Chas. M. Grier, cashier, formerly manager of the Postal and Western Union Telegraph Compan

*
We summarize from the president's letter, Mr. R. F. Willingham, as follows:
Holdings: The corporation, through tho purchase of the Camp Wheeler warehouse area and Quar
termaster Hill, with the subsequent purchases of the pumping station at Wheeler, the 2 1-2 mile 10-inch
iron water pipe Iin.e connecting with the city water main, together with the lease secured for 50 years
on the 60 acres of land embracing all'of the warehouse area, and also a lease for 90 years with an'
option to buy the 230 acres, including theQuartermsster Hill and all contiguous land, gives the corpora
tion a complete manufacturing and storage plant ready for operation as soon as the canning machinery
is installled. Embraced in our holdings are 11 mill-constructed warehouse buildings of 10,000 square
feet each, a magnificent concrete refrigerating and cold storage plant with a capacity or 20 carloads
of fruit or vegetables, also five additional concrete buildings which will be utilized for potato curing
and storage warehouses, also a general office building and store building for our commissary and
general merchandising business, and 40 additional large buildings which will be used for dwellings.
This will comfortably house a village of six hundred people. Electric lights, city water and sewerage
will afford every modem convenience. * ,
Business: The business of the corporation will consist of two distinct departments, namely: Canning
and general storage.
■Canning: This will include all of the above enumerated fruits and vegetables. Contracts are now
being made daily with the farmers oi Middle Ceo.-gia; they agreeing on their part to plant a specified
acreage of various crops of vegetables desired and we agreeing on our part to buy same from them
at a fair market price. This will prove a tremendous help to the farmers in giving them an opportunity
of growing crops which the boil weevil will not destroy.
■General Storage: 'Macon's facilities for a general storage business are entirely inadequate and unde
veloped. We have had applications in the past 3} days for space to store hay, grain, automobiles,
machinery of all kinds, cotton seed meal, cotton seed hulls, cotton seed, and many other items of mer
chandise, totalling an enormous tonnage. Applicitions of this kind in the past were necessarily fumed
down, as there was no place in or near Macon which could handle the volume of business ready and
waiting for a-storage warehouse. We are now installing a sprinkler equipment in all of our warehouses
which gives us the lowest insurance rate in Macon.
Values: It is conservatively estimated that our holdings are worth more than twice what they cost and
subscribers to stock will get the benefit of this reduced cost in acquiring our properties.
Profits: dur initial installation of machinery will hindie 20,000 cans of bruit or vegetables pgr day,
which is 500,000 per month, or 6,000,000 cans per year. A conservative net profit on this business
b two cento per can, or $120,000 per year from ou - canning department We expect to double the
Capacity of our plant before next summer, which will double our profits. From our storage department
we are already assured enough business to warrant net earnings of $60,000 per Based on the
above earnings total net income woufd be $180,000 per annum, or 60 per cent on $300,000, or
$30.00 per share profit on each $50.00 share. Of the 6,000 shares to be issued, 3,600 have already
been subscribed, leaving a balance of 2,400 to be taken.
Subscriptions will be booked in the order received, and alter the 2.400 are sold no more subscrip
tions will be accepted. Liberty Bonds in paym. nt of stock will be accepted at current market, quota
tions; stock to be paid for 10 per cent, cash with subscription. 30 per cent in 30 days, 30 per cent, in
60 days, 30 per cent in 90 days. Farmers are especially invited to participate with us in view of the
large volume of business we will have with them.
