A very subseoittiel farmer and bushes man from south-
Georgia was in my office yesterday. This man runs a large

m and operates a community gin and a hotel.
One year ago this man was paying $55.00 to $60.00 per ton
or cotton seed and was buying cooking oil for his hotel for
aL 15 per gallon in 5 gallon lots. Today he is paying $42.00 to

4.00 per ton for cotton seed and i is buying cooking oil for $1.60.

gallon in5 gallon lots.

Cotton seed has gone down 20 to 25 per cent in 12 ree

d cooking oil has gone up 40 per cent. Certainly the high

; of cooking oil cannot be charged to the farmers who pro-.

ce cotton seed when cotton seed has gone down almost a
rth and cooking oil has gone up almost half.

Several weeks before the War Production Board granted
hority to the Commodity Credit Corporation to control agri-
tural crops producing oil, I wrote an article in the Market

tin warning that an increase in spread from the oil mill

~When I came into the office of Commissioner of ageoulas
last year the canned milk shippers were receiving on an average
about 16 cents per gallon for milk. We finally succeeded i
getting this price raised to 30, 32 and 34 cents in different mil
sheds.

Since then, the cost of producing milk has continned
rise. Around 4,000 milk cows have been slaughtered for be
and a good many producers have gone out of business.

Itisa question of time only now before milk will be rat
ed unless we can increase production. We cannot increase p1
duction unless the producers can get at least cost for producir

I have found out in the last few days that some plant
Georgia are now paying from 38 to 45 cents per gallon form
The milk that the plants are paying 38 to 45 cents per ga
for is being sold from 13 to 16 cents a quart. If some plants
pay 38 to 45 cents per gallon and sell it for 13 to 16 cents pe
quart, I see no reason why all the plants could not pay at leas
38 to 40 cents per gallon for this milk.

I am asking Mr. Charlie Duncan and the Milk Contr
Board to meet at once and fix the price to the producers at
to. 40 cents a gallon, if the plants do not voluntarily raise a
prices to these figures. Pes

Since some of the plants have already voluntarily ra
their prices, it seems to me that all the plants should follow s

Honorable Ralph McGill, editor of the Atlanta Constituti
had an article in his column on Tuesday, September 22, which
is so pertinent to the question that I am reproducing it on the
last page of this issue. :

__ I note that Triple A has filed an injunction in
Federal Court at Gainesville, Florida, against Com-
missioner of Agriculture Nathan Mayo, to prevent
him enforcing Florida fertilizer laws.

_ The Triple A is making every effort to' avoid

| state laws that are set up for the protection of
the farmers, both on seed and on fertilizer. The Triple
A is following a policy which is very detrimental to
the farmers, the government, and to the war effort.

fe The farmers of Fulton County, Georgia, are buy-
1g 20 per cent superphosphate from regular compa-
nies delivered at their farms anywhere in the county

for $17.50 per ton.

_ Those farmers in Fulton County who are buying
through the Triple A are being charged $18.10 per
on and then have to haul this superphosphate from

is

airburn or from Alpharetta. This hauling costs
em at least $1.00 per ton on an average, making
eir superphosphate cost them $19.10 when they
uy from the Triple A, whereas those who buy direct

the companies are getting it for $17.50.
in addition to the superphosphate from Triple A
sting the farmer $19.10, the government is having
0 absorb 50 cents a ton to keep the Triple A from
ing money on it. : a -

The Triple A is wasting a lot of money in freight. ;

Superphosphate trying to avoid the payment of
te inspection fees because they do not want the
mers to have- the benefit of the State Chemist
yzing the goods that they sell. In order to do this
are hauling this superphosphate from one state
other which, of course, means that they are pay-
in extra freight much more than the 30 cents
ton the inspection would cost. :

-plant 1 A. $1.00, postpaid.

few red and white nest onions,

pPelpher rose, Penvrood, RR. 2.

have any protection on the seed that they sell to the
farmers.

The commissioners of agriculture of the southern

states have agreed to work together to enforce these
laws and I believe we will succeed.
* * * :

Many thousands of acres of food crops are go-
ing to waste in Georgia because they cannot be har-
vested. I am informed that throughout Southwest
Georgia thousands of acres of peanuts, which were
planted in response to the governments request, will
rot in the field because the price set on peanuts will
not permit the farmers to pay the wages they would
have to pay to get help to gather these peanuts.

I am informed that the price of oil in cotton
seed, peanuts and soy beans, was fixed by a man
just out of the office of Proctor and Gamble. Proctor
and Gamble paid this man, I am informed, $27,000.00
per year. I am also informed that Mr. Leon Hender-
son paid him $1.00 per year. : <=

After the price was set on oil, the price of oil
products such as cooking oil, was permitted to con-
tinue to go up. ie
