Our Job—
more Profitable Farming
as well as more INDUSTRIES
S INCK the recent announcement of the
Georgia Power Company Profitable
Fanning Award, some folks have
asked—Why is the Georgia Power Com-
pany interested in farming? What has a
public utility to do with agriculture?
Community development is a part of our
job. Above is reproduced one of the adver
tisements we publish <n magazines of
national circulation in an effort to induce
new industnes to locate in Georgia. New kl-
dustnes in Georgia mean new customers to
buy our power, greater wealth for Georgia,
greater opportunities for us to hB our prod,
ucl So we promote Georgia's ndustnal
growth in any way wa can.
Promoting Geor
gia's agriculture
likewise our job, and
for the same reasons.
Our business succew
depends so greatly
r GEO]L<
j
on Georgia’s prosperity, and so much
of Georgia's wealth comes from the soil,
it would be strange if we did not wish to
do everything we can to help make Georgia
farms more prosperous—now more so than
ever, since the expansion of our service into
new sections recently has so greatly in
creased the number of our customers de
pendent entirely or almost entirety on
wealth that comas from the farms.
It's a simple business proposition with
us. AH of our business is done in Georgia,
■nd almost Iks only way wa can hope to
promote our business it by promoting the
welfare and prosperity of our cutwmtw
in Georgia. We with to hatp make Geor
gia farms more pros
perous, not for any
charitable raaaan.

it's good but
for ua to do k.
