JEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE

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 
 
proposes the establishment- of. butter, 
@heese and dehydrating plants for the 
 
We proposed to establish adequate 
 
posed to assist in every way possible in 
getting farms equipped with freezing 
units where butter, eggs, meat, poultry, 
 
fluring the period of surpluses. Quick- 
freezing plants are very helpful to any 
eommunity where there is sufficient in- 
terest to erect such plants. Another 
thing to be done to make Georgia self- 
 
' It is proposed, through private cap- 
ital, to develop grain elevators at stra- 
tegie points to handle corn, wheat, ete., 
that is grown for milling purposes. A 
Great deal of owe grain suffera severe 
 
storage and quick-freezing plants on: 
) the State Farmers Markets. It is pro- 
 
vegetables and fruits may be preserved 
 
  
 
manufacture of these products in the 
main cities of the State. These plants 
will have to be established and operated 
by business men who are experienced 
in the manufacturing and sale of these 
products. The securing of interested 
parties and the financing of the plants 
 
COLD STORAGE 
 
sustaining is the establishment of pro- 
cessing and preserving plants in pro- 
ducing centers. For instance, most of 
our tomatoes are sold as green wrapped 
and there is always a large percentage 
of ill-shaped slightly defective or over- 
ripe tomatoes that could be either 
 
canned or converted into tomato juice, 
catsup, ete. There is a tremendous con- 
sumption of these products in the State 
of Georgia, but there is not a. single 
 
deterioration and damages through the 
ravages of weevils and other insects 
due to the lack of improper storage fa- 
cilities. In the past, many Georgia 
farmers have been unable. to find prop- 
 
  
 
of livestock and poultry; protecting farmers in the 
purchase of pure seed; strict inspection and con- 
trol of commercial fertilizer and insecticides; 
strict enforcement of Food and Feed Laws, and 
through the Market Bulletin furnish current in- 
formation on the supply, prices and location of 
plants, seeds, eggs, chickens, pigs and other prod- 
ucts which farmers need to buy or sell in order to 
become self-sustaining. 
 
PROCESSING AND PRESERVING PLANTS. 
 
should be the responsibilities of the 
bankers and other leading citizens who 
 
are interested in the development of 
their community. The average Georgia 
farm is the potential source of milk te 
justify these plants if the market is 
provided.

ly we should be able to establish and 
develop this business on a commercial 
seale, thereby utilizing our own surplus 
products. We ean establish processing 
plants for all types of fruits and vege- 
tables, thereby not only making Geor- 
gia more self-sustaining as to her food 
requirements, but creating small indus- 
tries which will give emplovment te 
many of our workers,

other grains due to lack of elevator fa- 
cilities. The residue of these grains 
could be profitably utilized in the man- 
ufacture of livestock feeds.

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-

ing purposes in accordance with the most -

probably been more instrumental than. 
 
any other man in Georgia in promoting 
an increased production of blueberries,

During the last two decades wonder- 
ful progress has been made in mech-

One of the first principles of a self- 
sustaining farm is to have soil that will 
produce profitable crops. The first 
step in retaining our soil or the build- 
ing of soil is te stop erosion. Some of 
our farmers do not realize that when 
heavy rains come, water runs off of 
eleared fields and much of our plant

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.

War and the yeara following eaused the

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 
acre in 1911, During the period 1912- 
J20, Georgia farmers were planting 
about 5,000,000 acres of cotton. The 
highest acreage was in 1914 when

an average acre yield 82 pounds, Geor-

produeed 613,000. bales. 
average yield in 1923, on 37,000,000 
acres, was 128.8 pounds. Our highest 
production of all times was in 1911 
when we produced 2,794,000 bales. The 
official records reveal that prior to 
1916 the percent of boll weevil damage 
in Georgia was zero. In 1916 the 
damage expressed in percentage of a 
full yield was 3 percent, in 1921 45 per- 
cent, in 1922 44 percent and in 1923 37 
Within recent vears this dam- 
age has been considerably reduced due 
to favorable weather conditions and 
proper insect control measures.
