DEPART oe TOM LINGER AGRICULTURE ae ER EDITORIALBy Tom Linder A Sucteals strength in war is no greater than its food supply. It is just as imperative to build up reserves of food and all cultural crops as it is to build up reserves of soldiers, guns ammunition. Bef The American farmer will provide the food for America the hungry nations of Europe if given an opportunity to do The American farmer cannot produce this food at a loss use he has already lost all that he had. In 1935 the legislature passed an act authorizing the Com- oner of Agriculture of Georgia to build farmers markets. lere was no special appropriation made for this purpose. In February 1936, as Commissioner of Agriculture, I opened e first State Farmers Market in Atlanta. Together with the tlanta market we cpened a market in Macon and several small- cities, Those markets plowed of great benefit both to the farmers > d to the city dwellers, and through them millions of dollars of gtables, fruits, truck crops, etc., went from the farms to the les of those who live in the cities. On May 10, 1941, we opened in Atlanta, Georgia, the largest d most modern farmers market in the United States. Since May 10 we have handled through the markets in At- nta, Macon, and other smaller markets, more than a million ars of farm products each month. During the rush season, hundreds of truck \oads of Georgia: tables have gone to the cities of the North and East. On the Atlanta market there come hundreds of trucks be- ging to retail merchants. These retail merchants are located FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES ices prevailing at following State Farmers Markets: December 5, 1941 Atlanta eans (Snap), per be Hertel $ 1.75 ollards, per doz 00 - 30 - Mustard Greens, per bu. hers. mostly = urnips, Her dOZ. = DUNCheS ee Se 40 - urnip Salad, per: bu. prs. 2s ee 40 = ARKET REPORT OF GEORGIA PRODUCTS | Prevailing Wholesale Prices (FOB Points Mentioned) ggs quoted below are for GEORGIA, GRADE A, WHITE EGGS.

These retail merchants buy thousands oe truck jones of th cheaper grades of vegetables and fruit which are not suitable pack and ship through the regular channels of trade. These cheaper grades are, in many instances, Blas as goo for food as the high priced vegetables. _ They furnish a wonderful source of food for those. aha J low incomes and who are not able to buy high priced goods the up-to-date stores. A Farmers Market in Washington; D. C. Last week I was in Washington. Washington is within easy hauling distance of many of th largest cities in the United States. The thought occurred to me that if we had a large a market in or near Washington, operated on the same basis th, the Atlanta market is operated, we would open the door to a unlimited demand for vegetables and fruits of all kinds fr Georgia farms. g Tf we had a big market in Washington where the retail merchants of Washington, Baltimore, Harrisburg, Pittsbur; Philadelphia, New York, and hundreds of great cities in that area could come with their trucks, we would have an outlet that would insure a market for all that we could grow and, at iis (Continued on Page Two) Livestock Sales, Georgia Auction Markets | Reports received at this office show following average prices paid Z for No. 1 hogs at the Live Stock Auction Markets named: s December 5, 1941 = Per an = November 27-Augusta ........ : November 27Valdosta November 28Cordele December 1Sylvester December 2-Macon December 3Albany _.. : = December 2Arlington ae 7 bo TOP FED CATTLE November 27--Aususta: =: = = Lae eee eS =$ 7.25" November 27Valdosta - 7.00- 7.50 November 28Cordele 8.00- 8.50 December 1Syivesier _- s 9.00- 9.45 December 2Macon -. : 5.00- 7.00 December 2Albany : 10. 00- 10.50 December 2Arlington eee ees - $.75 December 5, 1941.

