A BOOMING TOWN
WYTHEVILLE

Advances IN the race OF progress.
Called the Saratoga of the South. In
dustries nearing completion and con-
templated. Its churches and schools.
The scenery surrounding magnificent.
Wytheville's boom is attracting the
attention of the country.
Wythe county is noted Tor it's blue
grass and fine herds and rich agricult-
nral area. 1t embodies the mountain
scenery and climate and fine mineral
waters of Asheville, n. c., with iron
and coal vastly superior to Birmingham,
in the midst of an agricultural soil uni
versally superior to either. Located
upon the Norfolk and Western railroad,
half way between Roanoke and Bristol,
the former OF which is situated upon
the eastern border and the latter the
western border of the great upland
mineral basin known as Southwest Vir-
GINA. The proposed Virginia and Ken
lucky railroad, on which work will be-
gin soon, crosses the Norfolk and West
ern at this point. Tho Parkersburg,
Little Kanawha and Virginia railway
has also decided to build the proposed
connecting link between the Black Dia-
mond system and the Cape Fear and
Wytheville competing railway centre.
These lines will bring the Gossan ores
of Carroll, the mountain ores of Bland
and the limonite ores of Cripple Creek
and New River and tho coal fields of
Wythe, Bland and the Flat Top to-
gether at Wythcvillc, making it the
great iron and trade centre of Southwest
Virginia.
New factories and industries arc be-
ing located every week, among which
are two hotels costing 500, COO each
Steel Range and Stove Factory, S125, 900,
while applications for sites are con-
stantly coming in. The Wytheville
Manufacturing Company, organized with
dozen hands few months ago, engag-
ing in the building business, has in
creased its force to rs hands, with
twelve months work ahead engaged,
and will now increase their force to $50
hands. Streets are being graded every
where, rail sidings for factories, while
every movement goes to Indicate that
the place will be the growing industrial
town of 1891. The Wytheville Develop
ment Company, the pioneer mover in
the good work, owing IT'S acres of land,
had its first sale of lots from its choice
property, beginning September Goth,
when all the lots offered were soon
taken up, and to meet growing demand
for purchasers 800 more lots will be Of
fered December 18th and 18th, intrin-
sicily considered as valuable perhaps as
that of any company being offered in
Virginia, yet at prices extremely reason
able, which it is earnestly hoped will
encourage actual settlers rather than
lot speculation.
