G GEORGIA business records farms basis— and are miking keeping getting money. careful on a
I That is the one fact that stands out in
J bold relief from figures just announced
by the Georgia State College of Agricul¬
ture— announcing prize winners in the
| Farming 1930 Georgia Contest, Power which Company conducted Profitable
i was
under the supervision of the College.
i
j The idea behind this contest was to
encourage business management on the
j farm and to bring to light actual, provable
I examples of money-making Georgia
farms. Profitable, well-rounded manage¬
ment—with all farms, large and small,
on an equal footing—was the final acid
test in making all awards.
Each contestant was judged by these
hix factors:
(l) Interest on investment; (2) Crop
Yields, as compared with the state aver¬
age; (3) Diversity of profitable products;
(4) Labor Distribution— lays of pro¬
j ductive and non-productive labor in the
year; (5) Income Distribution — regu¬
larity of farm receipts throughout the
year, and (6) Reserve — cash set aside,
or its equivalent in feed and supplies, as
art operating reserve.
j Careful, day-by-day book-keeping was
required. Each successful contestant
made a detailed inventory at the begin¬
ning of the contest; another at its conclu¬
; sion. He kept a daily record of his exr
penditures, his receipts, distribution and
cost of labor, improvements—everything
that came in and went out in the man¬
agement of his farm.
These farmers knew what they
were doing every day in the year. Their
records were such that—like any other
well-regulated business—they could at
any time show their bankers definite,
provable financial statements.
Tire Contest Will Be Repeated In 1931
Because of our sincere desire to help build up agriculture throughout the state, the
contest will be continued in 1931, with awards totaling $1,000. Counties designated by
the State College to participate in the 1931 contest are, by geographical divisions:
j NORTHEAST: Clarke, franklin, Hart, SOUTHEAST: Bulloch, Candler, Jen¬
j Madison, Morgan, Walton. kins, Jefferson, Toombs, Washington.
i NORTHWEST: Chattaopa, Cherokee, SOUTHWEST: Berrien, Tift, Dooly,
Cobb, Coweta, Gordon, Whittield. Houston, Smmter, Turtsec.

f ■A STATEMENT OF FACTS
GAINESVILLE & NORTHWESTERN RAILROAD*
I he ■■ future operation ,. of f tins railroad depends , . the. , ,
on cooperation
of citizens , m communities it serves.
1 his railroad is essentia),to the industrial development of your
cotnmimtnily.
It is also essential to secure and retain the lowest possible trails
poration rates when ail commodities tire considered.
Some citizens favor highway trucks for hauling the high revenue,
producing commodities and rely on the railroad to haul their low
revenue, producing commodities.
If highway trucks continue to skim I lie cream off the traffic avail
able to this railroad we do not believa it; will be possible to continue to
■jpernts much longer.
Without railroad laciptfes the average cost of handling alt com
modities will materiolly increase.
Cit izens must either bear this increased cost or stop product ing
•ontmodities that are now hauled by the railroad on Sow freight rates.
This rati toad spends large sums for wages and supplies in your
loinmuuily and pay a substantial part of your taxes.
We urge ail citizens to help save this railroad by giving us ail
their l.ui'iness.

Concerning the winning entrants,
State College officials found the following
interesting facts:
During the contest, all made a sub¬
stantial salery for themselves— over
and above a return of 6% on their fixed
investment, plus an 8% return on their
working capital—cash, farm machinery,
live stock and other operating necessities.
These salaries—over all expenses—
ranged from $1,500 to $5,600, depending
on the size of the farm.
All owned their own farms. All were
small farms, from 105 to 400 acres. A8
owned live stock, ranging in value from
$1,000 to $3,100. AH sold live stock prod¬
ucts. All had cash crops for sale. All had
good yields compared to the state aver¬
age. All had good labor and income dis¬
tribution. All had good reserves to tide
them over into this year.
In every case there was an increase
in inventory during the year—ranging
from $658 to $2,916.
Every contestant followed the live*
at-home plan of farming.
