THE REASON
IT PAYS.
(*<>n<*(‘rn in the Southern states which does not do an
interstate business, and the pool or combination
agreement between them all forces those of Georgia
to take into consideration not simply the tax of this
State, but of all the States where their commodities ■
are sold. This done, an average is struck and this
is added to the price at which fertilizers may be sold
in Georgia.
Georgia's fertilizer tax of ten cents per ton is
lower than Alabama's by twenty cents, than Arkan
sas'. North and South Carolina's bv fifteen cents, but
the farmers of Georgia do not get much benefit from
it. as the other states' share is so much greater. The
producers' rate in this State is not ten cents, but
twenty-live cents, the average rate 1 where the com
modities are sold. Who gets this additional fifteen
cents paid by the farmers of Georgia? The farmers
of South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama and
Arkansas.
Raise the tax in Georgia to twenty-five cents per
ton and it would bring up the average in the states
mentioned to twenty-six cents, as against twenty-five
cents as at present. This would cause tin 1 other
states, all except Alabama, the loss of their advan
tage over us. It would raise a revenue of over $200,-
000 for our schools, tremendously important schools,
in which the money already invested will be of no
avail unless capital necessary to operate them is pro
vided.
