr.. Wheatley retiring from &C
tive mercantile life. The firm name
was Wheatley 81 Ansley, and cons
tinued as such until February, 1905,
when Mr.. Ansley bought from Mr..
Wheatley his remaining interest.
The partnership of fifteen years and
business association of approximately
twenty five years was about as
pleasant as ever existed. From Febru-
arY, 1905, Mr.. Ansley has continued
the business in his own name.
In December, 1885, EEr. Ansley was
married to Miss May Speer, of Ameri-
Gus, daughter of Maj. Moses Speer, one

of its most prominent citizens. Three
children have blessed the union, two
boys and girl. The two boys,
Charles and Eustace, are now actively
identified with the business of their
father.
Mr.. Ansley is a member of the
Methodist church. He has always
lead very active business life. He
and industry is an inseparable part
of his nature. He never takes an
extended vacation, but being fond of
the gun and fine horses occasionally
slips away from business cares during
hunting season for little sport.
In addition to his extensive mercan-
tile interests Mr.. Anslev owns and
operates farm of approximately one
thousand acres, known as "Tallow-
town Farm" which has always been
money maker for him. 1t is con-
nected with the city by a telephone
line built at his own expense.
Although located five and a half
miles south of Americas Mr.. Ansley is
enabled to manage this farm in a high
ly satisfactory way. There he raises
large quantities of corn, cotton, Berk-
shire hogs, and Georgia cane syrup.
He has also twenty five thousand peach
trees. He has demonstrated that the
application of business methods to
farming brings success in that line of
work as well as in the mercantile
career.

his last annual message the President
says: 1T is probable that the pres
ent grazing value of the open public
range is scarcely more than half what
it once was or what it might easily be
again under careful regulation"
Some stockmen have, to the exclr,
sion of others, possessed themselves OF
the strategic positions-that is, the
lands controlling the streams, springs,
and other watering places, and by this
means have secured temporary con.
troll of the adjoining grazing lands.
Charges of fraudulent entry have led
to litigation. Great areas. have been
illegally fenced. Again, stock own
ers, notably sheep and cattle men,
have defended their conflicting claims
by force of arms, causing serious
loss of property and even of life.
Obviously such conditions should be
corrected by law. The remedy would
seem to be to apply to the open pub
lie range the regulations already gov
erning the forest reserves. This con-
clusion is strengthened not only by
the success attending the forest-re-
serve policy, but also by the effect of
fencing the public grazing lands.
Though illegal, this fencing has in
most cases greatly improved the con.
dition of the area inclosed. Care,
however, must be taken to avoid the
application of sweeping and ironclad
regulations to an area so vast and to
conditions so different. The investi-
cations of the Public Lands Commits
sion show that immediate application
of any infexible rule to all grazing
lands alike, regardless of local condi-
lions or grazing values, would be dis
astrous, and, that Improvement must
be sought through the gradual intro
ducton into each locality of such form
of control as is specifically suited to
it.
In his message, already referred to,
the President says:
The best use of the public grazing
land requires the careful examination
and classification of these lands In or
der to give each settler land enough
to support his family and no more
While this work is being done, and I'M
til the lands are settled the govern
ment should take control of the open
range, under reasonable regulations
suited to local needs, following the
general policy already In successful
operation on the forest reserves"
Should the policy thus suggested be
by law great good would
result.

Etiquette of CannihaIism.

Even among the savages of French
Africa, who eat human flesh, there
are differences" said Paul Pucci,
young Italian traveller. Some while
ago, when exploring that country,
learned an odd bit about lac ways q
the various tribes. In majority o.
them cannibalism is INDUCED only
when the bodies are those of prisoners
taken in battle. 1t is all right to
eat persons who belong to hostile
clans, but it would be a gross viola
ton of tradition and the custom of
the land to feast upon friends or even
upon members of the same tribe.
delicacy of sentiment however, is not
universal, and in one tribe in particu-
lar, where | noted the absence of any
old persons, | learned that it was the
proper thing to add the aged inhablr-
ants to the local food supply. This
confined the population to the young
and hardy for at the first signs of
decreptitude the boiling pot was call
ed into Washington Post.
