The article notes higher coal and gasoline prices driving up operating costs while freight receipts lag due to a drop in cotton shipments. It cites Central of Georgia earnings down from last year despite naval stores and lumber gains, and details railroads pushing for rate increases, pending a decision by the Railroad Commission. Labor costs and taxes compound the pressure, with forecasts of continued disputes into next year.

Cotton crop prospects and farm diversification urged
The article notes cotton prices justify expected large next year acreage, but forecasts a short current crop and warns fertilizer prices may cut net profits. It cites Augusta Herald on Judge Emory Speer’s eloquent Macon public library appeal and mentions a notorious moonshiner’s case tied to a Marsal investigation.
