The Sunny South,

Now when all outdoor farm work
has ceased in the north, the term
Sunny south" and all that it means,
appeals with full force to the northern
farmer as he realizes that with him
1t is case of remaining indoors for
the next several months consuming
everything that has been produced
during the growing season. In the
sunny south" something can be
raised every month in the year, and
practically every day can be spent out
doors. No billiards.. No sunstrokes.
Cattle-raising is very profitable. Large
profits are made with little labor in
growing fruits, vegetables, etc, for
northern markets. Strawberries and
cantaloupes are great revenue getters.
Water unsurpassed. Work plentiful.
Lands cheap and productive. For re-
liable information, address G.. A. Park,

school pupils, 1853 were dropped after
