Attention, Farmers of Ben Hill!
Fitzgerald is not only your county seat: it is the commercial CENTER of your section. It should be your mart your mecca. What is for Fitzgerald's good is for your own. You can help to make it greater, and you SHOULD.
The business League is working to that end. Its slogan is "For Ben Hill and Fitzgerald" and it is doing things. The Leagues cannot do without you; neither can you do without it. The Headquarters on Main Street will be visited by all classes of home-seekers within the next few weeks and months You will miss a first-class opportunity of showing what you can produce, unless you place there for daily exhibition to your own people and these strangers some sample of your best. Let them come on.
