COUNTRY the Foundation of its Pros

pcr.ts.
A few days ago the writer had
occasion to visit Raeford, the CAPT
tai of the newly created county of
HOke, and is led to say 4 few tnings
about this town because there Is
much Of interest to be said and be-
cause what is to be said should be
a lesson to the people Of Southern
Pines. !
Raeford was given a population
Of only about 700 BY the census Of
1910, but it i'm presses one as being
q much larger town than those fig
ures would Indicate.
'Raeford's main business street is
one that a town OF several times its
population might we'll be proud to
one hundred feet from curb to
curb, perhaps somewhat more than
tina 1t is perfectly level, hard
and Well kept, with fine cement
sidewalks on either side; not a few
yards here and there. but from one
end OF the street to the other. with
out a break.
The business buildings are largely
of brick. Some are small and only
one story high. Some of the orig
inal wood buildings are left, but
these are rapidly being replaced by
modern brick blocks Of two or three
stories. The MCLAUGHLIN Company's
block has four stores, 100 or 125 feet
deep ana 80 or % leeC IN WlUIG,
while the Farmers Furnishing Com
pany is erecting q three-storN building
with two stores of about the same
dimensions as those above mentioned.
There are other buildings that are
modern and commodious. The new
county building is to cost about
$40, 600. A new bank has been
organized, and fine room are being
fitted up for it. The older bank has
a capital of $4,000 and its deposits
run as high as S125.000. So much
banking is done that the success of
a second bank seems assured.
Raeford's business section has an
air of prosperity that is fully sus-
tanned by the substantial and at
tractiVe homes that adorn its pleas
ant residential streets.
Now. what is making Raeford grow
and thrive? OF course the creation
of the new county has given the town
new importance and a great impetus
as a business center. When the peO-
pie come in to court or to the month
ly meetings of the county commits
sloners. or when they drop in to trans
act business with the county officials
they are sure to do more or less
trading. The ounty seat always has
q distinct advantage in this respect.
The real explanation of Raeford's
present solid prosperity and good
promise of an unusually fine future
is found in its rich and w~ell-develop-
ed back country.
The writer was one of the party.

Mr. t. r. Upchurch. The former is
.~cuItfvating 400 acres and the latter
approximately 500
As soon as the autos reached the
outskirts Of the town they plunged
into the farming district, and for two
and a half miles ran through sollo
fields Of cotton and corn. IN re
urning, the party was taken through
some of these big fields IN order that
they might get a better idea OF their
extent and have an opportunity to
inspect the corn and cotton with some
care.
one field Of between 90 and 100
acres Of cotton on Mr.. Johnson'S
farm was a sight not soon to be for
cotton. 1t was matched by fields
of corn on Mr.. U~pchurch.s farm that
drew the most a~ppreciative and adj
miring EXPLANATIONS from the party.
Last ear Mr.. Johnson raised e15
bales Of cotton on 225 acres Of land.
This Year he has 235 acres in cot
ton. and is expecting to make a
bale to the acre. He is also figuring
on making a little matter of 5000
bushels Of corn on 80 acres.
Mr.. Upchurch finds corn a good
money crop. and thinks it as profit
able as cotton-perhaps more so, year
after year. He Will hay 1000
bushels of corn this year, judging
from the present condition of the
crop.
For miles around sifnilar farming
is being done, although not always
on quite SO large a scale. The null
DUPLICATION of farms and the develop
ment Of the back country is h
is justifying torres in Raeford that
would do justice to a city of $4,000.
Al II O'Clock that morning the
writer counted about an even hun
dred teams on the streets or parked
in the back lots just off the main
thoroughfare. Those teams from the
country explained the stores and
the general air of the town. To be
sure. it was the first Monday, but a
town that can show things like that
on the first Monday Will not be lone
some on any day IN the year.
Nearly everybody in town seemed
10 be doing farming outside, hurry
ing back and forth between their
homes in town and their farms be
yond, in their automobiles, in a way
that would make the heads Of the
INSTRUMENTATION tillers of the soil
swim.
The personal equation must not be
forgotten. The fight for the creation
of the new county united the lead
ing men of Hoke county. and when
had Q in the struggle for in
dependence" instead of disbanding
they pitched into another fight to
MAKE the new county one of the best.
They are doing things-big things
in a big way.
Mr.. UpchurCh bought 500 acres
Of ulCleared land six years ago. He
sawed lumber enough to pay for the
land. Then he cut ~ enough oak
wood TO take care of the cost of
clearing the land and made good
money out Of the first crop on the
ground.
A few Years ago both Johnson and
We're working for other
people for small wages. Last year
Mr.. Johnson must have sold his cot
for a sum approaching or equal
$15. 200, and he has other irons in
fire and they are all hot.
