SWEET POTATOES PAY.
Phone 4

Whether II is TO be used as food
for the table, as a feed crop for ami
mails or producer of starch, the sweet
potato is probably one of the most
profitable crops the South Carolina
farmer can grow.
The best method of planting sweet
potatoes is with cuttings from vines.
II slip beds were not set out early
enough this year for plants to be suf-
ficiently large for good vine cuttings at
this time, or If no slips were grown.
1T is advisable to buy cuttings from
neighbor. Planting slips is more ex-
pensive than vine cuttings. Besides.
the fungi which produce rots are less
likely to be carried on a vine cutting
than on slips pulled directly from the
old potatoes. Thus potatoes grown
from vine cuttings will probably be
freer from rot than those grown from
slips.
A fertilizer suggested for sweet po-
tatoes Is 500 pounds KANT, 800 pounds
