GROWERS URGED TO SAVE
THE SWEET POTATO CROP

During the last few years the acre
age and production Of the sweet po-
tato crop-one Of the most important
food crops of Louisiana--has been m
creased to such an extent that the
problem of storing and saving the
crop has become of great Importance.
According to specialists of the ex-
tension division of the Louisiana
State University, indications are that
the output of the current year viii
be larger than any previous crop
and they earnestly recommend that
the growers prepare for the conser-
walton of this crop.
The leading sweet potato growing
states, which annually dispose OF
their crops at maximum prices, are
those that make extensive use Of stor-
age houses. Efficient storage IS a
simple mehod whereby the value q
the sweet potato crop may be IN
creased materially without adone
very greatly to the production cost
An improvement in the present meth
eds is particularly desirable in Louis
lana where the crop is either rushed
On the market at digging time, wher
the price is low, or stored in outdoor
pits or banks, where from % to ~
per cent of it decays, while the por
ton that remains sound is not Of COCO
quality.
Plansand detailed drawings O
sweet potato houses may be secured
without cost by writing to the hor
ticultural department, extension d
vision, Louisiana State University

Careful watch should be kept and
