Letter from Arkalsa >.

We publish the following letter sent
from Arkansas to our tcwnsman, Mr.. J..
9. Randolph:
Mac Az1NE, LOGAN Co.. ARK.
May IL, 1885.
Mr.. J. C. RANDOLPH, DEAR SIR:
| see letter from you in Home and
Farm, descriptive Of your town and coun-
ty. judge from your letter that you are
farmer. You do not invite CORE spoons
dence, but l will take the liberty Of ask
ing few questions which hope you viii
answer in Home & Farm Or by letter.
What is the price Of land, improved and
otherwise? Is it ievelf Is ii rocky: Is
,, your water good and c3id? Does it run all
the summer? How about Ilealths y hat
kind of sickness? Do you have any chiila
! or rheumatism +? This is bad / Gun try fer
rheumatism. We raise cotton bale per
acre average, sometimes bale: corn from
Is to 75 bushels, wheat from 10 to %
bushels, cats Is to Is bushels.
Respectfully yours,
Il. I. MARI.
From the above questions we have been
! led to the consideration OF these things
and answer the following:
Land in town and very near, highly I'M
proved, is worth $50 per acre. In the adj
jacent country good land can be bought
for SIG per acre. Lands are level and per-
fectly free from rocks. The water IN the
main is good and cold, and ordinarily wells
do not dry during the summer. The
health of Scotland Neck and vicinity j:
not surpassed-not even in the mountain:
of North Carolina CT Virginia. There il
go sickness peculiar to this locality, Chill
and fevers are not more prevalent her.
than in any other section Of the State
Neither is there more rheumatism her
than in any other section.
We have endeayored to answer brief.
the questions sent Mr.. Randolph, ant
hope they may give the information hi
correspondent desires. In addition, "
would say that Scotland Neck and the sur
rounding country offer as great induce
f meuts to those desiring to settle in goo
) community as any other section in tn
State. Railroad facilities are ali that ca
be wished. Schools in the town and CON
