.SPARR MILLING {
GINNING COMPANY
Another Excellent Home Enterprise
Started in Marion County
Town

The bumper corn crop of the past
few years in Marion county has put
business people to thinking of the
vast possibilities and also the proba-
bilities in the grinding of corn for the
market.
The latest concern to enter actively
IN the milling business is 4 new com
pany just formed at Sparr under the
above name, and Mr.. F. Z. Grantham.
one Of the members of the firm is in
the city today to close deal for a 15-
horsepower oil engine and grist mill,
which they will erect at once. The
Sparr Milling and Ginning company is
composed of Messrs. F. L. Grantham,
A. ]. Stevens and D. o. Riker.
The company expects by next fall
to have in operation several gins at
its Sparr plant. Whether they win
be for long or short staple cotton de-
pends upon which one the farmers
throughout the county devote their
to.
The gentlemen composing the COM
pany are all business men of known
ability and the fact that they have
branched forth in this line further
demonstrates that they mean to keep
right up with the procession as Mar
ion county farming advances each
season. Present prospects are that
tho the corn crop this year has been
a large one, next years crop will be
far in excess of it. The same also ap-
plies to the cotton acreage in every
section Of the county.
