You can’t have a market before you have a sufficient volume of the product. And it’s hard to get en ough of the product so long as no visible market exists. So there you are. But we see that riddle being solved at places as we,go about. A good many years ago, H. H. Walters and his boys of St George started buying, grading, washing, waxing, and packing out good sweet potatoes. They operated there under the depot shed. Last year that old depot was tom down. They bought the shed and moved it over the way a piece. And when I was by there in the fall, they were operating under that same old shed, but on a new foundation. They had stored 30,000 bushels of pota toes and sold many. Wth that lo cal market there, the sweet potato industry thrives. County Agent King asured me that this ready market accounts for most of those potatoes being planted. 4 6 4 Boys Ara That Way Our blacksmith at the foot o< the hill was as sturdy as the steel and rugged oak with which he worked.

The condition had been existing about one year and had spread to every joint in his body, and he was suffering something awful. He further stated that he had taken about four hundred - dollars-' worth of drugs which were supposed to relieve this condition, but had received no results. Upon further qestioning by Dr. Hart, it was found that he had suffered with severe headaches prior to the onset of the arthritis. These headaches stopped when the arthritis started. the time. The pain runs from my heart to my backbone and sometimes into my left arm. It has bothered me six years and I can’t work and support my family.
