ISELF-SUSTAINING AGRICULTURE



The goal of all Agricultural Agencies of Geor-
gia should be to make the State self-sustaining
as far as its food and feed requirements are con-
gerned. The Department of Agriculture, through
its various activities, is making an enviable con-
| tribution toward the achievement of that goal.

Our plan contemplates a continual enlarge-
ment and expansion of disease and insect control

It is proposed to encourage the estab-
lishment of dairy manufacturing plants
and milk routes throughout the State,
" to provide a ready cash market for the

farmers surplus milk. This plan also

sustaining is the establishment of pro-
cessing and preserving plants in pro-

our tomatoes are sold as green wrapped

of ill-shaped slightly defective or over-

canned or converted into tomato juice,

farmers have been unable. to find prop-

purchase of pure seed; strict inspection and con-
trol of commercial fertilizer and insecticides;
strict enforcement of Food and Feed Laws, and

ucts which farmers need to buy or sell in order to
become self-sustaining.

requirements, but creating small indus-

of planting seed. This is largely due to
the fact that seed peanuts should be

cured and stacked differently from com-. 4

mercial peanuts. Peanuts for milling
purposes are in great demand when
they retain a bright color. In stacking
so as to retain the bright color they
sometimes pass through a heat that
destroys the germination. The prime
faetor of good agriculture is full pro-
duction and full production cannot be ob-
tained without good seed. Our plan in-

EXCESS

This nation is top-heavy with. cities.

The farm: population has become too

small for an enduring nation. Georgia

fortunately still has.a preponderance of

& its people living on the farm. The

number of people living on our farms

should be greatly increased.
History has unerringly. demonstrated

that no nation long survives when its
_ Gity population becomes greatly in ex-
cess of its rural population. An increase
in our farm population can be brought

about through increased and_ better

markets for many farm crops which
are not now paying money crops.

With a rapid inerease in population

in the United States, and foreign de-

mand for our products there appears .

to be no immediate, danger of agricul-

ture over-producing.

Of course, so long as we have a Na-

tional Policy of bringing in millions
and millions of tons of butter, eggs,
meats, wheat, corn, sugar and fresh
_ vegetables, we will always have. import-
ed surpluses to beat down the price of
_ the American farm products. We can-
not produce a surplus, but we ean im-
port surpluses.

Industry and business will be in the

same condition as agriculture when it

omes to the question of meeting world

-Yarket prices.

_ A policy which reduces the American
farmer to a level of World prices will

ultimately reduce the industrial work-

er and the business employee to a level
of world prices. It is impossible to

have a high American standard of liv-
ing for agriculture or industry and at

the same time lower our prices to meet
the prices in world markets.

This is a national question and must
be handled by our Congressmen and

Senators in Washington, Nevertheless,
di is one of the most vital questions af-
fecting the people of Georgia and the

people of the South.
IN GENERAL

A great deal has been said and done

in Georgia te promote education in all

-its branches.

This is as it should be, an enlighten-
ed citizenry is the firm foundation of an
enduring republic.

_ Great strides have been made in our
educational system and _ succeeding
state administrations and State Legis-
Jatures have ungrudgingly supported
the development of our education in-
stitutions.

Great progress ha; been made in re-



CITY POP

cent years in bringing better educa-
tional advantages to our rural youth.

This has properly been-done, net only
to build a better citizenry, but also to
build a better agriculture and a better
State economically.

Unfortunately, we must face the fact
that the better equipped our young
people become in rural districts educa-
tionally, the more they are inclined to
leave the farm and go either to our
cities or to leave the South entirely and
go to other sections where their talent
and education enable them to demand
more money for their services.

So long as our young people leave
the localities where they are reared we
cannot make any real progress in the
building of our State.

So long as this continues, the rearing
and education of these young people is
a continual drain on our resources in-
stead of constituting an addition to ou

assets. es

Many people have advocated Federal

appropriation to supplement our funds _

for educational purposes.

Without in any way discussing the
desirability of Federal appropriations,
I wish to call attention to the inescap-
able fact that the very need of Federal
funds for education is proof that our
citizens after they are educated, are not
necessarily increasing our economic re-
sources in those communities where
they received their education.

Whether we resort to Federal ap-
propriations or whether we do not, the
fact remains that until such time as a
young man or a young woman can
leave high school or college and go back
to the farm and there find a source of
livelihood, approximating, at least, as
well as they ean find in other sections,
we cannot say that our agriculture is a
success,

This is the reason that the Commis-
sioner of Agriculture is continually, in-
sistently and urgently. demanding a
price for agricultural products that will
give the farmer true parity for farm
products,

Nothing less than true parity will
make it possible to build a sound, prof-
itable and economic agriculture and
business structure in our rural areas.
_If we are to have better educated farm
people and higher economic living
standards on American farnis than
those of other countries, then we must
have more money for the same crops
than farmers receive in these other
lands.



LATION

The idea that a well-educated, inteb.
ligent and = self-respecting American
citizen can produce onions as cheaply
as a peon who works for 40 cents a day;
is absurd.

The idea that this American can pre-
duce cotton as cheaply as the nativeg
of some other cotton producing coun
tries is equally absurd. -

The idea that a Georgia farmer can
develop an expensive pasture, plant
corn and potatoes, which must be cult
vated, and then grow beef as cheaply,
as beef can be produced on the natura
luscious plains of Argentina, is une
thinkable.

