. ■ j >i<
Clemson College, April 13.—A good! "j:
example of co-operation between bus! j j
ness men and farmers to promote di
versified agriculture in boll we4vii
territory is found in * recent report j
from • County Agent J. W. McLendon, ; *
of Florence county, wh 0 reports that I
Mr. D. J. Simmons and Mr. C. E. *
Ward have organized the Peoples -1-
Afilling Company of .Timmonsville.
1'his company is installing a big Will 1
lams mill and will grind velvet beans «-.. * * ir wirwit inr
and other feed crops, and is also in- _ •
italling two grist mills and a corn ' ■ ^ —■ — —r-
busker, he company will buy farm
products that can be made into feed
and will pay the fanners cash or ex
change the finished products or grind
Lor toll.
.Mr. Simmons is one ef the largo
farmers and hog breeders in Flor-,
ence county, and Mr. Ward is a re
cent Clemson graduate. They have
associated themselve ' together ot
course to engage in profitable busi
ness, hut it is their intention, says
the county agent, to co-operate with
farmers,_in every means that, will
build up the tunning unterests of
the section. . \
An idea of ho wsuch a business will
iclp the farmers is to be found in the
following instance. A farmer in the
county who had 760 bushels of corn
to sell could not get the labor to
shuck and shell it, so tije 'Peoples’
Milling Company bought the corn and
paid tlie market price, sent their
truck to the farmer's barn and haul
ed it to the mill, thus enabling him
to dispose of his corn, which he hard
ly could have done under other cir
cumstances. •
