SUPPORT GRADY'S
DAIRY CO-OP
Wednesday of this week the
Mayfield Cremery was taken
over by the Dairy Co-op of Grady
County, owned and operated by
five milk producer-stockholders
of the county. It is expected that
within a few months four or five
| other producers will join the co¬
op.
We are firm belivers in support
j n g h ome enterprises, since all the
money spent here effects the
I general economy of the area,
! and indirectly helps everyone
that lives and makes his liveli
hood here.
We opposed the effort to keep
I the Moultrie Milkshed out by
, means of a city ordinance, be
cause we felt it was an unfair and
* unlawful way to keep out a legiti- ,
mate competitor. The Georgia
Supreme Court looked at it the
same way.
It has been established by
State tests that the milk processed
here at Mayfield’s Creamery is as
good, if not better, than any in
the state. In view of this fact,
there seems to be no good reason,
except petty grievances which
ought to be forgotten, for the
people of Cairo and the county
not buying and using home-pro¬
duced milk.
If the Dairy Co-op of Grady
County supplies you with the
same high grade milk, as they
do, and gives you the same kind
of service, as they no doubt will
strive to do, then you will be
helping yourself and your com¬
munity by giving them your busi¬
ness.
■V
EGG PRODUCERS URGED
TO TRY CO-OP PLAN
A plan is under study here to
provide, through an egg co-op,
a better market locally for the
eggs produced in Grady County.
The plan is more fully described
in a story in this issue.
It seems to be well established
that the Grady egg producers
under the present set-up are at
a considerable disadvantage.
Many of them, in order to be
assured of a market for their eggs,
are then, more or less, forced to
buy feed well above the price of
local feed dealers. It is also
pointed out that they often do
not get the top market price for
their eggs.
This is, in effect, a double dis¬
advantage that certainly should
not be tolerated in one of the
top egg producing counties of the
state.
Those who know the situation
say it could be improved by
establishing an egg co-operative
locally where the eggs would be
auctioned once or twice a week.
We do not know all about
co-ops, or how this plan would
work out in practice; but it cer¬
tainly seems worthy of a trial by
the Grady egg producers.
Already there is suspicion that
opposition to any such co-op is
developing here. This is not sur¬
prising. There always has been
those opposed to the farmer gett¬
ing a decent price for anything
he raises. And largely through
J cooperation and organization the
farmers in recent years have been
able to overcome some of this
opposition.
If the egg producers of the
county are for this plan and will
get behind it, the opposition if
I any here, can be trampled over.
We urge the egg producers to
learm more about the plan, and
1 if it seems to be an improvement
over the present situation, to sup¬
port it 100 percent.

JOBLESS BENEFITS
TO BE RAISED
Governor Talmadge was ex¬
pected this week to sign a bill
which will increase the payments
to Georgia’ unemployed and
reduce the cost to the employers
also. The bill, passed by the
General Assembly last week,
would increase the maximum
we ®kly payments to the jobless
from $18 to $20, and increase the
rHE CAIRO MESSENGER. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3. 1950.
number of weeks one might re¬
ceive benefits from 16 to 20. The
law will reduce the minimum
contributions of employers from
one-half of one percent to one
•fourth of one percent.
Considering the amount of
money said to be on .hand for un
pimnlovmpnt employment ibpnpfit*! ueneutb, thig mis seems
to be an appropriate move to
make. According to State Labor
■Commissioner Ben T. Huiet Geor
gia now has more than $100,000,
000 in reserves on deposit in
Washington to take care of the
unemployed.
A hundred million dollars is a
lot of money, even in Washing¬
ton, and speaks well for the un¬
employment insurance program
as a whole. This amount would
take care of a great number of
jobless people for a considerable
length of time. While it would
not last idefinitely if there were
any wholesale decrease in em¬
ployment, it would certainly be
a great ^improvement over what
we had in 1929 when THE de¬
pression hit us. At that time we
had no such program at all.
For only a minor recession or
dropping off in employment this
money will afford a safe and
comfortable cushion for the
shock.
