phia and fourteen from New York. It
is situated at the junction of the Shen-
andoah Valley and Norfolk and West
ern railroads, both trunk lines, and is
easily reached from any section of the

The Roanoke and Southern railroad
is now being built to this place from
Winston, n. c., and will in a years
time open up the trade of the Carolinas
to this section. The Valley Branch of
the Baltimore and Ohio runs to licking
ton, forty miles distant, and a road filing
the connecting link will be constructed
The growth of the CITY dates from
1882, when the headquarters of the Nor
folk and Western were removed here
from Lynchburg, the Shenandoah VAL
ley road was completed, and the Roam
oke Machine Works, employing at pre-
sent ZOO hands, was established. Since
then millions Of dollars have flowed
into the city in the establishments of
manufactures and other business enter
prises.
Coal and iron and the rich apricul.
tural lands of the section have con-
tributed to the growth.
Roanoke has sixty-five miles OF streets

The water works are sufficient to fur

supply comes from pure, cold sprinp
that gushes from the side of Mill noun,
tain, and Is without equal in any city
in the country. 1t is undoubtedly a
specific for many forms of kidney dis
case. ssgee

pany and the Electric Light and Motor
Power Company.
The property valuation, according to
the assessment of this year, is nearly
S0,000,000, besides the railroad property
and the Roanoke Machine Works The
increase in the value of realty was
about S5,000,000 over the previous
