find ii imperative for them to locate on
Staten Island
There are no fire limits for builders on
Staten Island. Frame houses can be built
anywhere. Efforts were made not many
years ago To- put an end to the erection
of frame dwellings in certain sections Of
the island Ii was suggested that these
fire limits be described in the then pro-
posed building code II such efforts had
been successful they would have seriously
affected the upbuilding Of various sections
of the island. There is little building con-
gestion here 10 make iustihable the adop-
ton of such measures at the present time.
The Board Of Aldermen have the power
To establish fire limits at any time.
Within the next five or six years il may
be necessary to prohibit frame construc-
ton in parts OF New Brighton and In
other places of the island wherever build
iugs are put up close TO one another or
In long rows.
Certain provisions of the tenement house
lew have worked considerable hardship
with speculative builders of tenement

LEE COUNTY Land SOLD
AT FIFTY DOLLARS ACRE
Hooks Ests near Adams Sold Recently at that Prize to Mr.
Valentine Rogers Of Sumter County. Land Values IN
Lee County Are Constantly Increasing.

Fifty dollars per acre was the
neat sum realized by Mr.. " W.
Hooks Tuesday in the sale OF his
home estate of 206 acres at Adams
to Mr.. Valentine Rogers Of Sumter
county. The sale Of this land is a
fair index Of tho increase in value
that is being shown BY Lee county
lands recently.
The farm is very good one, the
soil being of fertile and productive
nature. There are acres and acres
0 land in Lee county as good Or
even better than the Hooks estate,
however, to which the attention o.
worthy white farmers from northern
Georgia and all parts Of the state IS
directed.
Mr.. Hooks, who is well known
throughout this county and section
is now in search Of another desirable
estate upon which to make bis home.
He will probably purchase another
farm, either in Lee county or sum
ter, and continue asa ia mer. Inc
appreciation in value Of the land
sold by Mr.. Hooks since ne first
came into possession Of it has been
very large so that he protited well
by the sale.
The many land sales in Lee coun-
~ recently show the activity OF the
citizens of the county in building UP
this section. This will prove an
unusually active year in the real
estate world, and doubtless a large
number Of white farmers will come
to make their home in Lee county
before the year is over. The land
here is fertile and suited to practi-
cally all crops, while it may still be
obtained at price that is not pro-
hibitive to the farmer who wishes all
that can be had in the way of adj
vantages, such as schools, good
water and other necessities.

William H. Long Was
Installed As Judge,
Sketch OF his Life in Quit
man Paper.

The New Year marked a momen-
tous event in the career Of at least
two young professional men Of Quit
man-Mr. William Henry Long and
Mr.. John E. Morris, Jr. who assum-
ed the important duties Of that Off
cial conduct Of the City Court. Hav-
ing been elected as judge and soil
citor, respectively of this institution,
they begin their new duties eager
to justify the people choice Of them
and it is expected they will make
splendid records.
Judge Long led the entire tick
ct in the general election last fall.
He had expected to win, every cam
didate being optimistic to that ex-
tent, but his modesty had never as
pired to a position at the head Of
the ticket, especially whenthere were
real politicians who readily admitted
they would be capable of heading
the ticket. Naturally Judge Long
felt very much gratified at this trib-
ute,
.Tudge Long ought to come into
the honors of his new position by
natural inheritance. His father,
Judge Henry L. Long, has been judi
ge of the County Court of Lee coun-
ty and of tile City Court Of Leesburg
after it was established for twenty
five years. He is a prominent figure
| in his home section and his son
took to the law" as a profession
almost inevitably.
Judge Long lived in Lee county
the home Of his birth, until he came
to Quitman in January, 1904. He
was student Of Mercer University
five years, graduating in the literary
department in 1902 and in the law
debartment IN 1908.
Coming to Quitman in 1904 he
hung out his shingle and began the
practice Of his profession. His rec
ord since then is, as heinsists, not
different from that Of any other
young lawyer" While he is not a
native son OF Brooks, he is a SON
in-law, having married Miss Agnes
Chapman, the grand daughter Of
the late DR.. Hitch, Of Morven, who
was one Of the most prominent citi-
zens Of the county in his day. They
have a beautiful little daughter,
Catherine and their home life is Il
deal. And while it may seem irrele-

Danger To Meats In
This Warm Weather
Farmers of Lee May Sus-
tam Loss

The unusually warm weather pre-
vailing here during the past few
days may, if continued, entail loss
upon Lee county farmers in the
spelling of their meat supply. Dur
ing the cold weather last Wednes-
day and Thursday many fine hogs
we're killed, one farmer alone hav-
ing killed twenty very large ones.
Warm weather following may
cause consie cradle loss, unless the
fresh meat is packed away in ice,
at additional expense, until a cold
wave comes to insure the safety Of
the meat.
