Baltimore and Norfolk la the course urfed upon tho boeintos aad agricultural intereetk of South Carbllaa by W. W. Long. State agent of demonstration and di rector of extension of Clemson College. In n letter to the chambers of commerce, bankers and business men of South Carolina. Mr. Long urges prompt action on th4 Fate situation for wheat and oats. Ho writes: ‘It seems to me that the first step to be taken Is to j obtain such local rates within the Bute as will factli 24.86 itate the concentration of grain for Interstate shipment. 24.00; The natural oatlets for our wheat surplus seems to be- Charieston tor coastwise shipments, which would bnvw to be In sacks since there ere no facilities, in Charles ton for handling bulk grain on the piers; Richmond a.v a mill market, and Baltimore and Norfolk for export Jn bulk.** To the chamber of commerce. Mr. Long suggests: 10.5rt would respectfully suggest that you call a meeting 6.Ort Qt your body for the purpose of discussing this sltu- jatlon sod taking definite action. The wisest procedure 15 00 that suggests itself to me is that you petition the State Railroad Commissioner to take up the matter of inter. , state grain rates immediately; further, that your body petition the railroad* directly and. If necessary, the Interstate Commerce Commission at Washington, for the immediate establishment of commodity rates on. grain to the ports, both In sacks and In bul^.** Another side of the small grain problem to which attention is directed is the need’ for having one or more business men In each community nrradge to ban. ':<U« the grain purchased from wagons from farmerr who are- not shipping, but try to dispose of small sur pluses on the local markets. Mr. Long Is opposed to the construction of expen sive grain elevators in South Carolina. aHo says: “I cannot agree (and I think my position will be | sustained by th* Office of Markets at Washington) with those who hsve been advocating the erection of elevators for the handling of grain fn South Carolina, •^'Maryland, northern Virginia, and Pennsylvania grow *' *’ large quantities of grain and the grafb is handled both ^n sacks and in car lots.
