The Daily Dispatch: June 13, 1861., [Electronic resource], Cheroker Georgia can bread the Army (search)
Cheroker Georgia can bread the Army --Look at These Figures.--Floyd county will make a surplus of 200,000 bushels of wheat; Cass, Gordon, Whitfield and Murray will average a like amount, making 1,200,000 bushels.--One bushel of wheat will make forty pounds of flour, which will feed him twelve months, and by the rule of three 1,200,000 bushels will feed 100,000 troops for one year. If six counties in Cherokee Georgia can, from her surplus grain, supply our army with bread, we inquire, can we not find six counties of Tennessee that will supply the pork? We have no doubt of it. We can fight and feed, and with the spirit of our Floyd county farmers, it makes no difference whether their wheat brings fifty cents or fifty dollars a bushel; it's all for the boys, anyhow.--Roms Southerner.
