joining counties. We predict that South Georgia wheat will make the
best flour in the world. Just as soon as the South Georgia wheat and
Sumter County wheat is in condition, we want to buy all that we can
and send it back to you in the manufactured product. You can then judge
for yourselves tne excellent quality of your wneat. In the mean time
while we are waiting for your wheat to be marketed, ask your grocer
