Some folks are saving money today. They are
driving directly to the car for their feed ... to
save delivery, warehouse and handling charges.
They are paying cash ... to save credit charges.
When they call at the dealer’s place of business
he is the one who performs these services and,
of course, he must ask a fair charge for them.
But a much bigger bargain is in store for those
who trade at the Checkerboard car today . . . the
bargain they buy in a ton of Purina Chows!
Perhaps you have already read somewhere of
the survey carried on for 12 months among
thousands of farmers in both United States and
Canada. It reveals that one ton of Purina Chows
earns on the average of $25 more per ton than
other feeds do.
Twenty-five extra dollars . . . that is a bargain!
The day the Checkerboard car arrives in your
town . . . let you be one of those at the car-door!
electric project in the heart of the
Great Smoky Mountains of North
Carolina. How the contractors were
forced to blast ledges along the
sides of the mountains for the right
of way for a railroad to the site
of the dam; how cables, 200 feet
above the river, were thrown across
a gorge so that men as well as
equipment could be swung across
in small cars to the hitherto inac
cessible operations; how a flume had
to be . built to divert the waters
of a creek from the tunnel head
ings and how ingenious machines
were designed so that the lining
and driving of the tunnels could pro
gress at the same time, are all de
picted in the film. Animated graphs
outlined the project plans and the
same type of illustration made clear
to the audience the correct use
of explosives in tunnel work.
This film is the first of a series
of engineering motion pictures re
leased by the du Pont Company to
be shown by the A. S. C. E. and
was well received because of current
interest in all hydroelectric and
public utilities developments.
