SOUTH GEORGIA LIVE STOCK
(ThOmaSville Times-EnterpriSe1

(lHOHnaSVllle llmeS-EnterprlSe.)
We will always believe that brownsville
made a serious mistake when it failed to take
up the packing house project and put it through
two years ago. 1t is true that at that time
there were obstacles, but they could have been
Surmounted and every dollar put into the plant
would have been worth ten to the county
indications are that this is the coming live
stock section of the entire country, not of Geor-
ga, but OF the United States, and the strongest
indication of it is the progress of the packing
house industry within the past five years Ar
mour and Swift have bought plants already;
others are planning to build them, and with cap
ltal working in big hunks, lucky indeed is the
town or county within which is located one of
the Institutions
brownsville would probably have been able
to bring millions of dollars worth, of business
to this city with expenditures of only two hun
bred thousand that would have been returned
intact. That's a proposition that is behind US.
1t merely points the way for no more mistakes
of that character Those behind the project
were sure that it would attract some action such
as has. been realized in Moultrie and Triton,
which, has increased business in those towns
wonderfully.
Packing house products are going to be made
hereafter at the producing centerS. South Geor-
gia is that beyond a doubt and it has been
stimulated wonderfully in the past five years.
1t is but the indication of what will be, and
that part of it that fails to take advantage of its
possibilities has just lost that much start.

The Southern Nnrserymens
Highly InUiting Prospect

TLANTA heartily appreciates the DIS
n tinction of having been chosen as
permanent headquarters and conven-
ton city of the Southern Nurserymen's Asso-
citation. The interests represented by this.
great group Of producers are hardly measur-
able in terms of mere money, though in that
respect alone they are highly impressive,
amounting to millions upon millions OF dol
lars It is in the diversity of wealth which
it brings and in the fresh opportunities which
it opens that horticulture means most to the
South. And nowhere in this favored region
are such developments more promising than
in Georgia.
Forty-six varieties of fruit can be pro-
duced in. this State on commercial scale,
ranging from those of the semi-tropics to
the orchards and vineyards of the North.
The Satsuma orange with it's thin skin, brim-
ming juiciness and early maturity bids fair
to make our southern counties one OF the I'M
portant citrus growing centers. Peaches,
wherein Georgia queens it over all her Sis
tiers, are yielding her an annual income OF
upwards of ten million dollars-an amount
which will double and treble when all the
eighteen million trees now planted come into
bearing.
The Georgia apple crop, now amounting to
some four million bushels year, is growing
steadily in volume and in popular favor. OF
this the United States Railroad Administra-
ton says in a recent survey: "In many re-
spects the sections of North Georgia where
the commercial crops are grown resemble
very closely the noted regions of Oregon and
Washington where fruits of widely known
excellence and beauty are produced. The
soil of the (Georgia) lands is rich in the
necessary plant foods, the analysis showing a
high percentage of potash. The general
topography of the country is mountainous,
the lands available for apple culture having
an elevation of from one thousand to twenty
five hundred feet. The long growing season,
bright sunny days and fairly cool nights of
this region adapt it primarily to the culture
of this most important fruit. Georgia has
great advantage in the apple industry mas
much apples can be grown here and de-
hvered to the eastern markets for the cost
Of delivery from the West"
Add the pears, plums, figs, cherries,
melons and berries Of divers kinds to which
this States soil and climate are particularly
congenial, and our annual fruit earnings will
mount far into the millions. This industry
is as yet at its humble beginnings in Georgia
and in the South as whole. When we'll ad-
Vanced it will be truly magnificent in pro-
ductive proportions. And to that advance
ment the Southern Nurserymen's Association
is contributing fnvaluably.

Some three months ago the yield was esti-

rejoicing not only to America, but as we'll to
the war-wrecked lands of Europe that look
thitherward to be saved from starvation
But the intervening season has cut heavily
into our expected surplus. On August the

her, reduced output In China and japan.
according to the latest press advices, rice
production has fallen off to such an extent
that large wheat imports will be necessary,
In these circumstances whatever surplus there
may be in the United States Canadian and
Argentine crops will barely suffice to exc

Plainly, then, wastefulness in wheat prod
