have come to be important profitable
industries. There are many large vine
wards in Eastern North Carolina One
in Halifax county yields from 10000
to 10000 gallons of wine annually.
The area under consideration is rich
in the variety and extent Of its forest
growth Middle Virginia has some pine,
oak, hickory, locust, cedar and other
timber As to the rest of the territory,
the long-leaf pine is the prevailing tim
her of the uplands. In the river bot
toms and in the swamps the growth is
oak, cypress, black gum, tupelo, maple,
ash, juniper, hemlock, dogwood, mag
nola, poplar, holly and other kinds.
Eastern North Carolina has been always
conspicuous for its lumber and naval
stores industries, and the timber supply
has been heavily drawn upon. This is
particularly true of the long-leaf pine.
The railroads of this region, as well
as the land owners and the people gen
orally. are thoroughly aroused on the
subject Of immigration. Tney do not
want any pauper immigration, but they
do want thrifty and reputable farmers
to come in and utilize the resources that

200 TO 400: peanuts, 40 TO 90; hay, :

been enumerated, the lands Of this sec
ton are capable, under better farming
methods, of much better average re-
suits than have been realized. This is
amply demonstrated III the notable sue

farmers to be found in almost every
locality, whose farms have become

But the most rapidly expanding and
prospectively the predominant agricul-
tural interest In this section Is the grow

likely that all this southeastern Virginia
and eastern North and South Carolina
will become in time a vast aggregation
of gardens and orchards and vineyards.

here Contrary to expectations San
Francisco editors have determined 10 Oh
serve the signed-articles law passed by
the recent Legislature, at least until a
test case shall have been decided upon
by the courts.
They intend to do more than this, for
nearly every dispatch or local item, no

The signed-articles act, which went

tically confess that these were hhelous.

1t would be easy to multiply almost

Car0linas. 1t is not luck, but the appii-
cation to this branch of farming of the
methods and principles that obtain in a
mercantile, banking, manufacturing or
any other business. Unlike any other
business, it does not suffer from compe-
tition. As the business increases the
railroads can afford to provide better fla
cilities for handling it; the products

better condition. Moreover, the sale in

Northern communities Of fresh fruits and
vegetables before they can be had from
local gardens is capable of almost indef-
mite expansion. An ample rainfall and
mild and equable climate favor the
rapid growth and early ripening Of all
vegetables, and the products of this re-
gion reach the Northern markets when
prices are highest. In this is the eXpla-
nation of the great protitableness of the
business.
Between Goldsboro and Wilmington
were in 1894 about LOO acres in straw
berries. The increase has been large since
then. Other small fruits and vegetables
are grown extensively. Two, and often
three, crops a year are grown on the
same land. Potatoes yield 70 barrels
TO the acre, and are ready for shipment
early in June; the prices realized in one
year We're 50, S6, and 81 n barrel. Beets
grown through the winter are always a
sure and profitable crop. Cabbage also
grows through the winter and pays we'll;
as much as 326 barrels to the acre has
been grown here. Asparagus is always
profitable. A good average yield is
1000 bushels to the acre. and 81 per
dozen lunches is an average price. This
gives a gross return of about $40 an
acre. The cost Of cultiyating, gathering
and shipping approximates 500 an acre
which includes $50 for fertilizers The
net profit per acre is therefore about
$3.50.
1t has not been many years since the
land on this division of the Atlantic
Coast Line, that is between Gsoldsboro
and Wilmington, was looked TpOn as
worthless, and the owners of the road
regarded this section as having no pros
pective traffic-produeing value. 1t is

are lying waste They realize the great
benefits to the whole section that would
accompany a large increase in popula-
ton. The Atlantic Coast Line is one
of the most liberal and progressive roads
in the country. 1t is liberal not from
motives of philanthropy, but because it
pays On this principle it will extend
every possible facility and aid to farm
ers, manufacturers and merchants, who
may settle along its line. 1t is seeking
to make traffic. and it recognizes the
fact that every new settler is future
producer Of traffic. The policy Of the
road is broad and far-sighted one. 1t
looks beyond the present. In the truck
ing business, for instance, in which it is
now equaled by only two or three roads
in America, it was a pioneer in proyid-
ing facilities for getting vegetables and
fruits to the Northern markets in the
shortest possible time, in the best con-
dition, and at lowest rates; and it is
largely due to the care and liberality
with which it has fostered and encour-
aged this industrdy that the business has
grown to its present proportions. And
so in all lines of freight traffic, shippers
who use this road win receive always
not only equitable but liberal treatment.
Its customers become its friends and
advocates | said freighT Jrafiic, but
the same general policy applies likewise
to its passenger service. From the most
