WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, WHEELER COUNTY, GEORGIA
’245,392 Needy Persons
In Georgia Get
USDA Food Aid
U. S. Department of Agricul
ture food programs aided 245,392
needy persons during November
in Georgia counties.
USDA’s Consumer and Market
; ing Service said that 179,063 per
j sons in 81 counties took part in
] its commodity distribution pro-
I gram.
I November’s participation was
up 11,296 persons from the num
ber that took part during Oc
’ tober. This was attributed main-
Ily to a seasonal decline in em
! ployment—especially in agricul
tural areas—and the entrance of
Chatham and Polk counties intol
the food stamp program.
In Georgia, the commodity dis- j
tribution program is administered
by the Georgia Department of I
Education, and the food stamp I
program is administered by the
Georgia Department of Family i
and Children Service, both in co-1
operation with the Consumer!
and Marketing Service.
Commodities distributed during j
November to needy Georgia fam- I
| ilies had an estimated retail value I
of $2 million. These foods in-1
eluded canned chopped meat,;
canned fowl, cheese, dry milk,.
evaporated milk, scrambled egg
mix, instant mashed potatoes,,
lard or other shortening, peanut |
butter, flour, butter or marga-!
rine, dry beans, rolled oats, rice,;
raisins, syrup, juice, grits and
canned vegetables.
। Low-income families taking
part in the food stamp program
; during October exchanged $596,-I
i 378 of their own money for sl,-!
. 025,566 worth of USDA food
stamp coupons. This means thatl
these families received $429,188
worth of free, bonus coupons to
increase their buying power at
local grocery stores.
GEORGIA WOOD
Figures recently released show
that Georgia continued to lead
the nation in the production of
pulpwood in 1967. According to
Extension Service foresters
with the University of Georgia,
over 6.3 million cords of round
pulpwood and residues were pro
■ duced in the state during that
year.
A Georgia Crop Reporting Ser-
Ivice vegetable summary for 1968
shows that the eight principal [
' commercial and two processing'
j crops harvested in the state last I
; year are valued at over sl7 mil-1
lion dollars.

Beneath Delta’s jet rotundas,
beats an all-electric heart.
Delta Airlines’ new Atlanta airport rotundas arc
all-electric terminals for a $500,000,000 fleet of
flying “skyscrapers.”
Some 10,000 travelers pass daily through these
rotundas in the 72-degree comfort of clean, efficient
electric heating/cooling.
They board electrically climate-conditioned aircraft
through electrically operated, air-conditioned jetways.
Their jets are energized by service connectors that
provide ground electricity for heating, cooling,
lighting, food and beverage storage. Even baby-bottle
warming.
Electricity “quick-starts” Delta’s big jets, too. In
140 seconds, electric air compressors can breathe
life into four 18,000-pound-thrust engines.
Our industrial engineers’ planning and advice have
[ i made soaring sunward from Delta’s futuristic
! rotundas an all-electric experience.
And they’ll help your business fly better. Call them.
They'll wing right over and air the facts.
j Georgia Power Company
grateful for every kind word and
your contribution of food and
flowers.
With God’s Blessings,
