Behind —— Your Bonds Lies the Might of America GEORGIA FOOD CROPS Wherever peaches are eaten, ths Georgia fruit is known but the state boasts other virtues. Long before peas, beans or lettuce have sprouted in northern “truck gardens,” this state has shipped fresh vegetables thousands of miles from its plantations. State markets have been a big aid to the distribution of Georgia food crops. The first, which opened in 1936, handles more than $200,000,000 worth of food and vegetables each year. Vast quantities of cantaloups, tomatoes and watermelons are shipped from other sources. Thus Georgia’s crops create resources to add to the security behind your War Bonds.
