AMERICUS Still
THE MECCA
OF MANY
Other Investors Are Coming
to Sumter
Mere CaFOIlnianS Will Come This Week
to Buy Farms in This COunty.--Why
They are Attracted Here and What
Holds Them as Permanent Citizens

The Carolina Colony" in Sumter
county. and a splendid one it is, to
be sure, will be still further increas-
ed this week in the coming here II
other thrifty farmers anxious to in
vest their money in the best farming
lands in Georgia and live in peace,
prosperity and contentment here N
this favored region.
In this way Sumter county has re-
Gently secured nearly two-score most
desirable citizens, all coming from
South Carolina, while the purchases
of farming lands by them alone with
in the past twelve months will total
nearly 100000.
This seem a fabulous statement but
is absolutely correct, as the records
will show.
And others still are coming to
South Georgia. Not only do they stop
in Sumter, the vast majority Of them
but 60 as we'll into Terrell and Lee
counties where lands are cheaper
Three sales closed last week total
more than $4,000, R. P. Stackhouse
buying two farms, one of $40 acres
and the other of 1000 acres.
These thrifty Carolinians are at
tracted here by the fine soil and eli
nate and also by the fine graded
roads of Sumter which radiate from
Americas in ten directions, piercing
every section Of the county.
Once a Carolinian rides in a swift
automobile over one of these high-
ways-fner than the average city
street-his mind is made up and he BE-
comes a land owner in a day.
Here he sees gasoline engines, plen-
t. Of them, in plowed fields pulling
25-disc piows through the soft, rea
land, as rich as that Of any section
OF the South. Here ne can see
quarter million acres Of fine lands un-
der intensive cultivation
Here he sees $4,000 acres in fine
oats in verdant beauty; the lands to be
planted afterwards in cotton or pea
vines for hay. Here he sees 100000
peach trees growing in the four fin
est orchards in the world
On all of the 100 miles OF beauti-
fully graded county roads he sees
handsome and well kept farm houses
and thrifty and contented people.
He sees sixty-three public schools out
in the rural districts and in Americas
he sees $50 white children in two
handsome, modern school buildings
AID $50 negro children in public and
private schools.
All of these advantages attract new
corners to Americas and Sumter coun-
ty, and the tide will increase as the
opportunities here are better under
stood.
