BIG AGRICULTURE LAND OPENING
TWELVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY TRACTS of five and ten acres each to be granted to prospective set
tlers in throwing open Twenty Thousand Acres of Rich, Southern Georgia Land, which is admirably adapted to
the growing of celery, sweet and Irish potatoes, cantel oupes, water melons, corn, oats, cotton, hay in fact,
all staple crops grown in this fertile section, as well as a large variety of semi-tropical fruits, and the famous
immensely profitable paper-shell pecans.
Providing you are eligible under the classif icati ons prescribed by us, you are now offered an excellent
opportunity to break away from the drudgery and toil of of a small wage, or working for the benefit of land
lords, and go back to a land of plenty, to which, if gra nted, you will hold a warranty deed and abstract
The best security on earth is the earth itself, and land is the basis of all wealth. Owners of productive
lands are benefiting by the increasing high cost of Uvi ng, while others are suffering from it.
An Opportunity to Secure Rich Productive Land vVithout Capital
You will not be required to leave your present
surroundings now. All we ask of those to whom we
grant tracts is that they plant, or arrange to have
planted, a crop of one of the above-mentioned pro
ducts within three years, after which we will have it
operated( harvested and replanted) for grantees, in
consideration of 25 per cent, of the net profits de
rived from the sale of the crops, thereby allowing
the grantee to pursue his or her present occupation
until such time as they determine just what the
yield of their acres amounts to. Consider what this
may mean as a source of income, when statistics
3how that the yield of one acre of celery amounted
to $1,268.45, and that one acre of well-cared-for ,
paper shell pecans, in full bearing, should net its
owner as high as $500.00 per year. We are of the
opinion that after it is proven, by actual results ob
tained in operating the land that they will need no
further urging, and waste no time in locating ia this
land of plenty. We also require grantees to occupy
the land within ten, years, or sell it to some one who
will occupy it; otherwise it reverts back to the
grantor.
The land included in this opening is located di
rectly on and adjoining the Atlanta, Birmingham
and Atlantic Railroad, about twenty-five miles west
of Brunswick, a thriving city of fifteen, thousand,
having direct steamship service to New York and
Boston, and excellent railroad transportation facil
ities to all points. The average temperature for six
months of the year, from April to October, is 77 de
grees; the climate is most healthful, delightful, and
invigorating, and there is an ample rainfall of 51 -inches
per year.
Our Aim Is for Mutually Beneficial Results.
As we are extremely desirous of having set
tlers locate on this property, and assist in its de
velopment, and thereby greatly increase the value
of surrounding and intervening property, which we
will hold, and to increase the traffic along the At
lanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Raihoad, and thus
facilitate the service, we feel warranted in granting
these tracts to those who register with us. We
also have in mind business and residence plots which
we will offer for sale aftpr the opening, but which
will not be included in it We have "money-making
afterward" considerations in this liberal-minded
opening, similar to those of the Northern Pacific
and other railroads when they granted their lands,
and we expect to benefit thereby, as well as the
ones who will receive the tracts.
We have also planned to develop what is de
signed to be the best equipped, most up-to-date,
scientific, commercial farm and orchard . in ex
istence. It will consist of six thousand acres, and
will be included in this opening. All who register
and receive trcts will get the benefit of the ex
periments and scientific methods in vogue thereon.
While we are arranging to prevent over-registration,
we will avoid many disappointments, such as
occurred in other land openings conducted by the
United States Government and railroads, by grant
ing those who registered in excess of the number
of tracts to be granted, an interest in this , com
mercial farm and orchard enteiprise, in the hope
that they may later locate in one of our town sites.
Examination of the land will cheerfully be per
mitted, and the opening will be held at Brown
town, Wayne County, Georgia, one of the stations
of the A. B. & A. Railroad, which is located on this
property, and will occur as soon after the closing
of registrations as arrangements can be made.
The presense of those registered will not ' be
neces.arv at Browntown on the opening day, unless
they wish to attend, for there is no favoritism
shown anyone. It will be conducted by a commit
tee selected for the purpose, and those registered
will be notified of what they have been granted, as
soon as possible.
With the ever-increasing population of this
country 'V.erp is no corresponding increase in the
area of land, and naturally as the population in
creases and seeks the land in pursuit of health,
happinest and independence, it will continue to
be harder to secure.
The prosperous and contented class in Europe
to-day aro the descendant? of those who secured
land there when it was plentiful, while the descend
ants of those who obtained no land are now the
peasants end slaves. You muRt realize that this
may be your last chance to secure land in this
country without a large outlay of capital, so it
should not be necessary to urge you to act at once
by forwarding us th application for registration
attached to this announcement.
