[ITT MART ONLY W TO FISHT HIGH PRICES So Declares Leader in Cam paign for a Public Produce Exchange in Atlanta. E c. Branson, president of the State formal school, in a statement today (hows the advantages of a city market Atlanta and praises the Atlanta T league’s campaign to have one stablished. He declares that it would w ,terlaliv lower the cost of living. Mr. B an-on who is leader of the Georgia ? i ub which is working for the same abject, declares: The increased cost of living makes the c ity market everywhere a pinching necessitv. Last June the Atlanta pa- De rs announced that the cost of living here had reached the highest point in 81 rears; that the general advance in the' wholesale price of foodstuffs had been 20 P«r cent dur,n X the Previous month, and that the wholesale price of meats had advanced from 34 to 40 per ent m3O days. The New York papers sported during the summer that the people of that city were paying from J-200.000 to 3300.000 a day for food sup ,jes more than they were paying a rear ago; that is, from seven and a quarter million to a billion dollars or more during the year! Relatively the , fl me thing is true of Atlanta and every other American city. And no relief is in sig. despite the bumper crops of the preset, year. In Georgia our population has in creased two and a half times over in 60 years, but there were fewer hogs raised in Georgia in 1910 than in 1850, n-hiir the cattle on farms and ranges were barely more than 60 years ago. The cost of living makes one’s top- Knot stand straight up already, but the authorities warn us that it must be greater still in the future. American cities are, therefore, forced, willy-ni.’ly. as Uncle Remus says, to adopt the old world remedy of open, well regulated city markets. • Nashville's Market a Boon. "In April two members of the Geor gia club spent nearly a week studying Vi Nashville city market. Each day they ( ipped the market quotations from ' Nashville newspapers. Upon comparison with the market report of Atlanta for the same days, it was found that the farmers were getting nearly 30 per cent more for JheAr home-raised products, while the buyers in Nashville were paying about 10 per cent less than Atlanta people were paying for the same articles. The farmers get more, the people in the city pay Jess for food stuffs in Davidson county. Tennessee. High prices are making the farmers of Davidson county prosperous and contented. While they are getting more for what they raise, the consumers in Nashville are paying legs for these tilings than the buyers in Atlanta. City markets give the farmers a chance to share liberally in the general prosperity of the community. "But, on the other hand, look at the languishing state of agriculture in Pul ton county. The census returns of 1910 f ine 23 per cent fewer cattle, 80 per cent fewer sheep. 20 per cent fewer bogs and 43 per cent fewer poultry raised in the county than in 1900. While the city grew at a 72 per cent rate dur ing the census period the farm regions 1 f the county lost more than 8 per cent o' ‘heir population. Twenty-one hun dred and sixty-three of the people on the farms of Fulton county moved out o' the farm regions, bag and baggage, ' rip and scrippage. The farms culti 'ate< by owners in Fulton county de creased from 48 to 41 per cent. The I runty lost in the ten years 36 per cent II its corn acreage. 7 per cent of its oats acreage and 65 per cent of its "heat acreage. And while campaigning a city mar- Atlanta might as well take the lead ■ he United States in another impor ’• nt matter. There ought to be in this a rest room for the farm ' with lounges, chairs, tables for tapers, periodicals and books, lavatory mlet room facilities, a comforta •ittractlve place that the farm may call their own. A similar f on ought to be provided for the At present these facilities 1 ’ for flie farmers by the ‘■"-he. saloons in the city! Would ELDERLY FOLKS!

Grocers Are Benefifed. "But a further word needs to be said. Just as one might expect, the grocers are invariably opposed to a city market in cities that do not have such market, but the grocers are invariably In favor of city markets wherever they have been already established. They visited the grocers of the city. Every man jack of them all was in favor of the city market. They all wondered what they would do without the city market. "Atlanta will be obliged to have a city market. It is Hobson's choice. But every day and every minute of every day of delay makes the problem more enormous and more difficult of solution. “The securing of some central, open, ample space for a city market, and the erection of an adequate building, with modern facilities, means a great in vestment in money to Atlanta; consid ering the skyward flight of real estate values in this growing city, the prob lem is more easily solved this year than next or the next.
