CENTRAL OF GEORGIA TELLS OF PROGRESS AND
DEVELOPMENT IN ITS TERRITORY.
The extension of industry and the utilization of natural resources during recent
years in Georgia and Alabama is generally recognized. It is commonly accepted that
a solid foundation for present and future prosperity has been laid upon a basis ot
the growing diversification of agriculture and industry, cheap and abundant hydro¬
electric power and adequate transportation.
The Central of Georgia serves the verv heart and center of Georgia and Ala¬
bama with 1920 miles of line. Progress anti prosperity of the territory is reflected in
the revenue tonnage of the railroad which in the past 10 years has increased . •>
cent. It is the duty of the management to keep itself informed as to conditions so that
it may keep pace with the development of its territory and be prepared to supply
adequate and dependable transportation, without which no section can progiess and
upon which prosperity directly depends.
The Central of Georgia believes that the next 20 years will witness a develop¬
ment in Alabama and Georgia that will surpass even the strides made during the like
period just past. Its reasons for this confidence in the future are not based upon
conjecture but upon the facts as revealed by a study of what has been accomplished.
The Central of Georgia takes pride in calling public attention to certain significant
figures about the territory it serves:
The capital invested in manufactures in Alabama and Georgia in the period be¬
tween 1900 and 1923 increased 050 per cent, from 139 million dollars to 904 million
dollars; while the value of manufactured products increased 688 per cent, from 166
million dollars to 1142 million dollars.
Perhaps the most striking phase of industrial development in the South has been
the southward trend of the textile industry. In 1900 there were one and a quar¬
ter million active spindles in Alabama and Georgia. Now there are in round num¬
bers 4 million. The cotton consumption of those mills has increased trom 42/ thou¬
sand bales to a million three hundred and eighty-nine thousand bales. Thirteen years
ago Georgia and Alabama cotton mills manufactured products valued at 26 million
dollars. In 1923 the value of these products reached the astonishing figure of 288
million dollars, more than 10 times as much. The increased value is not due solely
to increased output but to the diversification of products of higher grade which have
replaced the yarns and sheeting of earlier days.
Likewise the steel industry in addition to producing pig iron is turning out rail,
cars, structural steel and a score of finished products.
The same history of diversification is found in agriculture, Georgia ami Ala
bama are no longer one-crop states relying upon cotton alone. The corn crop in
1900 brought the farmers of Georgia and Alabama 36 million dollars, in 1923 more
than 100 million dollars. The tobacco crop which in 1900 sold for a little more than
two hundred thousand dollars, last year was marketed for 9 million dollars, The
value of live stock on farms increased in this period from 68 million dollars to 267
million dollars.
Indicative of improved methods of agriculture is the investment of the farmers
of these two states in farm machinery, which was 18 million dollars in 1900 and
which lias grown to 98 million dollars in 1923.
In 1900 the individual deposits in Georgia and Alabama banks aggregated 48
million dollars. In 1923 this sum had grown to more than 10 times as much, or 508
million dollars.
The list might be extended to indefinite lengths, but these instances are signifi¬
cant as illustrating what has been accomplished and as indicating what may reason¬
ably be expected for the future in the light of past experience. The Central of Geor¬
gia has made large expenditures in order to supply satisfactory service for the ex¬ i
panding business needs of the section through which it operates, and it pledges itself
to continue that policy. To that end it is c ontinually improving all of its facilities so
that equipment, motive power, track, shops, and every part of its transportation plant
may be ready in advance for the continually increasing business we confidently an¬
ticipate.
Furthermore, there is evidence of sound public policy toward transportation
which offers assurance that the railroads of this section will not be restricted, by ad¬
verse sentiment, in measuring up to their obligations for the development of their
territory.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited.

ILL AT ASHEVILLE, N. C.
Friends of Mrs. A. A. Edgar, nee
Miss Connie Harvey, will be grieved
to know of her illness at a sanitarium
at Asheville, N. C.
Connie Harvey spent her childhood
and school days in Fort Valley with
her grand parents, Mr. and Mrs. J.
A. Harvey, her mother having died
at Connie’s birth.
Quite a few years since, after her
grand father’s death, she and Mrs.
Harvey moved to Atlanta, where
Connie held a good business position.
About two years since she was
married to Mr. A. A. Edgar who was
in business in Asheville, N. C., and
they have been very happy in their
married life there.
Her many friends wish for her
speedy recovery to health again, and
a long and happy life in her home in
Asheville.
