SOME MORE GOOD ADVICE.
Don't talk hard times. II there is
any thing to the hard time talk it
wont help things to talk about them;
it wont prevent them being here.
Just keep a stiff upper lip and say
that we have the best country in
the world-but don't stop there
help a little in the development Of
this section. Lend your aid tothose
who are striving day in and day
out to boost; don't try to throw a

are the very best friends that you
have. -Richland Georgian.

mosquitoes that last year at one
time there were over so cases Of
malarial fever adjoining this river.
So not only are our lands affected,
but the health and lives Of QUO peo-
pie. This drainage proposition is a
big one, but the time has come fer
usto tackle it. The law and plan
how in force are just equitable. The
government makes the survey free,
and the land benefited pays the
bill for the actual work done. Let's
get busy and inform ourselves as to
this drainage business and especial
ly as relating to your respective

The Drainage Proposition In
Georgia.

On May 23d we attended a very
interesting session Of the Drainage
Congress for North Eastern Georgia,
held at Commerce, in Jackson coun-
ty. This was an eye-opener to US,
we knew that there was necessity
for drainage down along the coast,
but the extent of the acreage need
ing drainage far exceeded our eaE-
culations and that our Piedmont
creeks and rivers had s. much land
unfit for cultivation was great
surprise to us. In Georgia we have
q total of 2, 700, 900 acres that needs
to be drained, or one acre in every
fourteen. This is too large percent
age Of land to lie unreclaimed in
such a state as Georgia. We also
got more fully acquainted with the
work pow being done on Big Hay
mes Creek" in Gwinnett county,
and of other similar proposed jobs
under contemplation. The plan of
operation is this; The United States
Government gives as many dollars
as the State Legislature will appro-
pirate, and this money is used to
pay expert engineers to make sur
vey OF any water basin and creek or
river, and furnish and estimate Of
the cost of canal that will give
sufficient drainage to any locality
needing it. Then the cost of the
work is apportioned to the land
drained and this land must pay its
proportion OF the cost. Some sections
issue bonds, but local bankers in
the majority Of the sections arrange
to pay the expenses and give the
landlords so many years to pay it
back, Mr.. Philips, who has this sur
veying business in charge has more
applications than he can fill at pre-
sent. The next Georgia Legislature
will be asked to appropriate $1,000
to carry on this work, They should
vote SO, 900, and any legislator not
voting for this Bill, should be left
at home, as one thoroughly incapac-
itated for his job, and uninformed
as to the needs of his state.
As an example of the necessity
for this matter, even in the hill
country, we have but to mention
an instance in Banks county. On
Grove river there is an area Of some
/ 500 or :, 200 acres of bottom rem
dered too wet for cultivation and
this marshy land has bred so many
