Martin 1303 Friend St. Phone 74-J Directly Opposite Poet Office Sweet Spud Now Money Maker Clemson.—The quality of sweet potatoes grown in South Caroline, has been improved greatly in recent years, according to J. E. Young blood, Clemson extension marketing agent, who has worked closely with the commercial development of sweet potatoes in the state. Marketing facilities, too, have vastly improved, he points out, and preparing sweet potatoes for mar ket no longer means just putting the good ones into baskets and shipping them off. They are made to look better by washing and even by waxing them in some cases. There are now up-to-date sweet potato packing centers at 12 points in the potato area. Two of these are in Orangeburg, two in Bishop- ville, and one each at Estill, St. George, Branchville, Norway, Hol ly Hill, Eutawville, Timmonsville, and Lake City. Several other points are planning markets in time for the 1947 crop. Thus, what Extension Director D. W. Watkins called one of the state’s “neglected resources” some years ago when the first carloads of improved seed stock were brought in and distributed to growers through local county agents, grows into a substantial money crop. Although there has been vast improvement, Clemson Extension’s Marketing Chief Tom Cole reminds us that the problem with sweet potatoes still is quality. We have too many sorry potatoes and not nearly enough good ones. Clemson bulletins through local county agents tell of the steps towards making better potatoes, and the, Edisto Experiment Station at Black- ville is devoted to potato research. With all of these forces being brought to bear on the crop and with the full cooperation of local growers, this crop appears to have a bright future in South Carolina.
