Friday night 20 or more farmers of the lower section of Fort Mill township met at the home of Lee Armstrong and plans were ' made for the erection in that community of a sweet potato storage house of 2,500 bushel capacity. The building probably will be put up on the farm ' of Sam Armstrong. Practically every farmer who attended the meeting agreed to grow an acre or more of potatoes during the year for storage in the house. Porto Tl! . _ ? - xvico is tne variety to De grown because of its popularity on the markets. The slips are to be ordered through the horticultural division of Clemson college. Much of the credit for working up interes in the enterprise is dub R. M. Smith, teachers of agriculture in the Fort Mill high school. The storage house will be built according to improved plans and will furnish the farmers of lower Fort Mill township facilities for storage of their potatoes for home consumption and enable them to hold their surplus until market conditions are favorable for sales. Whether storage facilities will be provided for others than those who take stock in the building has not yet been decided. The house will be constructed on the principle of a refrigerator, wih dead air spaces between two walls. When the potatoes are brought in from the fields they will be placed in bins and the heat in the house raised to 85 or 90 degrees and remain there for ten days or two weeks while the potatoes are curing. The heat, will then be lowered to 55 or 60 degrees, at which it will be held during the storage period. The heat for the building will be supplied by stoves. The officers of the association to erect the building are: Lee Armstrong, president; Sam Armstrong, manager, and Ladson Massey, secretary and treasurer. Friday night the second meeting of those interested in the construction of the storage house will be held at the home of Lee Armstrong. * Circuit Judge George E.
