Savannah Morning News / Cordele News May 11, 1901
                         A CATTLE RANCH FOR DOOLY
                              11 MAY 1901
     One of the largest and most extensive cattle ranches in Georgia or perhaps
in the South, will soon be in operation three miles southeast of Cordele. Mr. C.
C. Greer stated to a News reporter yesterday that he had just begun work on a
wire fence which would, when completed, enclose about 1,100 acres of fine swamp
and grazing lands, upon which he would start one of the most extensive cattle
ranches in the South. Mr. Greer is now buying up all the cattle he can find and
will put them in his large pasture and fatten them for market. This pasture will
furnish all the grass and cane for the cattle in the spring and summer, and in
the winter Mr. Greer will have 200 acres of rye to pasture the on until spring
again. Mr. Greer is one of the largest and most successful farmers in Dooly
county, and we predict that he will make big success of hiw new industry.
