This elementary that successful agriculture aenends in the
Jong run on profitable marketing.

_ We recognize the tremendous and vital necessity of edu-
ational and instructional work in soil building, in soil conserva-
jon, in the selection of seed, in crop rotation, and all the other
practices calculated to improve production. This must never

We year.

_ Marketing isa broad cae In its broadest sense, marketing
yegins with the selection of the seed and soil, and ends with
retail sales to the ultimate consumer.

Marketing involves correct practices in grading and pack-
ing. It involves transportation and it involves merchandising.

Today Georgia, with the balance of the nation, and, in.
act, the civilized world, is facing the most tragic hour since |
, beginning of recorded history.

The very fate of civilization itself may hang in the iealeue.

_ There is nothing more vital to the defense of the nation
oo ta" winning the World War than the production of ample
Tops of food, fibers and other products of the soil.

= The production of these crops must ultimately depend
1pon the successful marketing of each crop so as to make pos-
sible the production of the next crop.

Georgia, along with other states, is now sie by our Gov-
rnment to increase its production of certain crops in are to
nsure victory for us and our. allies.

word. Georgia needs to greatly expand its production and
arketing facilities of diversified crops and this was true prior
the beginning of the war. We are now in a position where
xeorgia can expand its production and marketing of farm
products to meet the requirements of the Federal Government
and, at the same time, we can do so in a way that will not
ave us over-expanded ie eae times when peace anal)

a Georgia is is fortunately siudted geographically to gain the
greatest. advantage by scientific: expansion of her: markets for
e following reasons. .

~The maps on the foreleaf of this article dem anetrate that

a line is drawn from Valdosta, Georgia, to Chicago, from
Chicago to New York, and from New York back to Valdosta
t will form a triangle that is et 900 a on each

The eenter of this friancle would be pe ee 250
niles from Atlanta. From this center if we draw a circle
ith a radius of 400 miles, we will have a consuming population
yf more than 50 million people. The center of this 50 million
opulation would only be 250 miles from Atlanta, and the

entire 50 million population would only be 450 miles from the
center of this circle. =~

_ While the center of this 50 million consuming population is
nly 250 miles from Atlanta, it is 1800 miles from Texas, and
500 miles from California.

In my opinion with such a natural advantage as this, and
with the possibilities that nature has given us in Georgia soil and
imate, if we cannot fight our way to the top with Georgia
products, then Georgia business men and Georgia leaders must
acknowledge incompetence and inability to deal with the
orld in which we live.

zo) hope that each and every one of you whe have not already
one so will visit the new State Farmers Market at Murphy
Avenue and Sylvan Road before you leave Atlanta. I will be
ery glad to take you and show you this market at your con-
venience if you will let me know when it will suit you.

I would like to call to your attention that these farmers
markets have made tremendous headway under what appeared
0 be unsurmountable difficulties.

The subject of crops to be marketed is too broad to be dealt
ith in a limited paper, however, I would like to call your
tention to one or two ideas that I think deserve special notice.

: We are now producing in Georgia several million fryers



- Georgia is exceptionally fortunate in one sense of the

























and broilers. 'nis could easily be increased to ten or twe
million. The trouble is that profit can only be shown on choi
merchandise and run of the mine poultry, like aa of
mine anything else, does not bring profitable prices.

If we could establish a quick freezing plant at a cl
point, with a State Veterinarian to inspect every bird befe
it is killed, and have each bird frozen in individual pac
with a State stamp showing it to be a Georgia prime an
inspected, I believe we could get fancy prices for these broi
and fryers that are of prime grade, whereas they are now be
sold at the same price of run of the mine poultry.

The same principle can be applied to other products

: The Department-of Agriculture, as you know, has. v
limited funds, but I am trying to arrange to have a Fede
State inspection on aS many crops this year as possible so a
get Government certificates at point of ieee. :
producers.

This is most important because it is insurance sean 1]
farm products falling into the hands of sharpers at the o
end of the line who will make unjust claims against the g
and conditions of these products where there is no Covers
certificate for the protection of the producer.
