The Georgetown Plan.

Enterprising Georgetown county
Will bear watching. Georgetowns
land development idea is going 10
succeed, and its success means yalu-
able results to Georgetown's growth.
Because Of Charleston's superior To-
cation and greater progress In drain
age work. Georgetown's success will
leave this county little excuse for not
taking up the farm settlement
scheme and making it flourish here.
Georgetown needs smaller farming
communities honeycombed In it's
timber denuded territory. and so
does Charleston. Steady growth
within our limits appears to be an
assured fact, for an intelligent and
energetic campaign will soon be
opened by trained commercial Sec
retary to accelerate the pace already
set by our awakened spirit Of prog
ress. But If our suburban territory
be not peopled with prosperous agri-
culturists, Industrious and in strong
numbers, we must remain more or
less isolated. and we may hardly hope
to increase in population SO rapidly
as our superb natural advantages
warrant.
There is ample territory in Char
lesion county just as there is in
Georgetown county suited admirably
t,r small farming. Charleston has
the advantage over Georgetown OF
we'll developed drainage system,
; and more railroad facilities. What
Charleston lacks at present is unit
/ ed effort to advertise our farm lands
/ and disposition to provide capital
to help a good class Of settlers start
on 6. solid financial basis.
Georgetown business men have ad-
vanced necessary money, they lave
secured special rates into their terri
tory and they have covered a wide
territory with advertising matter.
Moreover, 1000 acres Of land have
been set aside for farm development,
and this land Is being surveyed and
drained. Georgetown banks stand
ready to lend money to the newcom-
ers, and Georgetown citizens wait to
welcome the strangers to promised
, prosperity. In a few months the
fruit Of this enterprise will ripen.
| Charleston should keep in close touch
with its quality and svalue.-Charles-
