ALL OF SOUTH GEORGIA IS NOW
CASHING IN SAYS HAL M. STANLEY
In e opinion of Ha! M. Stanley,
:Oi sioner of commerce and labor,
1 -Jhrding Secretary of the Geor
.
__■» Association, all that part
i Rf" rSouth Llawn Hr dele,'Vienna, ville .and fin, ton' tomobile Stanley Adel, prosperity Butler, of Cairo, state Georgia” the trip Valdosta, has greatest commonly Moultrie, Perry Amerieus, including this just is and Quitman, state completed period right Ashburn, Macon, referred stops this Albany, has of Thomas- at at growth known, and an to Grif- Cor- Tif- au- the he as
sums up the conditions way:
South Georgia has just reaped one
her richest harvests, and is now
caged in reaping another—and even
r one The flood-tide of human
.
L,,»^^veling South is finding, for, in largely, South
■tfee location it is looking
Ceorgia.
Mi/. Stanley, who is familiar wjth
<wery nook and corner of Georgia,
and the people and conditions, is con
Yin** 1 that the turn of tide now back
mg n the lower part of the state ,
is bl le immediate fore-runner of
a spread that will, in less than two
years, cover all of Georgia.
Discussing his impression with The
Week, Mr. Stanley says:
a I found that South Georgia is now
■entering upon its greatest era of pros
penty. Everywhere there is that
timistic feeling which is catching, and
•one has but to make a careful obser
vation to find the reason.
South Georgia this year made
crops—cotton, tobacco, , , cane
Jj£potatoes, and of these I was most
QKfssed with the greatness of the
South Georgia cane crop. Nowhere
does cane grow in greater profusion ’
and I daresay nowhere is there a
ter grade of cane syrup made. The
principal crop is known as Cayana-10,
a prolific producer and an excellent
mjp cane.
‘Tt visited the Roddenberry plant at
feairo, where Mr. Roddenberry’s per
sonai crop runs 160 acres, and from
-which he expects a yield this year of
i»t least 1,700 barrels of syrup. His
mill is being run in two shifts a day,
and at that it will take him until
i about the first of next February to
^complete his grinding.
11 But that is merely an incident in
1 this vast South Georgia territory,
only illustrates.
likely Albany and Valdosta,
tor,. ffeeling -1 ' their new Hotel projects, are
the effects of this period of
I progressive development a little more
I 1 generously than some of the other
places, but at all the places I visited
,
pi found the pessimist is either buried
Ifer converted, and everywhere the
ggeople i exude i an atmosphere * rsf of cer
Bainty that forwards progress all
Bver that part of the state has start
’The lower part of the state gon
is beginning now to reap the
iult of a considerable “backwash’
Im Florida. More people who tra
tASouth to go to Florida are een

I jireviuus time. I found many in

A day’s work on
the Southern
When a railroad system extends for
8,000 miles across eleven states and em¬

work.
Here are the figures of an average day
on the Southern Railway System:
Trains operated . 1,270
Passengers carried . 50,000
Carloads of freight-loaded on
our lines and received from
other railroads . . . 8,000

motives . . . 14,000
Wages paid . . $ 220,000
