Fitzgerald Should Have
Peanut Smelling Plant

Sooner or later someone is going
to put in a PEANUT SMELLING
PLANT in Fitzgerald. 1t is bound to
come simply because it is needed,
and because it is good thing for
Fitzgerald and for the farmers of
Ben Hill county, but is an enterprise
that will prove very profitable to the
man who. is wide awake enough to
recognize this opportunity.
Going into the Smelling business
does not require any great outlay
of money. You do not have to go to
the expense erecting a special build
ing. Almost any warehouse building
can be used. The space occupied will
be so small that you will still have the
greater part of your building left
for storage.
Peanut Smelling machinery has be-
come so thoroughly standardized that
now it is built in Units. A man start
ing in this business usually puts in
only one Unit, and later adds more
Units as conditions justify. These
Units are each composed of num-
Der of highly efficient machines, and
each machine has special duty to
perform. The Peanuts after delivery
to the first machine are carried rap
idly through the different operations
OF cleaning, stoning, Smelling, grading
and picking, and are then discharged
right into the bags ready for ship
ment to the northern market.
The class of work turned out by
one of these Units is more perfect
than that TUNED out by many of the
Older and larger Smelling plants Most
Of these older plants were built and
equipped before modern and up to
date machines now in use were de-
signed. With one of these modern
Smelling units and your supply OF
Peanuts right at your door, you need
i'ot "OliJ oOOut NOlliPStitiOH tOl you
will have such big saving in your
cost of operation and the saving in
freight charges on your raw material
that you will be in a position to COM
pete with the best of them.
With the large crop of peanuts be-
ing grown in this and adjoining coun-
ties, Fitzgerald is the logical place
for a modern Smelling plant. No doubt
the big interests in the Smelling bust
ness already have their eye on Fitz-
gerald. Why not build yours first and
keep out competition? Why not talk
this proposition over with some OF
your friends and put in a plant in
stead of allowing outsiders come in
and build one and carry off all the
profits?
Let us furnish you with blue-prints
and detailed information as to cost,
etc. of one of these shelling units,
also the big profits that are made in
shelling peanuts.
