Brooks County Truck Farming Boosts Prosperity and County Image
In Brooks county the truck farming boom is highlighted as the engine of regional wealth. Reports estimate 600 to 700 melon cars plus substantial cabbage cucumber and potato crops could yield around 1000000 dollars in cash this season. Local leaders tout land health and climate advantages on the pine ridges near Quitman and Thomasville, with railroads urged to expand markets and transport. A dual hotel plan for Quitman is proposed to attract northern visitors, alongside growing interest in a northern winter clientele and regional hunting and fishing attractions.
