Dairying Industry
Proves Profitable
Dairying ranks as one of the
most profitable farm enterprises.
According to the 1930 U. S. Cen
sus, dairy farms were more tb an
three times as profitable as cotton
farms in Georgia. Georgia’s 390,
000 producing dairy cows have a
value of $13,650,000 and the val
ue of their products is
mate j y $30 000,000 annually.

needs of the state. Dairy cattle
furnish profitable employment for

year they provide a good market
for farm grown feeds without the
cost of Processing or de

Georgia educators are carefully
examining a proposal for the so
of state school problems |
advocated by K. A. Hill, an un
opposed candidate for the legis
ladure from Clarke County.
The suggestion which has arous
ed considerable discussion involves
a constitutional amendment which.
if ratified by the people, would
provide a definite per centage of
the gross state income to be al
located to the public schools. This
then would place the “duly qual
ified teachers in the common
schools upon an equal basis, as to
salaries, with other officers of the
state such as governor, judges and
legislators; so that upon a failure j
or shortage of funds all would
bear the loss on a pro rata basis.”
Carlisle Cobb, Athens attorney,
in an exhaustive article in the
Athens Banner-Herald, stated
that the plan would solve the pro
blem and should be incorporated
mto state law.
He added. “____(the) amend- | i
ment, if ratified by the people,
is binding on everybody, even on
the Governor, the legislature, and
the Supreme Court, and neither
so-called “Grandfather Clauses”
nor anything else can supercede
it.
Roberts Demands
Square Deal for
Milk in Georgia
Charging that the middleman in
the milk business in Georgia is I
now permitted to rob both the
farmer who produces milk and the
house-wife who buys it in the
big cities, Columbus Roberts, Com
missioner of Agriculture, promis
ed a square deal for both pro
ducer and consumer when he is
elected governor.
Commissioner Roberts was
speaking on the first of a series
of “breakfast table chats” to be
made over Radio Station WSB at
7 o’clock (6 a. m. Central Stand
ard Time) every Saturday morn
ing in August.
Milk prices and the amount of
milk each farmer can sell on the
city markets are both regulated
by the Milk Control Board, A
majority of the board is now con
trolled by the milk trust compos
ed of the big dairy plants in At
lanta, the commissioner charged.
Through rigging by this trust
controlled majority, the intention
of the milk control law, as passed
by the legislature, is being en
tirely lost. It was intended to get
the farmer a fair price for his
milk while protecting the inter
ests of the consumer.
In spite of the fact that the
Milk Control Board has raised the
price to consumers to 14 cents a
quart, the producer is now get
ting less for his milk than he did
before the law was passed. The
price is now so high that poor
families in the cities cannot buy
what their children need, while
the farmer gets so little that he
cannot afford to expand his herds
and build the rich dairy industry
that Georgia's climate and other
natural advantages, would en
courage.
Commissioner Roberts promised
that, when he is elected governor,
he will put men and women in
charge of milk control in Georgia
who will administer the law for
the benefit of all the people in
stead of just a small clique of At
lanta dairy plants interested only
in their own profits.
Vegetable seed sold after Aug
ust 9 that are shipped in inter
state commerce must be handled
in accordance with requirements
of the Federal Seed Act.
Inability to obtain cotton which
has been ginned properly and
which is smooth in preparation has
made it difficult for cotton mills
to meet buyer requirements.

Conger Appointed
R. R. Spokesman
Mr. A. B. Conger, prominent
j Bainbridge, Georgia attorney and
newly chosen representative for all
railroads in Georgia, today issued
a public statement in which he
; predicted that at least 10 per cent
°f Georgia s railway workers, or
2300 employees, would automat
ically be thrown out of work
should the proposed gasoline pipe
jj nes become a reality in Georgia.
Conger, well-known in state le
gal circles, was selected at a re
cent meeting of representatives
from all railroads operating in
Georgia, as official spokesman for !
the railways. He will set up offices
immediately at in 1314-22 Atlanta, Marietaj Geor- j
Street Building
gia.
Explaining that the railroads op
erating in Georgia derive approx- ;
imately 10 per cent of their pres
en t revenue from the transporta
t ion of gasoline and oil shipments.
Mr Conger expressed alarm at the
‘
£ sure being brought to bear
pon members of the Georgia leg
islature by representatives of the
oil companies, to enact new legis’
lation giving pipe line companies
the right to condemn private prop
and , to . cr oss publ , * hlghw £ yS
in laying gasohne , pipe lines<
The Supreme Court of Georgia
has already ruled that the pipe
line companies do not have this
right, and that they cannot acquire
such right except through legisla
tive ac ti° n -
“The question is not merely one
affecting the railway employee.
themselves,’ Mr. Conger pointed
out. “Hundreds of farmers and re- !
tail merchants over the state get
a good part of their business from
railway employees, and in lum
ber, cross ties, and supplies bought
by the railroads themselves.”
