more than a full day off the
normal running time! They ran
right around the clock, stop

But the important fact about
this run was that it proved new
Chevy trucks through and

is a supreme test of every truck

prove their power up high

washouts. Frames and suspen
sions flexed their muscles over
axle-deep ruts and miles of
pounding gravel. "And not a
single truck turned back or
dropped out due to mechanical ?>

WATER. AND man's attempts
to get it, has been in the news
ever since an angry Moses beat
on the rock.
For centuries, the mind of man
has been occupied with finding
enough water for his own daily
needs and the demands of the
business in which he is engaged.
His inventiveness has been chal
lenged ? from the days of the vast
irrigation systems of the Middle
East, until today, when a Unitea
S.ates short of water is lookins
to the last big puddles left the
oceans, and is seek'ng economical
ways of makinr sea water drink
able.
?
WATER, WE often hea:. is a
, big factor in the decisions people
, make about buying property, or
i whers to retire. Yet, John H. C
Perry, realtor in Highlands, says
few people ever ask him about
the water there.
Apparently, strangers coming
into Western North Carolina as
sume that we have plenty of two
things ? scenery and water. If thty
investigated, they'd find they are
only half right. In many towns,
ncludir.g Highlands, we're hurt
ing for water.

IN SYLVA, I asked three dilftr
ent people where the best place
?as to get a good lunch. All three
iirected me to the bus suuou,
i place which normally lias the

I found the people kn? v v hat
hey were talking about. The food
was tastily prepared. The portions
were lumberjacksut d Pound out
.hat the eatery is run by Miv

POULTRY IS the biggest money
:rop in Macon County. Currently,
the poultryman is hurting because
he can't g?t enough for his birds
jr his eggs. I though Macon folks
might be interested in what th ey
re doing down in Chatham Coun
ty, where poultry r their . biggest
Income, too.
The Chatham people, along with
representatives from 12 other coun
ties, asked the government for
some sort of control over broiler
production. What fcu:H. they didn't
specify.
Our Commissioner of Agricul
ture, L. Y. 'Stag* Ballentine, spoke
to a down east poultryman's meet ?
