The announcement that a
modern meat packing plant will

with public approval. Farmers
who have been worried over the
local situation because of the
coming of the Mexican boll
weevil, are smiling once again.
Raising hogs for the packing
plant will solve the problem.

that the plant will be ready for
killing by November first of this
year. This announcement comes
from some of the leading mem
bers and is authentic. Of course
their is the possibility of • some
unforseen hinderence springing
up to delay building operations
but the plant will be rushed to
completion early in the fall.
A plant that will kill 500 hogs
a day and 75 head of cattle is to
be erected. This will be large
enough to care for the output of
Decatur ana the a'd j o i n i n g
counties. Highest market prices
will be paid by this plant.
The men behind the project
are anxious for thfe farmers to
begin growing hogs for the plant.
If the farmer will make it a point
to fatten hogs every month in
the year the plant will be a suc
cess. If the hogs of the county
are to be marketed three months
out of the year the plant will not
live long.
The men who are putting their
money into the packing plant be
lieve that the fanners of south
west Georgia are sensible enough
to see the advantage of fattening
hogs every month of the year for
market.. Hogs bring batter prices
at other times than when the
market is glutted. It will pay
both the farmer and the plant
handsomly is hogs are brought to
market 52 weeks out of the year.
Definite plans, as to location,
stockholders, etc. cannot be
made public just at this point.
But twenty of the strongest men
in the county have said ‘‘We’ll
build a packing plant and have
it ready bv the fall”, and that
stands sponsor for this entire
article.
A packing plant operated in
Bainbridge Jfor the farmers of
this and adjacent counties, will
mean a bigger better Bainbridge,
Decatur county, and Southwest
Georgia. Packing plants and
prosperity go hand in hand
Packing plants furnish a market
for practically anything that can
be raised on the farm.
