little later the same query was heard
when the baggage arrived at the Van

the trunks and bags belonged to G. T..

1.-The South, as an agricultural
section, is just beginning to
find itself, and once she falls IN
to her stride there is scarcely
any limit to her, possibilities for
diversified production" writes
Barton w. Currie, formerly a
we'll known newspaper man on
the New York World, in the first
of a series of articles on "nown
South The New Era of Opt
mism and Opportunity, which
begins in February IA issue OF
The Country Gentleman. There
is every fundamental reason to
day for the South to lead the
Nation in the production of beef
cattle, pork and mutton; more
over, there is every where in
the South what the lawyers call
newly discovered evidence to
prove that the possibilities are
being capitalized and will event
ually pay splendid dividends.
The economic cutoff is straight
away South.

South has every apparent rea-
son to stay at home and grow
