10 is of vital importance To every cit.
lien of the county, that good roads be
constructed even to its uttermost
boundaries a road from Farmville to
Prospect and thence 20 the extreme
Northwest boundary Of the county is
much needed 10 would be of incacu.
liable advantage to Prospect and Of al-
most as much TO Farmville, tapping a
rich tobacco section. Such road from
FarmviIie to Rice's and on would do
Farmyiile and Rice's "a similar benefit.
North of Prospec, and around Rice's,
and the whole county from Farmville
to the Charlotte line contains many
thousand acres of the finest land for
the growth of flue cured tobacco to be
found anywhere, and Farmvlle should
be the center of a light tobacco trade
that should rival Durham, n. c. The
lands around Durham, ~ c., and in
the light tobacco sections of Fluvanna,
Va, are new, nearly all, and we should
make enor, TO gain the overflow from
these sections.
Then, too, grape cuiturists should be
encouraged The very finest grapes
can be raised here and ripened early
they have been ripe here in the county
fur over two months. Under proper
cultivation on our Southern hillsides
they could he ripeued even earlier and
Farmyille should be their market and
point of distribution.
Now to attract farmers, gardeners
and manufactures, we need roads, and
good ones, and "a good system Of roads;
not detached piece Of road here and
one yonder, but whole converging
system From Hampden-Sidney to
county line a good road could be made
by transferring sand and clay; at many
places gravel could be laid at small cost,
az others the macadam would be need
ed. But a we'll thought out system Of
roads is a necessity if we wish our
county to grow and prosper, and the
more every town and village grows
the more is the ultimate receipts for
expenses of the county other than
roads, the farmer has always paid for
the roads, now let's get all Others to
help. For this is needed good and
new legislation, so that corporate
towns should pay their share, and
the farmer should cease to pillow up the
roads with narrow tires. Lethim look at
the picture Of an automobile, or at the
nearest traction engine. The wheels
of both are broad because they run
easier so.
Farmville has shown herself TO be
generous in the matter Of road con-
struction and we hope will continue to
be so. And as every help to the coun-
ty helps her and reciprocally, let Farm
vile urge the need Of a good road sys-
tenn. and endeavor to attract to itself
truckers and a more
varied line Of farm products. Both
Farmville and the county should re-
member that road construction besides
being q direct aid to all, is the best and
most lasting advertisement.
