about 1000 acres of farming lands
from 2 to 4 miles from Edgefield
C. H. On main road from Edge
field to Augusta by Ropers X roads
and Sweetwater church. There isa
20-rauIe farm of open lands on this
place that will rent for 40 bales if
all was rented out. 15 tenant!
houses; 10 barns, two of them will
accommodate 20 head of stock. One
commodious dwelling of ll rooms,
2 halls, 9 fireplaces, 100 feet of
piazzas on three sides; would cost
?5000 to build this sort of house
now. Telephone in house, can talk
to Columbia, Augusta and various
other places. New well, six feet in
diameter, walled with brick and ce
ment at back porch; 18 never fail
ing springs of pure free stone water.
Cedar creek runs through place for
over two miles. Have bottom lands
on creek worth $100 per acre, level
and easy to cultivate. Have often
made two fine crops a year on them
of oats and corn and peas. Last
year, made extra fine oats, then
planted in cern in June and made
extra fine corn, then sowed peas in
corn when it was layed by, and
made fine peas and hay; so I made
three crops last year. My uplands
respond to good preparation, cul
ture and fertilizers. If used with
three-year rotation, will improve
and grew remunerative crops. Have
lands that have been worked 100
years. When I bought them would
take three acres to make 1 bale of
cotton. Last year with 300 pounds
acid, meal and kainit mixed I made
1 bale of cotton per acre. The la
mented Col. Geo. I). Tillman and
Dr. Jas. A. DeVore used to own
the majority of these lands and both
of them told me these were best nat
ural cutton grit they ever saw in
tbeir travels, would corre nearer
making anything that prows out of
the ground than most places. I
raised last year with ll mules 125
bales of cotton, ??uu bushels corn,
oats, wheat, peas, potatoes, melons,
fruits, vegetables of most kinds,
vetch, clover, sugar cane, pop corn,
peanuts, turnips, pea vine and am
ber cane hay, strawberries, as par a
agus, line lot of hogs and cattle.
Have raised successfully sheep,
goats, mules ami horses. AV hen
mules were cheap, I sold a 2-year
old halter broke colt to a man in
another county fur * 1.45. A good
hoiSw-man that has been in every
mule raising .-?late in the union told
me he never saw a better 2-year-old
anywhere. Four years ago my
health failed. Feel that 1 want
rest, to do nothing for a year at
least, take things easy, travel some,
is my motive fur selling out. There
is nu rest for a man on a large plan
tation. Have tried to be a gentle
man farmer, wear ciean shirt, collar
and cravat, rid i a fancy saddle
horse. Have found the old maxim
true1 That he by the plow must
thrive must either hold or drive.
Could always run things better by
taking hold. Just show them ex
actly hovv I wanted things done.
Commenced to buy these lands
when I was 19 years old on credit
with interest. Just as I would al
most get out of one thing I would
jump in another, as I bought this in
5 tracts. Paid for all but one small
tract when cotton was selling from
4 1-4 to 8 cents at factory, that is
where sold of it then. Hailt every
house on lands except 2 small unes,
every panel of fence and managed
always to meet my contracts. Am
living in 1 mile of where I was born
and raised; never had a lawsuit in
my life; never sued anyone, or been
sued; always tried to let my word

never abused ray credit; don't buy
anything don't need if it is cheap,
as one thing calls for another. Have
plenty of fine 2nd growth timber on
place to keep it up. Last timber
had cut w s by a first-class saw
mill man from Greenwood county.
Told me that cut lumber for me
that would sell at Greenwood for
?25 per M.; was 18 inches wide and
best heart old field pine ever saw.
Is fine mill foundation and dam on
place side of public road where my
father had best grist, merchaut and
cotton gin ever saw in country. The
dara and foundation is there better
than ever. There are trees on dara
that will make 8 rails to cut. This
dam and foundation cost ?2000 to
blast out and build. Would be a
model dairy and stock farm.
Have lot of fencing on place
built of rails woven wire plank and
barbed wire. Have good planta
tion commissarvjgin house,shop and
tools on place. Would be a most
excellent place for a colony of small
farmers. Is very convenieut to pub
lic schools that have run for 20
years from 6 to 9 month each year.
Only 3 miles from the famous S. C.
C. I., Edgefield, S. C., run by that
renowned Christian gentleman Col.
F. N. K. Bailey and his able assist
ants too numerous to mention here.
Which is a cheap and high class
college that has sent out many
graduates in teachers, lawyers, doc
tors, bankers, farmers and ministers
of the gospel. Will sell cheap as a
whole] throw in my farming tools
wagons and implements which con
sists of binder, mower, rake, chop
per, colton seed planters, guano dis
tributors, middle busters, cultiva
tors, 2-horse pious, some fine mules
and something to feed them on.
This place is also near the famous
old Horn's Creek, oldest in the as
sociation. The last resting place
of my parents and devoted children
gone cn before. If some wanted it
that preferred other denominations
or town churches there is at the
grand and historic tc .vu of Edge
rield with its new up to the minnie
electric lights which is quite an hon
or and addition to the place. Looks
as if it is beginning to wake up
from its long Kip Van Winkie
sleep. In there last night to take
my beloved son-in-law Jno. W.
Kemp home with rae after his busi
ness closed. When the-lights were
put on I imagined I was in busy
Augusta or hustling Atlanta. Could
hardly realize was still in Edge
Held. The world and people too
lia ve got to move upward or down
ward. Cannot stand in one placo;
this is certainly a progressive nae.
.So city fathers wake up; strike
while iron is hut: one improvement
calls for more. Ohl Edgefield will
he just what you make it. There is
ju old Ed ge ii eld 3 miles from my
home the Methodist, Presbyterian,
Episcopal, 1st "and 2nd Baptist
and Holy Hollers, all composed of
as good true membership and atten
dants os the sun ever shone upon:
can take your choice; go every Sun
day as all are striving for the same
place. Would be in easy reach of
ymir choice of these; worship as
your faith and ideas dictate, as this
is the land of the free aud the home
of the brave.
Will sell if wanted for one-third

reasonable rate of interest. Have
