Porterfield, one of our Madison county farm customers, believes that it pays to “hold your potato” for a higher price, and that is what he is doing again this year. After last year’s harvest Mr. Porterfield filled his electrically heated curing- and storage house with 800 bushels of sweet potatoes. He sold them three months later when the price had climbed • from $1.50 to $3.50 a bushel. The cost for elec¬ tricity was about two cents a bushel. A Georgia Power Company rural engineer planned the storage nouse at Mr. Porterfield’s request.
