15p!p the South has
economic health
CJOUND prosperity arises only from the prosperity
U of many different types of industry. Sections
of the country that are dependent upon one business
or one crop sometimes havte extraordinary prosper
ity; and they also have hard times. But it is those
sections where production is diversified that have
real economic health. y
J The present prosperity of the South springs from
many different sources. This is seen from the record
of freight carried by the Southern. Last year this
r* total wealth o/ths South hu traffic was made up as follows: Pmr „. of ■<*.,
cent tines 1900 tonntfe htn4ld
Products of agriculture and animals 10.65
Coal 23.90
Clay, gravel, sand and stone 10.22
Other mine products and minerals 3.62
Forest products 16.80
Manufactured products and miscellaneous goods 24.03
Merchandise in less than carload shipments 5.78
Just as the diversification of Southern industry has
brought the South economic health, so also the di
versification of the Southern’s traffic should tend to
stabilize its revenues and make its securities attrac
tive to investors in the South.

ever form of entertainment appeals
to them most. And at harvest time
it is particularly helpful to be able
to get the daily weather forecast if
heavy rains are approaching.
And so it goes through a long list
of helpful things that come to the
farm home through the radio. The
State College of Agriculture recog
nizes this as a very practical method
of reaching many thousands of peo
ple. They have mapped out a radio
program for this summer and repre
sentatives of that institution will be
