SOAP COMPANY NOW
HAS LARGE CAPACITY
NEW MACHINERY INSTALLED
ENABLES POWDER TO BE
MANUFACTURED IN SHORT
ORDER.
The installation of new and mod
ern machinery now enables the
Georgia Soap Company, manufac
turers of Sunshine Soap Powder, to
turn out this product in large quan
tities. At a demonstration given at
the plant Wednesday afternoon of
the past week a total of 2,500
pounds of the powder was made in
just twenty-one minutes. A number
of business men of Jackson were
invited down to witness this demon
stration in soap making. The ope
ration was one of much interest and
all who witnessed the demonstration
gathered a better idea of how the
washing powder is made.
Other machinery, includiag a
grinder and device for filling cartons,
will be installed within the near fu
ture. It is also likely that another
mixer will be put in, thus doubling
the capacity of the present plant.
.When this is done the company urll
be able to take care of large orders
in a short time.
Mi\ Diffie, manager of the plant,
enthusiastic over the new plant
;ently established in Jackson, and
he is convinced that he has a pro-
duct as good or better than any
manufactured in the country. An
extensive advertising campaign wfll
be put on a little later and jobbers j
throughout the country will be ac-,
quainted with the merits of Sun- j
shine Soap Powder. It is hoped j
finally to extend the business over |
several states and make the poviler i
familiar to every home. Users of
the product declare it possesses a •
high order or merit and it now re
mains to push the powder vigorously
and build up a sale for a home pro
duct.
It is the purpose of the officers
and directors of the soap company
to carry on a campaign to induce
people to use this Jackson product,
and thereby keep thier money at
home. Thousands of dollars are sent
awav from home every year for soap
powders made in other states, and if
this money is kept at home all will
be benefited by the circulation Ol
this money in home channels. i>
the business is developed along the
lines now planned it will mean a
great industry for Butts count>.
It is announced by officials of the
company that Sunshine Soap Powder
will soon be put up in 5 cent pack
ages, which it is believed will be a
popular seller in this section.

THE. JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS. JACKSON, GEORGIA
WAS LUCKY FOR
DENNIS HE SAYS
CHATTANOOGA MAN STATES
TANLAC OVERCOME HIS
TROUBLES —CAN’T SAY TOO
MUCH FOR IT.
W. F. Dennis, 203 Lyerly St.,
Chattanooga, Tenn., formerly of Mo
bile, Ala., make an interesting state
ment regarding Tanlac.
“It certainly was lucky for me,”
said Mr. Dennis, “that I got hold of
Tanlac when I did, for I was' just
about down and out.” Off and on
for three years I have been down
with malaria. For ten months on
one occasion I was co'nfined to the
house most of the time.
“As I usually spent my winters in
Chattanooga, I came back here last
September to spend the rest of my
life with my daughter. When I ar
rived here I was in a very weakened
condition, for the malaria vms fast
getting the best of me.
“I had no appetite, felt weak and
tired all the time and had pains in
my stomach that were completely
upsetting my nerves, I contracted
a cough along with other complica
tion, slept very little and got up
mornings nearly exhausted. In fact
I was just about “all in” and kept
getting worse.
“Five weeks ago I got Tanlac and
my appetite picked up with my first
half bottle. Soon I was able to
sleep all night and felt like anew
man. I eat any kind of food set be
fore me and enjoy it. I have gained
several pounds in weight and feel
better than I have in five or six
years. Tanlac has saved me money
and given me health, too, and I
can’t say too much for it.”
Tanlac is sold in Jackson by Car

taking Doan’s Kidney Pills a few
years ago. I was in svrmming and it
seemed I wrenched my back. From
that time on, my back and kidneys
were very weak. I couldn’t do the
least lifting as it would effect my
kidneys and I would have headaches

would come over me, tco, and specks
would dance before my eyes, and

was in pretty bad shape.- A friend
