Columbia uses more milk than any /,
other. town of the same size in the
state" says A. H. Shepard, president
and manager of the White Eagle
Dairy Company Government reports
show that the per capita consumption
of milk and milk products is greater
in Columbia than in any other town
or CITY in the South. For this reason
the dairy industry and manufacture OF
dairy products is a paying investment
in Columbia.
The White Eagle Dairy has a ca
pacity of 200 pounds of butter and
300 gallons of ice cream day. They
retail 300 gallons of milk and cream
each day. Nine men are employed
in the creamery and five wagons are
used in supplying the retail trade.
They ship some of their products to out
side towns, but most of their trade
| is in Columbia. Five hundred COWS
are used to furnish the milk for these
products. All the milk is tuberculine
tested. although this is not required
by the state law.
Light.
The City Water and Light Com
pany, owned by the city since 1914,
supplies the town with water and
electric lights. 1t also furnishes elec-
tric power. Bonds for s125, 900 have
already been voted and new plant
will be erected. Gas for lighting and
heating is furnished by the Columbia
Gas Company.

in the wall paper and paint business

the market this week. They are. eX-
perimenting with the new machinery

plated will be used, instead OF the
gold point. The fountain pens Will re-
tail at twenty-five dents.

when we used onlX imported tobacco

To Danish Night-Made
Wrinkles in Morning
Susie Prim in Tow. Talk

When one gets up in the morning after
d troublesome, slcepless night, haggard
and worn, with the teil-tale lines and
wrinkles and dark circles under the eyes,
here's the thing to quickly make her nor
NAL looking and presentable. Let her
oathe her face in solution made by dis
solving an ounce Of saxolte in hall pint
oi witch hazel. Immediately there is
wonderful transformation. One effect is
to tighten the skin and obliterate the
wrinkles and lines, likewise puffiness un-
der the eyes, etc. The face looks-and
ieels-bright ard refreshed, as though in
somnia's victim had just awakened from
a beauty sleep.
1t is a good idea to have a little saxo-
lite and witch hazel on hand for emcr-
gcncy use, the ingredients, which any
druggist can supply, being inexpensive
and entirely harmless.
