OUR SOUTHERN BUDGET Fr.oM ouit SrrciAL Correspondent. Southern Pines, N.U., Feb. 13. .1 always like to do good to mankind, and that is the reason I make my letter this time consist of a topic that is of deep importance to a large part of the newspaper readers of the world. I dldnU wrlie.tlid following words myself, but- want to' send them forth for the (good'they"will do'-somcbody. - We tako plcasuift In addressing the following remarks, to those who desire to own a home and lands. In the first place, wo believe 'every cltiidn desires' to improve his circumstances Iu life, to own lands. To gratify this longing, we offer good lands with everything to make a homestead capable of sustaining in comfort a man and family. These lands are not situated In the far North west, nor extreme South, but near the greatest markets of tho continent. In a climate famous for Us heallhfulness,and in a community noted for love of law, and given to hospitality. Investment In these lands Is an Insurance equal to that offered by any co-operative com pany. It is open to all; tho old and feeble as well as the you ng and rob us can Invest In them with a certain knowledge that whenever they have completed their monthly payments they will have a fee simple title to a home stead tbat will be worth as much again as when they begau to pay for it. Leaving out of view any other cause, the natural incrcaso of the population will add to the value of the farm annu ally. The increase of immigration to the South, and especially North Caro lina will enhances the value of these farms to a great extent. A homestead cannot fall like an Insurance coinpany,a savings bank, a building and loan as sociation, or any co-operative company. These lands aro beyond the destructive Influences which destroy stocks and se curities of such companies. It is a good investment because it will advanco In value from year to year, and because it canuot be seriously Impaired by strikes or even wars. It is always a means of supnort and a source, of revenue. Es pecially is tula litis the rase with a homestead that is improving from year to year. A small amount expended an nually on fruit trees and vines, to which theso lands are especially suited, will mike the purchase of these homesteads a very profitable investment. It Is usual for similar lands, when put in grapes to yield over one hundred dollars per acre clear profit. When 'well man aged the produce of tbo vineyard will pay for the lands five times over three yean after it is planted. To those who are usable to stand the rigors of a cold climate, whose strength will yield to the continuous cold of long winters these opportunities are especial ly agreeable. Many would no doubt coma to a Southern home, but tbey have not the. money tp dp -so,. They would bare to pureiiuA land, build a cottage, buy stock and agricultural -implements. This would consume all their means and leave tbera nothing to go upon un til tbey could acquaint themselves with the best methods of farming, and until they could get returns from their vines and fruit trees. Breaking up old as sociations and moving to a new homo always has dlUlculties, and immediate success seldom follows. Often a roeru mistake will break a man's fortune by involving film In dliilcullies from which he cau never withdraw himself. All this can be avoided and still th&eud wished for attained. A laborer, a me chanic, a farmer, a trader, a profession al man, otajady In any circumstance in life, can. nay at bis or her home and In the present occupation, and by econ omy save a small sum monthly which - . v ,,..,.i ,,....i. i . i. I ' tf aid !n tha-South. Those desWnf? can I - 1 havo their fUces Improved by paying oue muni Kcts. CTJACOM Off i in ram small sum monthly In addition to the monthly payments for lands. A cottage can be built at a vcrv moderate cost.and a fruit orchard or vineyard can be set out without leaving his or her home for a day. The purchaser can have lib lands cultivated In such crops ns he de sires, and have tho latter shipped direct ly to his home where he can dispose of them at good vrlccs. A crop of sweet potatoes grown on five acres of land ought to yield one thousand bushels. This Is a low estimate, as potatoes havo been knowu to yield eight hundred bushels to the acre. Making the esti mate at two hundred bushels per aero gives one thousand bushels for the Ave acres. From tho farm to tho interior of New York and adjoining States the freight will not exceed forty cents per bushel. Tho potatoes can bo shipped toyouTiv tho 20th of August or sooner If they arc planted early. Now you can make your'-calculatloh as to whit you could get' for the potatoes In vour mar ket, nnd the profits that you could make on them from the time the land was cleared' until your fruit trees and vines corns into paying condition. Peanuts will also do well; Irish potatoes and other vegetables will grow successfully, but wo think that the sweet potato crop will yield a larger Income than any oth er vegetable planted. When a pur chaser desires he can conio to take up his residence and become one of our people. If It Is his preference ho can visit his homestead and direct nil opera tions in. 'person, or ho can spend his winters on his farm in the South nnd his summers nt his homo In tho North, lie has settled then In bis mind as to when he shall go and what he shall do, and has none of those perplexities to contend with which usually confront a new settler. The homestead cannot vanish, nor will it decrease In value. On the contrary It will share in the general prospcrlly of tho country and will grow In value as the villages near It improve, and as the tide of settlers flows South and the lands nround it arc purchased. A country that is sought on account of Its healthfulness, with mild winters, and tho heats of summer tempered by cool nights, producing nil fruits, vegetables and tobacco, whero stock and poultry can go all tho year without shelter, watered by clear, run ning streams, and with thousands of acres covered with original Umber, tra versed by railways and within ono day's travel of New York'-city. settled by Protestant Christian people cannot go backward. The abovc;Is buta part of what might "be said in favor of tho colony lands. A rare chance is here offered for people of small means to get homes. A few weeks slnco a rallroad.col lision, on one of the roads leading out of New York, killed, amoug others, a passenger living in an interior town. His remains were sent home in good shape, and a few days after the.J'uncral the attorney of the road called upon the widows to effect a settlement. She placed her figures at $20,000. "Oh I that sura Is unreasonable," re plied tho attorney. "Your husband was nearly fifty years old." "Yes, sir." "And lame!" "Yes." "And his general health was poor?" "Quite poor." "And he probably would not havo lived over five years!"' "Probably not, sir." "Then it seems to mo that two or three thousand dollars would be a fair compensation." "Two or tbroo thousand," she echoed. "Why, sir, I courted that man for ten years, run after him for ten more, and then had to chase him down with a shot gun to get him before a preacher! Do you suppose that I'm go ing to settle .for the bare cost of shoe leather and ammunition?" "When I married you," said Mrs Tcpperton to her husband, "I thought that you were a sensible man. but I have learned that you aro a fool." "Let me see," tho husband mused "we havo been married five years, havo we not?" "Yes; I am torn' lo say tbat we have." "And you married me under the im. presslon that I was a very sensible ft-1 low?" "Yes." "And you bave just discovered that I am a fool?" "Yes, I have." "Well, you were a long time in mal tng this discovery, which proves that you are a bigger fool tban lam. AnJ other thing in my favor is that I knew y o j were a fool or you wouldn't havo con sented to marry me." -THE BEST TONIC.
