Better Marketing
Needed in Stale
“More efficient marketing is
needed in rural areas of Georgia,’
L. E. Farmer, State Extension Ser
vice marketing specialists, said this
week in pointing out that if the
average automobile dealer were no
more efficient in marketing than
die average farmer, a car priced at
>l,OOO at the factory would retail in
Georgia for $2,561.
Mr. Farmer said that average re
turns for farm products in the Uni
ted States in 1946 were as follows:
38.4 percent; transportation, 6.4;
assembling farm products, 3.6; pre
paration and processing of products,
21.0; wholesaling, 6.8; and retailing,
23.8.
Georgia farmers could obtain
much more than the 38 percent of
the value of farm products sold by
performing more of the steps invol
ved in marketing, such as assemb
ling, grading and packing the pro
duct, Mr. Farmer asserted. He also
said that there is an opportunity in
some sections for farmers to work
together with the retailers to cut
the costs of performing this phase
of marketing.
Using Jones County as an exam
ple, the marketing specialists point
ed out that the cash farm income
for all products sold in this county
in 1946 amounted to $723,000. A
round $170,000 came from fruits and
nuts, $65,000 from vegetables and
$300,000 from livestock and live
stock products. Miscellaneous crops
and poultry made up the remainder
of the $723,000-value.
Cost of marketing these crops a
mounted to $1,131,000, Mr. Farmer
said, and this made consumers pay
$1,854,000 for the products.

10-Pound Coupons
Individual sugar consumers do
lot need to fill application forms for
the new 10-pound ration coupons to
je validated on April 1, E. Burns
Brooks, Director, Atlanta Sugar
Branch Office, emphasized.
The sugar executive revealed
that his office is “swamped” with
unnecessary mail from consumers
under the erroneous belief that they
must apply for the now 10-pound
coupons.
•N o application is necessary.”
' Brooks declared. “The very purpose
’ of the 10-pound allotments, replac
ing five-pound stamps, was to en
able the program to continue with
’ out the necessity of issuing _ new
stamps. One of the spare stamps
now held by consumers will be vali
dated on or before April 1.”
Spare ration stamp No. 53 is valid
for five pounds of sugar through
’ March 31, 1947.
