LUME 37

Editorial By TOM LINDER



American agriculture naturally had
beginning in the original thirteen
colonies. These became the original
thirteen states. :
The peuple of the colonies had no
food,except what they grew. They were
fo this reason very much interested in
inding out how to produce the best food
ops and more of them.

_ Also, the colonists were interested in
oducing crops they could send back
England in exchange for industrial
ds such as clothing, utensils, etc. For
is reason they began to grow cotton

ad tobacco.

AGRICULTURAL SOCIETIES
Long before anyone thought of agri-
cultural colleges and experiment stations,
more progressive citizens formed agricul-
tural societies. They held regular meet-
gs and exchanged ideas as well as gave
h other the benefit of experiments
onducted on their individual farms.
It is amazing to read some of the
esults obtained by early farmers with
home grown fertilizers and with their
own contrivances for planting and culti-
_vating their crops.

- As the country grew and the first
ties began to develop, it became more
nd more importunt to increase the yield
from the land. This need brought about

a

the creation of state departments of agri-

the benefit of all the people.

_ PRODUCERS. AND CONSUMERS
_ The Geergia State Department of Agri-
ulture was created not only to serve the
best interest of farmers, but equally to
erve the best interest of the people who
: had to depend upon buying their food. It
was also essential to encourage farmers to
groduce raw materials, especially cotton,
ut of which clothing and other essential
items could be made.
Bee 1874
- In 1874 the Georgia Legislature pass-
sd an act creating a Department of Agri-
ulture for the State of Georgia. The
gislature set up two broad duties for
the Department of Agriculture, each of
these duties being broken down into
many branches.
_ The Department of Agriculture is
charged with fostering and encouraging
irmers in the production of crops and

duty of seeing that perishable food prod-
ucts reach the consuming public in whole-
some condition.

The broad purpose of the Legislature
in creating the Department of Agricul-
ture was to insure adequate supplies of
home grown food and fiber. and thus to
ereate a prosperous agricultural popula-
tion, and at the same time. insure the
town and city people of adequate supplies
at as reasonable cost as is consistent with
existing economic conditions.

EARLY LEGISLATION

During the first decades of the
existence of the Georgia Department of
Agriculture, the Legislature passed a
number of acts giving broad duties to
the Commissioner of Agriculture. Much
of this legislation is in general terms and
serves more to outline the needs of the
State in agriculture and the purposes of
the Legislature in creating the Depart-
ment, than to give definite authority fo
perform specific duties.

LATER LEGISLATION

As the years went by and Georgia
developed greater agriculture and great-
er cities, the Legislature deemed it
necessary to enact more. specific laws
to make possible the carrying out of the

over-all purposes previously incorporated

in legislative acts.

In order to assure more profitable
production, legislation has been enactd
providing for registration and inspection
of all commercial fertilizers because the
production of crops in Georgia has been
closely associated with the use of addi-
tional plant foods which must come from
the fertilizer manufacturers and dealers.

Next to fertilizer and other plant food,
the planting of sound seed of desirable
varieties is necessary. For this reason
the Legislature enacted our seed laws
for the inspection of planting seed of
all kinds and for the elimination of
foreign aoxious weed and~grass_ seed.

Still later it became desirable and
necessary to enact laws for the registration
and inspection of insecticides and fungi-
cides, because the coming of insect pests
and fungus brought additional- hazards
to the farmers and thereby endangered
the source of supply of food for the city
dwellers.

Since the barter, exchange and sale of
commodities of all kinds was carried on
under a system of weights and measures,
it was essential for the state to see that



NUMBER 14

weights and measures were true and that
honest weights and measures were used
in carrying on business. For this reason
the Legislature enacted our weights and
measures bill, putting this duty in the
Department of Agriculture. :
LIVESTOCK

Since early days in Georgia the
records reveal that the raising of live-
stock has been an essential part ef
agriculture The control and eradication

of livestock disease is of utmost impor-

tance, both to the farmers who produce
livestock and to the city dwellers who
need wholesome disease-free milk and
other dairy products. Accordingly the
Legislature has passed a number of bills

_for the control and eradication of -livee

stock diseases and for the testing of dairy
and other herds for contagious and in-
fectious diseases, and for the inspection
of dairies and dairy products and dairy
distributing plants, All of these are the
responsibidity of the Department of
Agriculture. As our cities and industries
increased and as more and more of our
food was handled through processing
plants, through grocery stores, meat mar-
kets, hotels and restaurants, it became eS
sential to the protection of th health of
the general public to institute a broad
system of food inspections. This duty was
placed:in the Department of Agriculture,

CHEMISTRY

Since the proper inspection and
analysis of foods of all kinds, feed for
livestock, insecticides, fungicides, drinks
and dairy products, commercial fertilizer,
etc. require the skill of chemists, the
State chemistry laboratory was set up
and oprates under the Commissioner of
Agriculture. It was also necessary to set
up a veterinary laboratory for the control
and eradication of livestock disease. In
recent years in cooperation with the
commissioners of Hall County and the
Georgia Poultry Improvement Associa=
tion we have set up a poultry laboratory
at Gainesville, Georgia, for the control
of poultry diseases. For the convenience
of livestock owners in South Georgia and
in cooperation with the Georgia Coastal
Plain Experiment Station we have set
up a livestock disease laboratory at
Tifton, Georgia..

Just as inspection of food for human
consumption is carried on, the State like

e FARMERS MARKETS
The production of the products of the
farm is only half the job. The other half
is marketing and distribution. Accord-
ingly, in 1935 the Legislature provided
for a system of state farmers markets
in addition to the bureau of markets
which had previously been authorized.
Under that authority we have built a
system of markets pretty generally over
the State. In 1944 the Commissioner of
Agriculture in a biennial report set out
a 10-year program for the development
of these markets. The main items set out
in that 10-year program were the con-







struction of markets, at Rome, Columbus,

Hog Prices



Georgia Departme
Agriculture >

Augusta and Savannah, with a large
transfer market at or near Washington,
D. C. We now have markets operating at
Rome, Columbus and Augusta and have
recently let contract for the building of
a large market at Savannah.
In addition to the building of
these four city markets, we have built
numerous producers markets all the way
from Rabun Gap to the Florida line. We
have also made tremendous enlarge-
ments and improvements on many of the
markets over the- State.

These markets still have need of
many improvements in the way of added
space for farmers and buyers, cooling
facilities, cold storage, grading and pack-
ing facilities, and more ready means of
communication. All of these are being
