THE PEACH ORCHAD STATE \
Say “Georgia” and you conjure up
visions of acre after acre of peach
trees in blossom. At picking time
these trees yield nearly five million
bushels of fruit. But Georgia has
other products. Over a million and a
half bales of cotton—nearly four
million bushels of peanuts—in all
a hall billion dollars in farm products
annualy. And her manufactures have
made great slides —reaching
$693,237,000 in 1919.
Georgia typifies the New South—
Scientific cultivation, diversification
j of crops—factories to take her own
raw materials. In htlr own growth her
j hanks have done their part. It has
j been the privilege of the Bank of the
j Manhattan Company to work with
| them to serve her farms and factories
