Clemson College, March 24. ? South Carolina is now becoming known in the sweet potato markets of the country, and <he Extension Service marketing agents are giving their time and effort toward sending out a garden product and that well packed, ventilated, and loaded for either a short or a long haul. To date this season sixteen cars of sweet potatoes have moved out of this state to Eastern, Northern, and West ern markets. Some of these have gone to points in New York state, re ports F. L. Harkey, Extension mar ket agent. Most of these shipments have made by members of the South Carolina Sweet Potato Association and have been sold bythe Southern States Pro duce Distributors Company, Colum bia, S. C., wh*#h company has signed a sales contract with the Sweet Pota to Association. Potatoes shipped by members of the Association bear the brand "SUGARSPUDS, South Caro lina Sweet Potato Association, main office, Florence, S. C." . The grading and loading of one or more cars at each shipping has been made a demonstration of proper grad ing and loading by an Extension Ser vice market agent, and in several in stances a great saving has been effect ed for the shipper. Sweet potatoes are ir very perish able product and have n^ver received n this state the proper handling to which they are entitled, since they had not been shipped from this state in car lots 'til last season. It is therefore necessary that every shipp er make use of the experiencs and as -M:- Lance offered by the Extension Ser ue of Clemson Co'loge. There Was a Reason.
