JIM PRICE’S PLAIN
TALK TO FARMERS
Statement From Only “Practical
Farmer’’ in Race for Commis
sioner of Agriculture.
To the Voters, and Especially to the
Farmers, of Georgia:
Believing as 1 do that a candidate
for the office of commissioner of ag
riculture should meet and talk with
the voters, and particularly with the
farmers, that they might have oppor
tunity to see and know him, I have
visited some eighty Georgia counties
during th s caropa gn and met thou
sands of good citizens; and l shall
continue until the primary, visiting as
many counties as it is possible for
me to reach.
J. D. PRICE,
Of Oconee, Candidate for Cornmis
. sioner of Agriculture.
But it is impossible for me to meet
every one, so I take this method of
soliciting your valuable support.
Nothing 1 ever did in my i fe, has
afforded me more pleasure or instruc
tion than traveling over the state,
nuetng and talking with you in this
campaign; for it has not only made
me know and love my fellow-men
more than ever hefor r \ but it has
ihown me the needs of the country,
ai.U how best to deal with them,
I am a farmer, and
farming is my ONLY INTEREST. I
may be pardoned for skying that J am
:he omy pract.cal farmer seeking
•your suffiage for rhe oliice of com
nutsioner ci agriculture. Neither of
my opponents—both good men—pos
spses this quaiii'-catidn which the
law demands; neither of them makes
farming his occupation.
In creating lii s department the leg
islature said, in the very outset, (set
section 17110, c vil code is 95 > that tin.
cfiiee shotid be filled by a PKACTi
’CAL FARMER mean’ng one whose
business is farm ng and who liar
made a succ ss of u. 1 quote from tin.
foreeoing code section:
“Sec. 1790 —Commissioner, how
elected. Sa d department shall be
under the control and management ot
'one officer, who shall he known a
the commissioner of agriculture, who
shall he a p:actical farmer, elected
by pet sons qua.died to vote for mem
bers of the general assembly,” etc.
If l am elected to this office, it
shall he my a m not only to conform
to the letter, hut to the spirit’ of the
law, the ch ef end of which, as I sec
it, is to afford assistance and help
wherever the ta mer needs it, wheth
er it be an ind vidual, a community
cr the whole state, if the one-hors ■
farmer has a sick mule cow or hog
he can command me as quickly a.
the man with a hundred, or the com
in unity with a thousand.
And, r ght here, I want to tell you
I am for the one-horse and the two

] believe, iies the dependence of the
state; he is our biggest asset. Bui
lie will make a better farmer and a
more important asset, if he owns hie
own farm, no matter how small. Ne
pro leaders are preaching this doc
tr ne to their race; it is up to us ic
put it into practice.
Much to do is be Tig made over a
certain fertilizer bill pending in th’
legislature, the effect of which, i;
passed, would be to prohibit the sa!
of anything but the highest grads
fertilizers. Now I want to say that I
have no interest, directly or ndirec!-
ly. in any feitilizer concern under the
sun, and I believe in high-grade fer
tilizers; I use them myself, and 1
think it is to the best interest ol ev
ery farmer to use them. But I can
not subscribe to a law which proh.L
its any man from buy eg just what
he wants. Suppose the state were
to pass a law saying you could buy
nothing but a $250 mule to work youi
farm. You go to the mule dealer; hi
says, “That mule over there is worth
only SIOO, but I can’t sell you that
one because the law prohibits it.”
The principle is the same.
Rut I’ll tell you what I can do and
what I propose to do if I am elected,
ar.d that is to see to it strictly that
every sack of fertilizer sold in this
=tate has branded on the bag just
exactly what it so that the
