SURPLUS CORN
PUT INTO BOGS
Example How it Raised the
Price 35c to Dollar per
Bushel. '
Atlanta,! Ga,,*'Dec. f 24. —Corn
growers in Georgia and through
out the South, (according to farm
experts here today, have found
an indirect!market for their crop,
and’instead of getting as low as
35 cents a bushel for. their crop,
they are promised a dollar a
bushel and even more.
Selling corn through the medi
um of pork Tand beef provides
this indirect, though highly
profitable, market for the grow
ers.
Farmers 'in’ the west, where
large crops of corn are grown,
experts here state, largely dis
pose of their crop in fattening
cattle for the market, thus re
alizing on the corn several times
as much as would be received
in directlsales. Southern grow
ers. it is pointed out, who have
followed the western plan, have
trebled the their corn
and at the same time netted
profits on their cattle.
“Some of the farmers have
overlooked their best opportuni
ty and have been fooled into the
idea that, cotton will always sell
at from 15 cents to 40 cents a
pound,” said an expert here to
day. “The]' cotton crop in
Georgia was very short this year,
due to unusual weather condi
tions and the boll weevil. On
the other hand, corn is usually
produced in Georgia under every
sort of weather condition, as
born out by the production this
year of the largest crop ever
harvested.”
Figures obtained here today
show that Georgia has produced
in 1921 the largest corn crop
ever harvested. The total yield
is estimated to be 87,975,000
bushels or an average of 15 bush
els to the acre.
While many farmers have let
their hogs gather part of their
corn crop this fall, rather than
sell it at current prices, only a
few of them have kept any ac
curate account of the resuits, it
was stated at the agricultural
department. Among these is
J. W. Coleman, former chairman
of the board of Colquitt county
commissioners and one of the
best known farmers near Moul
trie.
Mr. Coleman’s record to date
reveals that by marketing his
corn via the hog route, he has
received more than $1 a bushel
for it, against 40 cents, the price
being paid for it on the Moultrie
market.
A few weeks ago he turned a
bunch of hogs into a corn field
that he estimated would yield
700 bushels, certainly no more
than that, it is stated. At that
time the hogs weighed 2,200
pounds, receiving for them
$137.50. Afterward he found
that those left in the field weigh
ed 20,000 pounds, representing a
gain of 5,000 pounds. This 5.000
pound gain in weight, at 6 1-4
cents a pound, the price of hard
hogs on the Moultrie market,
would represent $312.50
Mr. Coleman estimates that
not more than half of the 700
bushels of corn in the field has
been eaten, and by the method
of marketing it he has adopted,
he has received $450 for the 350
bushels consumed. The hogs will
be kept in the field until the corn
is consumed. Mr. Coleman says
the results of the test so far
lead him to belieye that he will
certainly get more than $1 a
bushel net for the corn.
Will Ship Cream.
Mr. B. A. Conner of Higgston
will be the first farmer of this
section to start cream shipments
to the Dublin creamery. Mr.
Conner expects to make his
initial shipment this week.
A large number of farmers in
this section are interested in the
matter of dairying and it is ex
pected that a number will start
shipments after the holidays.—
