Georgia Man Has Worlds Only Terrapin Farm
Discovers How to Incubate the Diamond Back
Alexander NJ, Barbee, of Sayan-

He Can Prevent Extinction,

SAVANNAH, July Sat Isle
Of Hope. a Savannah suburb, is the
only farm in the world where diamond
back terrapin are Matched and reared
by artificial means Alexander NJ.
Barbee, proprietor Of this unique in
dustry. has solved the problem Of
terrapin propagation. He claims to
hatch and rear more young terrapin
than the females themselves, because

young from the enemies Of the turtle

cities
Barbee now has a business that
brings him a handsome income. He
has done what experts at Washing
ton failed 10 do. He has hit upon a
method Of incubation. His discov-
cry was accidental but IL probably
means the prevention OF the ex-
tinction Of the diamond back terra
pin.
The terrapin farm at Isle Of Hope
Is one OF the show places OF Savan-
nah Thousands visit Il annually.
Five hundred baby terrapin were sold
to tourists as souvenirs last winter.
There are more than 5000 terra pin

a marketable age.

Terrapin intended for the market
are kept segregated, and there Is a

The loss by death is exceedingly
small The terrapin are sold nv the
dozen and In barrel lots through the
winter season
Artificial incubation Of tarrapin
eggs heretofore has ben considered an
impOssibility. There are now 5000
eggs in the incubators, and the 1T

SKEXTENSION
Of STATE ROAD
VIA NAYCROSS
Several Counties Organizing to
Push Senator Sweat's Scheme
for Lengthening Line,

WAYCROsS, July 5.-Several
counties are discussing the organiza-
ton of an association for the purpose
Of promoting the suggested route for
the State railroad extension via Fort
Valley and Waycross to st. Marys
and Jacksonville.
Right Of way through nearly all
counties named by Judge Sweat in
his resolution before the Georgia SEN
ate will be given to the State, and
some counties have gone further and
agreed to use their convicts in build
ing the roadbed. This, IT is argued,
will materially reduce the cost
WayCross for a number of years
has hoped for the extension. Because
Of the low cost of constructing a
road along what is known as the
ridge route of Georgia, which would
bring the road via Waycross, the ter
ritory traversed is among that in the
State undergoing most rapid develop
ment. The State owns vast termi-
nails already at St. Marys, and this is
a fact that it is thought will have
much weight with the commission if

Barbee once went into the pens wear

in a panic OF fear.
Barbees dogs run about the farm
at will, carefully avoiding stepping on
the terrapin. which pay not the least
attention.
Barbee's particular favorite among
the terrapin is Toby Nobody knows
precisely how old Toby is. He was
among the first terrapin Barbee Sc
cured and he was already an adult
when he first came to the farm Toby
lives in a fountain in the center of
Barhee's restaurant. The alligators
grew up with Toby. Toby is as gen

Change Is Planned
In Waycross Board
Membership Is To Be Increased
From Six to Seven II New
Bill 10 Passed.

wAYCROSS, July Sit looks as il
the Ware County Board Of Commission
ers will continue in politics, despite the
efforts made at last years session OF
the Legislature to get the board out OF
politics The proposed changes in the
act creating the board removes from
the Grand Jury the privilege Of select
ing the commissioners and puts the
boards election back to the people.
The number on the board is to be
increased from six to seven, four to
come from the Waycross district and
three from country districts. The
chairman, instead of having to be one
of the Waycross commissioners, is to
be elected by the board regardless of
his place of residence.
A feature of the change as now ad-
vocated is the creation OF a board of
information" consisting of one mem
Der from each of the ten districts in
Ware County. This board Is to make
recommendations for road work and
construction The board, if the act
passes, win have to maintain a repair
gang, to be on hand for hasty work

is to-day the biggest living man II
the United States, if not in all Ameri-

Incidentally, he enjoys also the dis

Average Weight 500 Pounds.
Brinson's average weight is $50
pounds. He has passed the 500 mark
and has been as low as $50 pounds.
The man supposed to have been the
worlds largest man was reported to
weigh only 565 pounds. and if this
record is authentic, Brinson heads the
list for the world so far as size
goes.
He is a turpentine operator and a
crosstie dealer He is interested in
real estate and farms, too. and is as
active in looking after business as

WAYCROSS. July 5.-Rapid progress
has been made by the construction
forces Of the Waycross and Western,
and II seems that soon from eight to
ten miles more of the new railroad will
be put into service, The line is being
built from Waycross toward the GeOr-

that with connections and other extern
sions the line is going into West Geor-

Alex X. Seasons, president of the
road, is spending most of his time with
the construction force.
The next extension that will be
opened to traffic will be the one to
Sirmans in Clinch County, the home of

When this is finished the road will add