Markets For the Farmers (Continued from Page One) same time, furnish the source of food at reasonable cost to the poor people of those great cities | _ If we had a market in Washington through which all our peaches, watermelons, and other perishable rops could be routed, it would be the greatest in- surance of a good market of anything that I know. A carload or truckload of peaches could be sent to the Washington market and from there could be re- routed to the best spots on the market chart.. From Washington they could be delivered to ost of the market centers between sundown and sun- up, and to the furtherest points within twenty-four hours. - We have some wide- awake and patriotic whole- ale merchants on the Atlanta marketmen who are iterested in finding profitable markets for Georgia roducts. --With a mammoth market in Washington, some of. these merchants, who are already familiar with the Georgia situation, will open branches on the Washington market and handle the farmers merchan- ise direct to the retail stores of several states. Our peach growers could easily have representa- tives on such a market to divert their shipments to the best spots under prevailing weather and market con- itions.. It will, of course, cost money to build such a market, but it would) be, in my opinion, the best money eorgia could spend. We have just broken the ground in develoing rerleets: for farm products and there is no limit to at can be done if we will all pull together and try. , Congress Must Help the Farmer AG If the farmers are to feed the Nation and our med forces, if we are to build up a reserve and be epared to feed the starving people of Europe, the merican farmer must have a break. 1e. same amount of money that they received in 1910 thirty yearsago. In the meantime, the cost of what E farmer buys had increased nearly one hundred lant in Europe in a country that has been captured y the Germans. The paper told how these industrial workers re being oppressed and were compelled to work $7.50 a week. Seven dollars and fifty. cents a ek i is thirty dollars a month. I could not help thinking that while these en- ved and oppressed people in Europe were working or thirty dollars a month that, according to the Gov- rnments figures for 1940, the people on the Ameri- an farms received $6.32 a month. _ Six dollars and thirty-two cents a month for peo- ple on the American farms against thirty dollars a month for people in the oppressed countries of a And yet, Morgenthau, Barich, Henderson and mpany, want to fix a price on the products of the erican farms and prevent the condition of those \merican farms becoming better. 7 7 note that Senator George says we may as wellle one hundred and fifty billion dollars. Every loyal American is in favor of national de- ense at any cost, and the American farmer is willing o do more than his part. _ Every sane man knows that you cannot spend ne hundred and fifty Dillion dollars without prices oing sky high. o understand the price of Seeslizer for 1942 will 4 The farmers of the United States in 1940 received |- 2 Yesterday I saw a picture of a great industrial |, int on expenditures for national defense Hee be around twenty-five per cent higher than it was in 1941. Other things will be in proportion or higher. The Congress has created a controlled economy, and this controlled economy has got the American farmer hog-tied. It is up to Congress to see that the incomes of the American farmer is in line with the national in- come, and not to turn the farmer over to any price administrator, whether it be one man or a board. Congress cannot give its attention to any matter|- that is more necessary for national defense than to see that the production on American farms is made profitable. Congress should either see to it that the Ameri- can farmer receives a profitable price for what he produces, or they should take the bonds off him and turn him loose. According to newspaper items, there have been more profits made on national defense orders than the total amount of money received by the thirty million people who live on the farms.

Franklin, Col- quitt County Vocational Teacher, from which I quote a few of the most significant paragraphs: In promoting the program the Vocational Teachers and the County Agent have been very careful to recommend only sound practices that have been thoroughly tried and proven at our ex- periment stations. The farmers of the county have responded splendidly. Most of them have forgotten the idea of ten acres and are planting and fertilizing their entire corn acreage careful- ly and receiving profitable returns. While the entrants in the contest represent only a small portion of the actual acreage in the county it is estimated, based on sound informa- tion, that more than one-half the acreage in the county has been directly affected and that the increased yield in corn alone, directly attributed to the contest has reached 650,000 bushels an- nually. This corn, when fed through good live- stock, should increase the annual income of farmers of the county more than half a million dollars. We recognize it costs less to mature and finish for market, high grade livestock compared with common grades, so we are constantly sug- gesting the use of Pure the quality of our herds. Bred sires, to grade up The goal in Colquitt County is to increase corn production to an average of 40 bushels to the acre, to reduce the county acreage from 73,- 000 to 50,000 acres and increase by 25,000 acres the oats, lespedeza, and permanent pasture in the county. With this done we will be able to market at least two million dollars worth of live- stock annually, to improve our soil, and to have a really diversified agriculture that will supply an adequate farm income to the farm families in the county. What Colquitt County is doing can be done throughout the entire South. Cheap feed, along with good livestock and with good management will materially add to the income of any farmer. For the South this should mean many millions- added annually to our farm income. eventually result in the taking of our rightful It will place as the nations greatest livestock producing section. | H=8, Franklin, Colquitt County Vocational \ SUMMARY Teacher, OF THREE YEARS RESULTS 1939, 1940, 1941 __ Colquitt County Ten Acre, Five Year Corn.
