SPARTAN GRAIN AND MILL CO.
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.
