BUYS FLOUR MILL HERE The Spartan Grain and Mill com-- pany, one of the oldest milling con cerns in South Carolina, has pur chased the flour mill formerly own ed and operated by the Farmers Oil Mill, according to an announcement by the. new owners. Under new management, the plant will be modernized, it was announc ed, for the manufacture of improved quality flour and better service to grain farmers. Impovements will include storage facilities for 50,000 bushels of grain. This storage space will be available without cost to wheat growers, provided their wheat is exchanged for Spartan flour, the announcement said. New equipment, which will .ma terially improve flour quality will be installed immediately. Farmers of this section can depend upon get ting the same high grade, guaran teed flour in exchange for their wheat as that sold by the best fancy grocers, the new owners pointed out. In order that service will not be interrupted a large supply of Spar tan flour, Skyland, plain and Bis cuit King, self rising, and Spartan Mill Feed will be on hand to ex change for wheat during the period required to make necessary mechani cal improvements. Another feature of the remodeled mill will be the fast handling ser vice. New equipment will be install ed to receive wheat as fast as it can be unloaded from farmer’s trucks and other vehicles. Flour will be ready for immediate delivery, thus avoiding all unnecessary delay. For more than a quarter of a cen tury, the Spartan Grain and Mill company has been performing a complete milling service ffor farmers of the Piedmont section, including the manufacture of high grade poul try, dairy, hog, stock and dog feeds, as well as quality flour corn meal and grits. This concern is one of the largest and oldest feed and rtour manufacturers in the South. Spartan products are distributed through dealers from South Virginia to lower Florida, and bear a very high reputation for quality. This new flour unit will enable the Spartan Grain and Mill com pany to serve farmers of this sec tion better than ever before. Spar tan operates mills at Spartanburg and Landrum, a nd maintains bran ches at Saluda, and Jacksonville, Florida. Further announcement will be made just as soon as improvements have been completed.
