Year and Will Add to Plant.

The Sumter Roller Mills have had
a o successful season and will add
to their plant for another season, so
that they can handle conveniently the
larger amount Of wheat which is ex-
pected another year. The addition of
a Midget Marvel mill with capacity
Of seventy-five barrels a day will in
crease the total capacity to M hun
dred and fifty barrels every twenty
four hours.
The newly. installed self rising -four
plant is now in operation. and this new
system with the changes to be made
before another season will make the
plant one of the best of it's kind in
the State. The mill occupies a con-
venient site, has a good building and
machinery and has made good in
every way. 1t has received wheat
from five or six counties for grinding
and another year will do even a larg-
er business. Wheat seed has been
sold to farmers in adjoining counties
at cost in order to encourage and in
creas production Of this very valu-
able and necessary crop. Mr.. J. w.
