Big Georgia Power Concern Will
Spend Millions in Improvements
Work Will Be Resumed ON TugaIO Dam Stopped
During the War-TO Employ 200 Men.

The Tugaloo development will in
crease the present water power capa-
city of the Georgia Railway and Pow
er Company approximately 43 per
cent, a long stride toward putting
the water power future of Georgia
on solid basis.
In addition to the econmoic value
of providing employment for a large
number of men and in stimulating
business through purchases of sup
plies, machinery and the like, the de-
velopment will have a very direct
bearing not only upon Georgia but
upon the entire Southeast.
Five States Are Connected
Only a few weeks ago, Mr.. Atkinl
son witnessed the actual completion
of his plans for inter-connections of
all power systems in the territory
which, through physical connections
that have actually been made, furnish
q network of high tension lines con-
Meeting not only all of Georgia, but
the States of Alabama, North Caro-
lima, Tennessee, and South Carolina
as well.
The result is that in a crisis arising
from a shortage of power the tremen-
dous resources of the Georgia Rail
way and Power Company's power
houses will be at the command, not
only of all Georgia, but four other
states as well. Thus, in crisis in
Georgia or any other of the five sta
ties, the Georgia company. will be able
, to step in with power and in turn. the
other companies, through the inter
connecting systems, will be enabled
to divert power into Atlanta in the
event it should be needed.
! OF further interest to Atlanta and
the fly other municipalities served
by the Georgia Railway and Power
Company will be the announcement
also made here today, that changes
will be made at Morgan Falls, the
Bull Sluce hydo-electric plant near
Atlanta. which will increase the capa,
lefty of this pant from $4,000 horse
power to $1,000 horse power. an in
crease of approximately 1000 horse
power.
Active construction work on the Tu
galoo development was begun in 10
) III but was. stopped on account o.
; war conditions and losses sustained
: by the Georgia Railway and Powe,
Company.

Atlanta, Ca, January 4, 1922
Another step will be taken imme-
diately toward the completion of the
biggest development the State of
Georgia has ever known, according
to announcement made here today
by the Georgia Railway and Power
Company.
Beginning at once, work will be
resumed on the Tugaloo dam and
power house, the fourth mammoth
step in the plans of H. M. Atkinson,
chairman of the board of directors
OF the Georgia Railway and Power
Company, for the complete hydo-
electric development of the Tallulah
and Tugaloo rivers.
The completion of this company's
development plans on these two riv-
ers will represent an investment of
around $40,000,000 attracted to
Georgia through the efforts of Mr..
Atkinson. The developments already
made-the gigantic Burton storage
resivor and dam, the Mathis or Lake
mont resivor and dam, the .Tallulah
dam and the Tallulah power house
and high tension hnes-are valued
at $21, 100000. The completion of
Tugaloo will add upwards of $4,000
600 to this. Later on Mr.. Atkinson,
it was stated here today, hopes to
complete the other links in the great
chain-the Burton power house, the
Seed storage resivor and power plant
and the Mathis allulah" power
house.
One Thousand Men Employed
The Tugaloo development will pro-
vide employment for upwards of one
thousand men for year and half
or longer. Already about 200 men
are on the scene of the development
ready to begin work. This number
will be augmented week after week,
as the construction progresses and
more men are needed, until, it is es-
tinlated, by the latter part of June
more than 1000 men will be employ
ed. l.t
1t is expected that the first unit
of the Tugaloo development will be
in service in the early fall of 1928
and that the entire capacity of the
sation will be available by January
1, 1924. Pouring of concrete in the
dam will begin in June, at which timC
it is expected that dedication cere
monies will take place.

plant, and that he has paid the fee
ana is thereby member of the asso.
citation. For this fee the association
proposes to give full instructions to
lts members how to cure, grade and
ship the potatoes and to find mar.
ket for same.
When sufficient counties have been
organized and acreage pledged-say
100000 or 100000 acres, this will
give the association a fund to adver-
Use and demonstrate to the people
unacquainted with the potato its
great food value. The fund should
be sufficient to send representatives
to ten or twelve of the largest cities
of the North and East to push the
sale of the Georgia potato. The best
plan for advertising will be decided
upon by the directors.
Much has been written and many
suggestions made as to some means
Iot relieving the situation brought
about by the destruction of the cot
ton crop by the boil weevil. 1t is
my opinion that the sweet potato
properly handled will be more prof
liable than cotton ever was.
! believe that with proper effort
we can sell half of the potatoes rails
ed green during July, August and
September and October We can
then store the balance of the crop
and sell as the demand arises.
don't think that curing houses
will cost as much as many people
think. There are now on most
farms sufficient houses that could be
converted into curing houses at
small cost. There are in most small
towns and cities cotton warehouses
and store buildings that could be con-
verified into curing houses at half
the cost of new buildings. All that
is necessary for a curing house is
for it to be practically air tight with
proper ventilation.
With this organization perfected
| feel certain that the banks and bust
ness men of the different counties
would furnish to the farmers suffici-
ent funds to buy seed potatoes or
slips and fertilizer to make the crop.
Whether anything results from
these suggestions or not, the potato
industry is coming and will be the
principal money crop of the South.
South Carolina and Alabama have
already organized to push the produc-
ton and the sale Of the potato.
Why not Georgia?
It it the intention of the friends
Of this movement to call a meeting
in Atlanta early in January for the
urpose Of organization.
Would be pleased to hear from any
and every one interested.

The South's Big Opportunity

alLl Bostwick. Ca, Jan. 2, 1922.
Dear Editor:
In the December 3rd issue of the
Country Gentleman, the eldest agri-
cultural journal in the world, appear
ed an article with the above caption.
This article begins with the story of
a lieutenant in the National army of
Iowa who was sent to a camp in
Georgia, and became acquainted
with the sweet potato. Thereafter
the ration list never contained it Of
ten enough for him.
When the war ended he resolved
to have all the vans he wanted, and
to give his fellow Iowans a treat. AS
result of his activity, thirty cars of
potatoes were shipped to his town
last year.
This article stated that not more
than one-fourth of the population of
the United States ever saw South
ern sweet potato, and only 5,0O0,-
COO bushels of the 1913, zoo, 900 bush
els produced in the South last year
were shipped outside. Why? There
are three reasons-Lack of organiza-
ton, lack of proper marketing prep
Grafton. and the slowness of the far
mers to realize the great commercial
possibilities of the Southern sweet
potato.
/ stated in my previous article on
the subject that our Georgia soil will
produce eight times as many bushels
of potatoes as it will corn, and that
potatoes are selling today, and no
doubt will sell for a long time, for
more per bushel than corn
We can also raise about fifteen
times, as many bushels of potatoes as
We can wheat, and potatoes are sell
ing now in Chicago for more per
bushel than wheat.
Now, why not raise potatoes ex-
tensively as a money crop?
Most farmers will answer this
question in this language: ooh, we
can raise potatoes all right, but we
can't sell them. If we plant many
potatoes, we can't give them away"
say we can sell these potatoes at
a profitable price.
How? By organizing the Sweet
Potato Growers Association of Geor-
gia, with a president, a secretary,
treasurer and a board of directors;
procure charter to make the acts
Of the association legal and binding.
organize as many counties by repre-
sentatives of the association as the
directors deem advisable, by secur-

plant certain acreage in potatoes,

every acre agreed to be planted,
