The Merchant Must Find
A Market For The Farmer
Pres. Andrew M. Soule, Georgia State College of Agriculture
The merchant and the city man
have encouraged the farmer of the
South to diversify his crops. It would
now seem essential that they aid him
in finding a satisfactory market for
what he raises. While farmers of the
South cannot be expected to soon
raise, for instance, enough grain to
make it worth while to construct
warehouses and elevators, it would
teem possible for the merchants to
co-operate, grade and ship in car-load
lots to the advantage of all parties
concerned.
Should a merchant feel that he does
not want to disturb liis connection
with organizations that supply him
western hay and grain, he must then
cease doing business with the fanner
who has his diversified farm products
for sale, which he will hardly want to
do if the movement is of any conse
quence in his community.
It is doubtless true that the farm
er does not know how to grade and
pack his products for the market. It
will be impossible to teach him imme
diately, do what we may. Therefore,
as has been suggested, the merchant
who takes the products may do the
grading and find it worth while. Of
course, a greater part of the farm
Cholera Serum Reduced
Dr. W. M. Burson, Prof. Vet. Science,
Ga. State College Of Agriculture.
Beginning with January 1, 1915, the
price of hog cholera serum manufac
tured by the state at the College of
Agriculture was reduced so that it
now sells at 1 1-4 cents per cubic
centimeter instead of 1 1-2 cents. The
new price is just half what it was in
1912, when it was first offered for
sale by the state.
Recent reports of demonstration
agents in Georgia who administered
hog cholera serum show 212 herds
treated. Cholera already existed
in these herds. In fact, 410 hogs
had died of the disease before the se
rum was administered, and 447 were
slok of it when treated. The total sick
an 1 well treated was 6.629. Of this
nut iber 336 died after treatment. The
percentage lost was 5.09 and the per
centage saved was 94.91.

produce that the Southern farmer
will have for sale, will be turned
over to the country merchant in ex
change for goods. The merchant gets
a profit off of his goods, of course,
and if he then will grade and pack
properly for the market, as he can
with several commodities, he will be
in position to make another profitable
transaction.
Much can be accomplished both in
aid of diversification and in market
ing, by hoards of trades of towns
and cities. Why should they not
make a census of the possible produce
for sale in a given trade radius, ob
tain the co-operation of merchants or
farmers for large shipments 1 and di
rect attention of the large dealers to
the business to he obtained? Why
should trade organizations not system
atically wage a campaign of education
about grading and marketing deficits
crops suited to a given area?
The State College of Agriculture has
the information, it is perfectly willing
to do everything in its power, but its
resources are, of course, limited and,
only through co-operation with locaj
organized agencies can it accomplish
the largest amount of good. This cm
operation it welcomes to the end alon*
that the College may do its aducatir*
work.
