NEW YORK, Feb. 9.--Firmer Liverpool
cables and foreign exchange rates led to re-
newed covering in the cotton market at the
opening today and first prices were Is to

ways, but bought on balance, and private
cables said the advance there was due TO a
better spot demand, and increased trade

there appeared to be very little demand,
however, and the market was unsettled late

WAREHOUSESFO
POTATOES PLAN
OF NEW CONCERN

The Planters Products company,
recently organized by strong financial
interests in Atlanta and Montezuma,
will build a chain of sweet potato
storage houses along the line of the
A. B. & A. railroad, between Man
chester and Cordele, on both sides of
Montezuma. It's stockholders have in
mind the double purpose of develop
ing local markets where there are
none thereby conserving valuable
food, at the same time demonstrate
ing the wisdom Of diversifcation, and
to provide a reasonably safe invest
ment.
Sweet potatoes that will grade u.
S. No. i, delivered at warehouses
between October and November Is,
1920, will be purchased for cash, at
the market price then prevailing in
other sweet potato curing house CEN
tiers in south Georgia.
The establishment of these curing
houses will provide an excellent OPP
portunity for farmers to diversity
their crops and fortify themselves
against the boil weevil. 1t means a
local cash market for one Of the most
prolific and the most easily grown
crops produced in the south.
Farmers who have grown sweet
potatoes for the curing houses at
brownsville, Moultrie and Fitzger-
aid during the last several years have
been well pleased with sweet potatoes
as commercial crop. as they are
easily grown and yield heavily when
properly fortified and cultivated.
The Planters Products company
has offered to sign contracts with
farmers of sweet potatoes, which
provides that the farmer will have
the opportunity to dispose of his
crop elsewhere, provided he can Sc
cure a better price than the Planters
Products company agrees to pay.
The contract also provides for crates
without cost, if returned filled with
potatoes, and sweet potato plants
will be furnished at very low price
for all who may order them.
Only the Porto Rico variety of po-
tatoes are wanted.
The sweet potato industry is de-
veloping rapidly in Georgia since the
establishment of curing houses. Here
tofore heavy losses have been suf-
fered by farmers storing their po-
tatoes in banks and pits.

ly horticulturist of the Georgia State
