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. Vote for Talbert. He is worthy and well qualified.
