THAT SINCE Tom Linder Commissioner WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1954 MERS MARKET REPORT NUMBER 6 ing Division of the State Depart-> equate markets for the move- he importance of providing mar-. s markets could be success-~ 1941 THROUGH 1953 GROSS SALES ON THESE MARKETS HAVE AMOUNTED TO OVER FIVE HUN- DRED MILLION DOLLARS. Before the establishment of this sys- tem of farmers markets, Georgias crop system was composed of just a few cash crops, however, for the past number of years, by virtue of the fact that the farm- ers have more marketing facilities with- in an easy haul from any section of the State, the growing of truck crops has proved to be a big factor in his cash in- come at the end of the year. ATLANTA MARKET The Commissioner of Agriculture pur- chased sixteen acres of land on Murphy Avenue in southwest Atlanta and the construction of the market was begun in 1940. The market was officially opened in May 1941 and has never been closed day or night since the day it was opened. The sale of produce on the market dur- ing the remaining months of 1941 amount- ed to Six Million Dollars, increasing to over Ten Million by 1942. The growth of this market has been phenomenal and it has shown a substantial increase in sales each year. For the year 1953 sales amounted to over Forty-three Million Doilars. The market is known as the ter- / minal market of all Southeastern States. MACON MARKET This market was constructed in 1936, and has been in operation continuously. Old buildings were torn down and the market was completely modernized in 1951. The market supplies the Macon area and sales increased continuously, In 1953 they amounted to approximately Six Million Dollars. THOMASVILLE MARKET This too is one of the earlier markets, having been opened for business in 1936. It has continued in operation since that date. Construction of modern facilities _ was started in 1946 and completed in 1951. -It is located in the center of one of the _finest vegetable producing sections of Georgia. Its sales have increased rapidly. In 1953 sales amounted to. over Seven Million Dollars. All sales are at auction and as products reach the market in vol- ume, the larger buyers go to the market Knowing they can procure their require- ments of full or mixed loads at any time during the season. z CORDELE MARKET _ This market is located on U. S. Hwy. 41, one mile north of the city of Cordele. It is outstanding in many respects. It is generally known as the Watermelon Capitol of Georgia. It is one of the largest pecan auction markets in the southeast. Growers from all sections of the area bring their watermelons, cantaloupes, and other products to the Cordele Market, as buyers are always there to purchase them. TIFTON MARKET This market was constructed in 1942. It outgrew its original facilities and was moved to a larger and better location. It is developing rapidly. Last season over a Million Dollars worth of tomatoes were marketed here. Annual sales amounted to approximately Three Million Dollars, COLUMBUS MARKET The department acquired the market facilities from the city of Columbus in 1949 and immediately began construct- ion of the new and larger market with modern facilities. The market serves the southwest section of Georgia and south- east Alabama. Sales last year amounted to approximately Six Million Dollars. AUGUSTA MARKET In 1951 this narket was acquired from the city of Augusta and the market was greatly enlarged and modernized. The market serves a great section of south- east Georgia and much of the production ' area in western South Carolina. It is a valuable link in the marketing system. SAVANNAH MARKET It is a new market, built in 1954, modern in every way and destined to be- come one of the leading markets in this great chain of State Farmers Markets. Sales for the first six months have amounted to approximately One and One- half Million Dollars. Of equal importance to this system of State Farmers Markets are markets located in MOULTRIE, ROME, ATHENS, VALDOSTA, TOCCOA, PELHAM, CA- MILLA, GLENNVILLE, DILLARD, JES- UP, VIDALIA, HAZLEHURST, DON- ALSONVILLE, NASHVILLE, LEES- BURG, CAIRO, AND COOK COUNTY. These form a network of markets pro- viding market services for almost every section of Georgia. Through these mar- kets in 1953, approximately Eighty-five Million Dollars in produce moved from the producer to the consumer. Very respectfully, W. L.
