Alabama Cattlemen’s Association

The late 1930’s brought about the existence of an organization known as the Alabama Livestock Growers Association (ALGA), formed to protect the cattle industry in Alabama. ALGA had become largely inactive by 1943, and it was then that Tennessee Coal, Iron, and Railway Company (T.C.I.) Agent Luther Fuller contacted ALGA President U.C. Jenkins and Secretary K.G. Baker about reorganizing the organization into a “working” cattlemen’s association for the benefit of all cattlemen in Alabama.
