Small Farms.
IFrom the Cordele Rambler.l


A good index of the times is the
real estate market. In dull sea-
sons, real estate is usually the
first thing that feels the depression.
The reason of this is that real
estate is most usually bought with
the surplus money which people
have in prosperous times.
We notice the formation of q
number of land companies all over
the country, which speaks we'll for
the situation. These real estate
companies buying large tracts of
land and sub-dividing them into
small farms for home-owners, are
the forerunners of progress and
development; these upset the old
landmarks of ra-conservatism
cities and planting vine
yards.
A tenant who is renting forty
acres of land from some big land
owner can easily pay for twenty
acres of land at the rate of small
payment down and monthly in
stallments for the balance, which
come about like rent. The twenty
acres will yield him about as much
as the forty rented acres because,
owning it, he will devote more
time to it's improvement and build
ing mp.
We would be glad to see Cordele
men buy large tract of farm
lands and divide it up into small
farms for sale to thirty men; it
would mean more to our city than
more brick stores.

bers church has the higher salary
he can command. A reputation IL
v hat many of them are striving for.
Different denominations are con.
more room for preachers at good
salary. In many places where there
are just enough church.going people
to fill two churches there are likely
to be half dozen. And yet all claim
to have the same goal in view. Christ
only established one church, but
which one was it? Why the differ.

ligion Is a strange proposition these
days, and the deeper one delves the
more confused he becomes.
We believe minister should re-
ceive fair compensation for his la.
bors, as the laborer should be worthy
of his hire. but we believe IL should
come rather as a free will offering
from the people than as demand
from the minister. The Divine com.
mand was to go out and preach the
gospel without purse or scrip, but
we concede that times have changed
and men have changed with them,
yet the principle remains. We may
be wrong In our conception OF the
salary question relating to the min.
lister, yet we cannot help but think
when instances like the above are
brought to our notice that there is
