ual simplicity and loveliness.

In accordance with his custom. MT
Belasco withholds information as to
the details of the play for the opening
night, and beyond the fact that it is
rich in poetic charm and will present
Miss Starr in a girlish role that Is
noted for its spirituality and lowell
as to 'Marie-odile." 1t is. however
the first one of Mr.. Knoblauch's plays
to be produced and presented for the
first time in this country.

In previous issues of this paper I have
stated absolute facts about the superior
advantages of farming in Florida. Also in
describing my Farm Land proposition a
Bridgeport on the ST. Johns river near
Tasting and Federal Point Further
more upon investigation it will be found
fifty per cent better than I have stated.
This opportunity should appeal es-
pecially to the Georgia farmer for the
following reasons The soil cannot be ex-
celled for its fertility and its adaption to
general farming, exactly such as the
Georgia farmers have been familiar with.
Almost every kind of agricultural product
can be successfully grown on this land.
It's unlimited and unfailing supply Of
water for irrigation, which is absolutely
essential in every country where intensive
farming is carried on:- Irrigation can be
more easily accomplished and at less ex-
pense here than any place I know Of The
lay of this land is such that the drainag.
proposition is all that can be desired.
THE GROWING OF IRISH POTATOES
This land is part of the famous Has
tings Irish Potatoes region. In this i'm
mediate section there are more than ten
thousand acres planted each year IN Irisl
The Marietta journal and courier. (Marietta, Ga.) 1909-1918, 1915-08-06

Twenty acres of this land can be fenced
and cleared ready for the pillow with a
flowing well for irrigation at a cost of
One Thousand to Twelve Hundred Dol
lars including the purchase price of the
land. This investment with proper atten-
ton will produce net income of One
Thousand to Fifteen Hundred Dollars an
nually.
SUMMING UP.
We have endeavored in as few words
as possible to give an outline of the vast
possibilities of intensive farming in Flor
ida. We have told but part of the most
striking facts, since it would take large
volumn of type and pictures to adequate

I am in Marietta now and will be most

arrange an early date with cheap rail.
