SWEET POTATO sToREHOUsE

In building a sweet potato store
house, remember three things-the
potatoes must be kept dry so that bac-
terra and fungi cannot attack them
they must be kept warm, so they will
not freeze, and they must be kept ven
tilated. A sweet potato warehouse
capable of holding $500 bushels can
be built for about $500. It will save
$500 worth OF potatoes each year.
