CAMP GREENE

Approximately 10000 acres of land

ment for the accommodation of the
troops from the New England States

camp is located on a tract embracing
$500 acres lying three miles west
OF the city, an area of open fields and
wooded sections, cotton and corn plan
tations and apple and peach or
chards.
A present force of workmen, num-
bering more than 1000 men are rapid

Streets are being laid out, hills are
being rolled into the valleys that have
been lying at their feet, street car

of telephone and telegraph lines are
being strung. 1t is to be a veritable

now taking place as if by magic.
Train loads of materials are arriv-

the necessary equipment going into
the work of construction. The camp
site is accessible already to the city
by means of improved highways of
