MEDITATION
"Pra>er should be the key of the day and the lock of the
night.
Prayer is the door of heaven's treasure-house, and faith
the key which will unlock it.
Prayer is the ladder between heaven and earth.
Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance: it is laying
hold of llis highest willingness."
Permanent Pastures
Farmers of Cherokee county what is your
pasture worth? ? Pastures have a dollar and
cents value like any cash crcp such as cotton,
corn or tobacco ? and especially so at the pres
ent time with the high feed prices. Good pas
tures provide large amounts of feed for live
stock. Assistance in establishing permanent
pastures or reseeding worn-out pastures may be
obtained through the Cherokee county AAA
program. Farmers who have been unable to
carry out practices listed cn their farm plans
last spring and would like to switch to pasture
seeding should get in touch with the Cherokee
county AAA office immediately.

Near Record Milk
Supply Available
For County Diets
Cherokee County residents will
consume more than 4,700.000 quarts
of milk and milk products this year
in maintaining the county's high
nutritional standards, it is predict
ed by the nation's leading distribu
tor of dairy products.
"With a near record supply of
milk coming from the nation's
dairy farms, consumption of dairy
products this year wil nearly equal
that of 1945 when more than 60.
000.000,000 quarts were consumed."
said CI W Diehl. head of A &. P
Food Stores' national dairy depart
ment. "A 22 per cent increase in
per capita consumption of milk
during the war years helped over
come the loss of nutrition caused
by curtailed supplies of fats and
oils and helped bring about the
nation's high nutritional wartime
levels."
An increased supply of most
cheese products is now available in
many sections of the country and
other milk products are expected !
to be adequate during the fall and
winter months. Diehl said. These
products contain nearly 14 per
cent of the calories. 24 per cent of
the proteins. 18 per cent of the
futs. 74 per cent of the calcium
and 45 per cent of the riboflavin
consumed by the average individ
ual.
The pioneering efforts of food
chains in developing a streamlined
distribution system. Diehl said,
have made possible . the quick
movement of milk and milk pro
ducts from dairy centers to dense
1 v populated consumer areas. Mod
ern refrigeration equipment and
improved handling methods were

IS YOUR LIVEf
CRYING FOR HELP
because of constipation or faulty di
gestion? If you feel bilious, sour,
bloated with gas, headachy, blue,
grouchy, you may be putting too big
a burden on your liver. Retained un
digested food becomes putrefactive,
causes toxins, which overload tho
liver, keeping it from working prop
erly. Then is the time to relieve your
tired liver by letting Calotabs help
nature sweep the putrefactive and
partially digested matter from your
stomach and intestines. Nothing a c s j
just like good old Calotabs. Use as di- f
rected. 10c and 25c at your druggists. |

Man with a 32-track mind
He's moved upstairs . . . this Southern
Railway yardmaster!
Yesterday he ran his legs off in all kinds
of weather trying to be all over his yard at
once. Today he sits in a glass-enclosed, air
conditioned tower sixty feet atoove th? ground
. . . acres of tracks spread out before him.
Through the magic of electronics he gives
orders and instructions to switching crews
and others throughout the yard . . . and the
men can report back to him over this two-way communi
cating system. ..thus speeding the "making up" into trains
of as many as 5,000 freight cars a day.
Progress? You bet!
Always on the alert for new methods . . . never taking
anything for granted . . . we're doing our best to provide
the kind of mass transportation service that is so vital to
the continued growth and prosperity of the South.
Whether it's pioneering with the first Diesel freight
locomotive or building a tower for the "man with a 32
track mind," the Southern Railway is. ..and will continue
to be ... a railway that is always looking for, and finding,
better ways to "Serve the South."
