It is the largest undeveloped water power of any inland river in the United States; it possesses both of the essential attributes for the gener ation of large units of hydro electric power, having both the volume and the tail, as there is more water passing over the Muscle Shoals than there is in the Ohio river. Within a distance of twenty-eight miles between the foot of the shoals at Florence, Ala., and the head of the shoals, near Decatur, Ala., the fall is 140 feet. A large volume of cheap power is the most essential factor to be considered in the location of a plant for the pur pose of making nitrates from the atmosphere. A large majority of the other essential elements that enter into the operation of a nitrate plant for the purpose of making war munitions are in closer proximity to Muscle Shoals than to any other point that can be selected. The cotton fields are all around. The acids used injthe manufacture of war munitions are more largely produced at Birmingham, Ala., today than at any other point in the union. The copper, sulphuric acid, zinc and aluminum are all being pro duced in East Tennessee along the upper tributaries of the Ten nessee river. The transportation facilities .are all that could be desired. The Memphis and Charleston branch of the South ern railway practically parallels Muscle Shoals from Decatur to Florence, furnishing adequate rail transportation facilities for all the eastern and western bus iness. The main line of the Louis ville & Nashville railway system between Cincinati and New Orleans crosses the Tennessee river at Decatur, a few miles above the head ot the shoals. The Florence branch of the Louis ville & Nashville railway system crosses the Tennessee river at Florence, within two miles of the foot of the shoals, furnishing adequate rail transportation both north and south. The Tennessee river, navigable all the year round from Florence, will furnish water transportation to the mouth of the Mississippi river, all downstream. All the claims above referred to are based upon the location at Muscle Shoals only from a mili tary standpoint, or as a war pre paredness measure. Certainly the greatest value that will result from this plant to this country will not be the manufacture of munitions of war, but will be the value of the products of this plant in times of peace. No one thing can do as much for the wealth and prosperity of this nation as doubling, tripling, or even quadrupling, the products of the soil. This can only be done by fertilization. In times of peace the entire output of this plant could be used in the manufacture of highgrade cheap fertilizers. The fact that the great phosphate beds of Middle Tennessee are al most within a stone’s throw of Muscle Shoals gives the plant a value in times of peace that no other location will question or PROSPERITY Mrs. C. C. Davis, has returned home after a weeks visit with her mother, Mrs. E. T. Brock. Misses Sarah, Leona, and Jewell Brock gave Miss Emma Lou Martin a pop call Wednes day and had a rftce time eating watermelons. We all Fountain had a nice time Head the 4th. at Mr. Joe Dollar and Mr. Kim ble Holley spent Wednesday p. m. with their friend Mr. J. H. Brock. Mr. Kimble Holley and Miss Mattie Gause had a pleasant drive to Oak Grove Thursday. Miss Evie Dollar attended preaching at Morris Hill last Sunday. Mr. Jim Dollar was rushing his Ford the Fourth. Mr. David Dollar, and Miss Bertha Dean were at Oak Grove Thursday night and reporta fine time. Hope J. H. Brock, Birma Harrell and Miss Gertrude Dollar did not get wet Sunday. Miss Leona Brock spent Satur day night with her chum, Miss Jewell Brock. William Davis, escorted his girl home Sunday. Misses Mary and Mittie Dollar gave Miss Jewell Brock a pop call Sunday afternoon. Mr. C. C. Davis Carl Brock and Kimble Holly were out driving Saturday. Quiet a crowd of young people visited Miss Jewell Brock last Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Brock' and Ethel Oliver were in Bainbridgj Monday. Miss Leona Brock attended preaching Tuesday night at Sutton’s. cla'.m. Today the phosphate rock from Middle Tennessee is being shipped all over the United States to the different fertilizer plants as raw material to be con verted into the finished fertilizer. When this plant has been com pleted, and is not engaged in the making of war munitions, the entire product will be used in making commercial fertilizer: practically where the raw mateij ial is produced, saving largely the cost of transportation, both of raw material and of the pro duct. With all these elements of value, whether viewed from a war standpoint, ora peace stand point, or a peace standpoint, certainly Muscle Shoals has t’ e right to lay claim for the locatio .
