GEORGIA STATE
GEORGIA A State of Advantageous Oppor- • • tunities Georgia, the largest state east of the Mississippi River, and one of the original thirteen states of the Union, is teeming with opportunities for the farmer and artisan for those who would work, or play or simply rest. Marvelously rich in climates, soils, minerals, forests, fruits and flowers, with excellent schools, thriv- V . ing cities and towns, ports beyond compare, and industrial acf % tivities growing and extending with amazing rapidity, there is so -i ©. much of it that its nearly three million busy people are unequal 5 in numbers to the task of development. _^ © There is enough and to spare, and in the spirit of the founders «C; of the Colony in 1733, who adopted as their motto non sibi ^,~ sed aliis (not for themselves, but for others), Georgia smiles its welcome and extends its invitation to the people of other states and countries, where the rigors of climate and other con ditions are less favorable to successful husbandry, to come and share in its abundant resources. There is no room in Georgia for the lazy and shiftless, but for ambitious, self-respecting peoples, who, independent of sex, recog nize the dignity of honest labor, who fear God, revere the sanc tity of the home, and are amenable to law and order, there is a , ( hearty welcome, a fair field, a kindly soil and a golden harvest ^, to be gathered. Nature has done her part. The lap of Georgia ; has been lavishly heaped with advantageous opportunities. Men / and women with enterprise and moderate means are needed to V develop what Nature has so bountifully provided. Sunny, Smiling Georgia! Sir Richard Montgomery, to whom the Lord Proprietors of the Carolinas had granted part of it in 1717, wherewith to establish his proposed Margravate of Azilla, described it as a veritable paradise, "the most delightful country," where, he said, "the flowers bloomed earlier, the birds sang sweeter, the water was colder and purer, the air was always balmy, and winter was not known." Sir Richard never gained his paradise, but others did, and as they journeyed farther from the coast and upward into the West and North, new delights were ex perienced, soils and zones of climate and vegetation were found in numberless variety, and each could choose a home-site to // a wall was built around Georgia it could be made entirely self- supporting. Any crop possible to raise be tween the Frigid and Tropical Zones can be matured in Georgia, suf ficient to support ten times tHe State©s present population. §>
