The potato marketing activity of the Board-Chamber is to be under the direction of H. E. Horton, the new 1 manager of the organization, who will work in close cooperation with the 1 officers of the Potato Association in solving what is probably the most urgent agricultural problem confronting South Carolina at the present ( time. With a sweet potato crop of overj 7,000,000 bushels last year, about 3,500,000 bushels were marketed, less than 50 car loads or approximately 1 30,000 bushels were sold outside of , the State. The task to be undertaken by th Board-Chamber in cooperation with the Potato Association and other agencies, is to first place the State's, crop in a marketable condition, and second, to find an outside market for this year's surplus, which from pros-! ent estimates will greatly exceed that i of last season. ' Preliminary steps of the campaign to fill all of the "curing" houses of the State with uniformly graded sweet potatoes are now under way. As a result,, it is hoped to not only reduce the large wastage of recent < years, hut to provide at least 500,000 j bushels of South Carolina's coming| "money crop" for sale beyond thei borders of the State. While the work of growing the crop and contracting for the filling of the curing houses is going on, plans are to be perfected for marketing the "sweets" produced to the best advantage. A study of this important question discloses the fact that up until the present time practically no concerted effort has been made to enter the Northern market or increase the Southern consumption, as the South has used practically all the "pit," and recently, the "cured" Sweets it produced. Large quantities of sweet potatoes are now marketed in the North from New Jersey, Delaware and the Eastern Shore of Virginia, one company alone selling over 1,000,000 barrels last year. South Car] I olina will have to meet this competition during the fall months, but, with | its delicious, sugary, "Porto Rico I i Sweet" once known, it has nothing to 1 fear and can push its product to the * limit during the months of January, February, March and April. The sweet, potato can, and under thr proposed marketing program of the Board-Chamber, is to be made one of tho important cash crops of South Carolina. o 666 has more imitations than any other Fever Tonic on the market, but no one wants imitations.?adv. o NKW WORK WASHING The heavy rain of Sunday before last /washed .off much of the red clay which had been placed in building up the section of road to Socastoe just this side of the tRed Hill.
