SEED SWEET POTATOES
Now is the time to figure
on your seed sweet potatoes
for next year. Very few of
the sweet potato patches of
this county are free from dis
ease. Both black rot and
stem rot are scattered over
most parts of the county and
many farmers do not know
the two diseases wheji they
see them. If ^u are not ab
solutely sure that your pota
toes are free from both, go
into your patch and get cut
tings from healthy plants and
set them out on ground that
has never been in sweet pota
toes before, or if such cannot
be found, on ground that has
not been in sweet potatoes for
the last four or five years.
Save your seed from this
patch, keep them from com
ing in contact with diseased
potatoes while in storage and
you will have disease-free seed
for next year. If present
plans work out next year will
see several cooperative sweet
potato storage houses in the
county and it will be the farm
er who puts good potatoes in
storage who will realize a
good profit on them. You
cannot expect to make any
thing out of your potatoes if
they rot while in storage, and
they will rot in storage if they
are diseased when you put
them in the house. A little
time spent in this way now
will mean good seed for next
year; good seed for next year
will mean good potatoes to
put in storage, and good po
tatoes stored properly will
mean money to you during the
winter. Don’t fail to take this
precaution.

another car of hogs on the
cooperative plan Saturday,
July 9. There is still room for
aJbout 15 hogs in the car.
Bring yours in early and bring
feed for about two days.
If you are planning to build
any kind of farm buildings
this summer, consult the coun
ty agent about the plans. The
United States Department of
Agriculture has plans for
barns, silos, chicken houses,
hog houses, sweet potato stor
age houses, and many other
kinds that are free for the
asking. Make use of this in
formation.
It is about time to plan for
the fall garden especially the
fall potato patch. These
things will come in mighty
handy for fall use.
Hog Cholera has been re
ported in two or three more
sections of the county. If
yours have not already been
immunized it is time to have
the work done now. Do not
wait until it gets in your herd.
The county agent will be glad
to help you with this work at
any time.
The following is an extract
from a news item in the Ga
zette of June 27: “Strawber
ry growers in the vicinity of
McRae the past season netted
$322,544 from their crops.
One grower netted $2,420.33
from three acres.”
Is the climate of Indepen
dence County so different
from that of White County
that we cannot accomplish
the same results here? With
a soil that is as well, if not
better, adapted to the growing
of strawberries than that of
White County, it seems that
the farmers of Independence
County are asleep on the job.
Are we going to sit back and
admit by our inaction that the
farmers of the adjoining coun
ty have more “get up and go”
in them than we have? Have
you an acre of land on your
farm that is netting you more
than $800.00 per year? Don’t
you think that it is about time
for us to get in behind the
strawberry industry in this
county and push it to the
front? Men here have made
good money out of this crop
and could make more if there
were enough grown to justify
an association that could con
duct its business in a business
like way. Think this over,
talk it over with your wife
and your neighbor and then
increase your acreage next
year.