It is just as unreasonable to expect @
Georgia farmer to compete in prie@
with the nations of the world as
would be to expect industry to pay
American wages and then eompet@

with the penniless hordes of China and

Russia.

This is the reason that the Commis-
sioner of Agriculture continually
persistently opposes trade treaties an
special trade agreements which permit
the inflow of cheap agricultural prod
ucts from other continents and from
the islands of the sea.

COOPERATION

For the able and efficient assistanee
rendered by State Auditor B. R
Thrasher we are deeply grateful. Ma
Thrasher has, at all times, shown aw
understanding interest in the activities
of the Department,

I wish to call attention to the espe-
cial, cordial and cooperative relations
between the Department of Agricul
ture and other departments with whose
work and our activities are related.

We wish especially to express out
appreciation to the State College of Age
riculture, Mr. Walter Brown Director,
and the officials of the Experiment
Stations. Our association and service
work with all of them and their as-
sociates has been most harmonious,
pleasant and profitable to us.

We also wish to express appreciation
to Mr. M. D. Mobley and Mr, T. G. Wal
ters in the Department of Hdueation,
together with the vocational agricule
ture teachers, :

The Department of Entomology and
the Department of Natural Resources
have been most helpful and have at all
times promptly given every assistancd
possible.

COTTON

We now come to the bedrock of Geor-
gia agriculture. This could likewise
be said of the entire south, as cotton

has been our main money crop for more
than 100 years. It was the export of
eotton that gave this country a favor-
able trade balance for generations, It
was largely the export of cotton that
made possible the building of railroads,
industrial plants and skyscrapers,
which has marked the growth of this
great nation,

By nature, because of elimate and
soil that is particularly adapted to the
growth of cotton, a large part of the
south has been the cotton producing
section just as the central west has
been the corn and small grain. produc-
ing area.

Though the production of eotton has
somewhat shifted to the more fertile
areas of the south, due to high cost of
labor and other factors that enter into
the production and-harvesting of the
erop, its production will continue to be
one of our main money crops for years
to come.

During this shifting period, and since
the introduction of the boll weevil, we
have heard a great deal of propaganda
that Georgia soils have been impov-
erished by the growing of cotton. This
is not true, which will be substantiated
later by actual production figures.
Georgia is blessed by nature with a di-
versified soil and elimate. Our land by
eomparison with some other sections of
the country was poor by nature. It was
formed by voleanice action which raised
* the mountains in our northern sections
and the lower strata of the earth roll-
ing down the slopes towards the sea.
The heavy material came to rest first
and the lighter materials were carried
farther along by the natural results of
tuese great voleanic actions. This is
proven by many minerals found in the
soils in the valleys of North Georgia
which are not found in either the Pied-
mont or Coastal Plams. In the Pied-
mont sections the soils are largely com-
posed of clay while in the Coastal Plain
area the soil is largely sand and silt
with a generous inter-sprinkling of peb-
bles. Down through the centuries
Mother Nature built a soil on the de-
posits of these voleanie upheavals. The
result Was that Georgia soils were shal-
low when the white man ame to Amer-
ica. These virgin soils, therefore, need-
ed conservation and soll building meth-
ods even at the time of the landing of
Oglethorpe at the Yamaeraw Bluff.

When slavery was introduced into
Georgia it was accepted for the reason
that it provided cheap labor to do the
back breaking toil of elearing the forest
and farming the land.

Since these soils were shallow and
light it was obvious they could not con-
tinue to produce profitable crops if sub-
jected to uncontrolled erosion over the
years. If the early Georgia farmers
had practiced crop rotation and_ soit
erosion practices much of our valuable
soil fertility could have been preserved.

MARKET BULLETIN

depletion and impoverishment of much
of our Georgia farm land. The general
practice was to clear the more fertile

new land rather than to conserve the .

land in cultivation. Therefore, the need

for these modern soil conservation prac-

tices was not acute in those days.

The need for proper crop. rotation,
cover crops and sound farming prac-
tices did not grow out of the production

of cotton. They were necessary regard-

less of whether we grew cotton or did
not grow cotton. In this connection, I

would like to point out that cotton can

still be produced profitably in Georgia
providing our farmers take advantage
of all the modern methods-of crop pro-
duction which ineludes proper rotation,
soil conservation, good seed, proper
fertilization. and cultivation.

Naturally it is assumed that we can-
not produce cotton as cheaply as some
of the other producing countries and
maintain our present standard of living.
Neither can we produce, corn, beef,
dairy products, potatoes and other farm
commodities as the same line of reason-
ing applies im each case.

Our industries cannot manufacture
cotton goods, rayon, steel, iron and oth-
er industrial products as cheaply as
they are produced in China, Russia,
Mexico and even South America, due to
the higher construction cost of these
industrial plants, higher operating cost
and other factors. The same reasoning
applies to all American products, agri-
If the
automobile
manufacturer, the shoe manufacturer,
the steel manufacturer, ete., then by the
same token should not the cotton, corn,
wheat and other farmers be protected
against foreign competition.

Granting that our forefathers went
to the extreme and planted large acre-
age of cotton without any thought of
soil preservation, is no reason why we
cannot continue to produce cotton
profitably.

The records reveal that since 1908 the
lowest average acreage yield in Georgia
in 1920 was 138 pounds of lint cotton;
1921, 90 pounds; 1922, 100 pounds and
1923, 82 pounds. The highest yield
from 1908 to 1922 was 240 pounds per

official records reveal that prior to
