HENRY L. CHASE

     Mr. Henry L. Chase, of Duluth, a recent visitor to Waycross, represents capitalists of St. Paul, Minnesota, who are negotiating for the purchase of 50,000 acres of land in Ware County, near Waycross, which will be cut up into small tracts and sold to thrifty farmers of the northern states, who will bring their families here for climatic and other reasons, and execute diversified farming, grow truck and raise poultry for the local and northerwestern markets.

     As soon as the deal is made Mr. Chase will bring his large family here to locate permanently.  He says many of his neighbors will accompany them to make their permanent homes in Ware County.

     Mr. Chase is a large lumber merchant at Duluth, Minnesota, and also owns the wholesale paint, oils, varnish, white lead and turpentine house known as the Red Star Supply Company.
