PROJECT NEAR COMPLETION
Plans For Building Two
More Developments
Announced
The Nantahala Power and
Light company's Cedar Cliff
hydro-electric development in
Jackson county should be in op
eration by July, officials of the
company, which has home of
fices in Franklin, said this week.
In discussing expansion of
the company's holdings, they
also announced plans for the
construction of two new hydro
electric developments In Jack
son, both on the east fork of
the Tuckaseegee river.
Construction already has be
gun on one, the Bear Creek
project, and it should be com
pleted by June, 1953, it was
said. The project will include
an earth and rock-fill dam
approximately 210 feet high,
with a 1,460 foot tunnel carry
ing water to the power house.
The dam Is situated about two
miles above the Cedar Cliff de- I
velopment.
The other will be known as !
the Tennessee Creek develop- 1
ment and will include two earth i
and rock-fill dams, 5,200 feet j
of tunnel, and a power house. j
One dam will be constructed
across the east fork of the
Tuckaseegee, the other across
Wolf creek. According to offic
ials, the two reservoirs formed
by the dams will be intercon
nected by a tunnel with a tap
tunnel extending to the power
house, which will be situated
just above the confluence of the
creek and the river. Prelimin
ary plans call for the comple
tion of this project by Decem
ber, 1953.
The two new projects will
bring to five the number of
power projects undertaken in
Jackson by the power company
since 1941. The addition of the
two will increase the total pro
duction facilities by approxi
mately 25,000 horse power, it
j was pointed out.
During the past few years the
farm people of North Carolina
have spent at least $36,000,000
annually for health purposes.
Studies have shown that the
average pound of meat consum
ed in the United States has
traveled about 1,000 miles from
the point of production.
These Foods
To Be Plentiful In Month
Of May
Southern plentiful foods can
help provide appetizing, attrac
tive, and economical May men
us, says Mrs. Florence S. Sher
rill, county home demonstration
agent.
Featured items on the U. S.
Department of Agriculture's
plentiful foods list for the
month include eggs, oranges,
broilers, and fryers.
High level egg production is
keeping eggs one of the most
plentiful and economical foods
on retail markets. Cold storage
holdings of shell eggs the first
of April were up to 1.6 million
cases, largest holdings for that
date since 1946. Broiler market
ings should run about a fourth
larger than last May, and Flor
ida and California will market
volume supplies of Valencia
oranges during the month.
Cabbage should be a good
fresh vegetable buy in May,
Mrs. Sherrill said, since South
Georgia, Alabama, Virginia,
South Carolina, and Mississippi
will all market cabbage during
the month.
Varied and nutritious menus
can be planned around other
foods in the plentiful list, too,
she pointed out. These include
fish, peanut butter, processed
citrus products, grapefruit, dried
prunes and raisins, dairy pro
| ducts, cooking fats and oils,
snap beans and pecans.

We can't do much about peo
