PEACHLAND I!


Pe achland is situated in Arson
county, in the Piedmont section OF
North Carolina, near the Union
county line, on the S. A. L. Rail
way, II miles from Wadesboro, the
county seat.
In the beginning let us say that
there is not more healthy place
within the borders of the State.
The land is Of a gravelly and, sandy
soil with red clay sub-soil, which
stands second to none for farming
purposes. With this good hard
sub-soil the fertility of the land
will stay. Such is the case in and
around this place. The abundant
crops will prove this statement
true. There are great fields of
corn here that will make an av-
erage Of 50 to Is bushels per acre,
which is made with very little
work after the land has been we'll
prepared in the spring. Cotton
will make from one thousand five
hundred to two thousand pounds
per acre which, after counting ex
penses, will give nice profit. The
farmers that are making a success
today are the ones that are put.
ting most of their time to making
the above mentioned crops. There
are other crops that are profitable,
viz: Wheat, oats, corn, peanuts,
grasses, sweet and Irish potatoes,
sturnips; ia fact almost any kind Of
vegetables, especially cabbage and
tomatoes, can be grown to great
advantage with proper cultivation
here. And fruits Of every descrip-
ton, apples, peaches, pears, grapes,
figs and berries abound from early
spring until late in autumn. We
are now enjoying late apples, soup
pernong grapes, an abundance Of
delicious figs, muscadines and
persimmons. Grapes and other
fruits can be easily raised in great
quantities for shippil g which has
been proven by many throughout
this section. And truck farming
has been tried by few which was
a great success. This is a fine sec
ton for stock and cattle raising as
grasses Of every description abound
and all who have engaged in it
have found it perfect success.
To the sportsman we will say
our forests are alive with birds,
rabbits, opossums, wild
turkeys, coons and the fox, which
afford much pleasure as we'll as
sport for the man Of leisure, and
added to this we have a magnif-
cent stream of water near from
' hich the trout, club and a vari-
sty of fish are caught with nets,

HE WANTS TO KNOW

Director Johnson. of the Street and
Sewer Commission. wants TO know
something about that ten-year lighting
contract. This is refreshing. and sug-
gests that it would have been desirable
had the old commission been moved
by the same thirst for knowledge. Mr..
johnson at the meeting yesterday
said:
Somebody is at fault, and we want
to know who is responsible. There is a
great opposition among the citizens to
the term the contract is to remain in
force. There is. in fact. great opposi-
ton to the contract. and the hurried
way in which il was fixed up. II has
created a great deal of dissatisfaction.
The whole thing presents an ugly face
for the hurried manner in which it was
done 1t was telegraph here and tele-
phone there. and fitting up and down
on trains. and everything done with a
hustle and hustle within a day or two.
CRITICISM is going on from all sides
and there is no one to come forward
and make an explanation. The whole
thing has distasteful appearance. 1t
Is eXasperating."
Mr. Brown. OF the Welsbach Com
pany. admitted that he had received
clippings from the Wilmington papers
apprising him Of the state of public
feeling here over the contract, but
said:
The clippings / saw made so many
mis-statements THAT paid no attention

tiele evidently did not know what n,
was writing about"

marked Mr.. Johnson. Nobody knew
about it. and nobody knows about
now apparently. for we can find on
nothing respecting the way it wa.
awarded"
Go on. Mr. Johnson; you are direc
tor after our own heart. and after tn
hearts OF the people Of Wilmington. I

prove good. let us not fail to let III

the Philadelphia Ledger which We be-
lieve cannot be substantiated, and re-
marks: 1T Is not a pleasing picture
Is il? And yet It IS true Then II
goes on 10 talk about American people
"condoning slavery In The islands and
recognizing polygamy" there. This
lis followed BY the usual statement
that we are waglng war against "a
people who are undoubtedly patriotic, -
and who ARE inspired by a desire to
make their own government-rights
that are held TO be inallena5le by our
Declaration OF independence Now. nhe
editorial which il quotes says the Fill
pines are mot a civilized people
and the only thing that they know is
fear of force" And the Every Evening
adds that they keep slaves and prac-
tice polygamy. Isn't it a little strange
then, that a people unciyllized, know
ing no motive but fear, polygamists
and shareholders should be held up to
our admiration as patriots. liberty
loving and as standing for the in
rights proclaimed in our Inn
mortal Declaration. The Every Even
ing proves too much.
