Clemaon College, Dec. 16.?Tho auo> Ssnful marketing of sweat potatoes depends on several facto?*, one of the more Important of which le the growing in marketable quantities. By this wo mean that we should not grow small lots, depending too much on our home markets, all of which are located in a sweet potato section and are being supplied at digging time from the curb. If we have less than a carload of sweet potatoes and aro able to get a good price tor these on our local market, wo should consider ourselves very fortunate and at the lume tlino think of this as an accident. The above applies to the markets at harvesting time rather than during the winter months, when one third of the sweet potatoes grown have decayed from lack of suitable storage facilities. Oftentimes the Division of Klarkets of the Clemson College Extension Service Is asked to find a market for 76 or 100 bushels of sweet potatoes near some glutted market but some distance from an open market. It bocoraes an expensive proposition to ship these potatoes, and handling and exposure givon them whon sent in local lots by froight make their movement by freight Impossible. But from tho same point it may be a very easy task to move two or more carloads of sweet potatoes to some large market center or coal mining or milling center. When all said, it la not the quantity to bo markt^ed that should receive the greater part of our attention (though wo should focus our eyes on quantity for a time), because when wo begin growing for markets other than our curb mnrketa we must necossarlly give more attention to the handling and grading of our sweet potatoes. A consignment of sweet potatoes that reaches its market destination showing signs of bad handling never commands the top market price. On tho other hand, potatoes carefully handled will always receive n v fiflU ft* ilvof will ? J W..V wv |/> avv^o vtiav n lit IHUI n than pay (or the extra time and labor expended In careful handling. Thin handling process begins at harvesting tlmo and ends when the potatoes reach the consumer. Through careless handling and storing of awoet potatoes we have been losing from 60 to 70 per cent of the Drop grown each year. The crop Is now becoming of commercial importance and will be extensively cultivated in the sections of the state Invaded by the Mexican boll weevil; and all who Intend to grow Hweet potatoes for the market should build sufficient storage htJuses and provide l?e bast means of handling this now Important crop for market. "While the production of the sweot potato has inoreused during tho past few years, many new markets have opened up and thousands of people ore becoming beTTer acquainted with the southern grown swoet potato. No limit as to market has beon reached yet and at this time a number of sweet potato dealers and fruit and vegetable marketing associations are doing much to advertise the south ern sweot potato and increase the consumption of this product. Tho crop la of a perlsliahlo nature, as atatod above, If not handled properly, and only recontly has It been given the proper handling which enables it to he thrown on distant markets. Thla atory is told of the first carload of Nancy Mall sweet potatoes that reached Columbus, Ohio, about four years ago through mistake: A certain dealer in that city had been handling a dry, mealy swoet potato frown In a colder section of the country, not as well adapted as this section to the growing of the sweet potato, and through a commission firm In the East they had asked for a car of these dry sweet potatoes. The commission house instead, by mistake, sent a carload of the rich flavored, Juicy Nancy Hall variety from Georgia. When the denier discovered that he hud the wrong variety of potatoes he Immediately said. "Well, we will have to sell these at 75 cents less on tho bushel and take a loss." "No," said a southern friend, "sell them at 75 cents more per bushel, for they are worth more, and don't fail to ad vortise them." None loss to say this carload went at that price and, In the words ol the dealers thcro, "They are still go ing." This crop iu the past has been an easy one to produce. and naturally w?? hnvH bscoine negligent and have said to those In charge, "Sell the surplus If yen can. If you can't, feed them to the hoRs." We now know, however, there an other crops worth nroro for hog feed and less expensive to grow, and w< must turn our faces towards a mar ket. Our policy should simply b? this: those of us who expect to grow a wee i potatoes in tire hnll r< vi, Bec'iim of the state should study m r kr is, market preferences, market ?1< mauds, periods of greatest demand nt'turi' yiujioi runumoin, |u w|> erly, provide suitable storage for j ourloa/l or more (the most oconomica method of handling and marketing this orop >and work with the marko agent* ?'ad their Asslntants for noth fng loss than tho market price In any open market.

I HIGHER NAVY PAY VOTED BY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES | A liill passed by the House of Representatives by a vote of Ml to 10' provides for an increase of approxi-j inately one-third in the base pay of all enlisted men in the navy and the , coast guard, except recruits. The proposed increase, would la* retroactive to Jan. i una wouid continue until July 1, 11)21. The bill provides no increase for officers, the explanation of this fact being that it is desired to hurry pay relief for the enlisted men who, it is y said, are leaving the navy "at an alarming rate."
