During; this stage he lived almost wholly, alone, there, was no need of towns because everything was raised at home. A money crop was not thought ot. . When there was a surplus over a decent living it went for luxuries. Later this old custom gave away to a higher stage ot living and with this came a demand for money. To build new houses and to make many" other needed improve ments' a certain amount of money was necessary. .This demand was answered by the introduction ot a money crop At first in Wilson this was in the form of cotton. For many years the acreage of this staple in creased until it almost supplanted every other crop. Farmers thought it better to raise ten cent cotton and buy the necessaries of life than to spend time trying to raise them. When the price of cotton, therefore fell the farming class of people felt very keenly the effects. The amount of cctton which they had been living on for years comfortably no longer answered the needs ot their families. This state of things grew from bad to worse until "the tobacco industry came'in, this in a great measure pre vented the crash that would have come otherwise. , At present the money crop is diyided between cot tori and tobacco. Should the prices of these continue to fall the tanner will be unable to meet the many re sponsibilities which the decade of hard times has placed on him. , Along with thjs strivieg tor pros perity from the ground comes a grad ual strain on the natural resources, which will in time render much of our best farming sections unproductive. unless a relief is br ought about. The farmer is forced at present to put into cultivation almost every foot ot avail able land on his plantation every year and in this way no part of the land receives the necessary stimulant to keen it up to the normal ? state !

From the beginning of its prosperity energetic men have taken hold of nearly every line of industrial pro gress practicable under our climatic conditions. These men have shown during their stay in Wilson a willing ness to push forward every line of in-. - dustry which in any way promised success. The mere fact ; that our strivings have been so diversified in a great measure accounts for our rap id progress- Had our efforts been combined along certain lines, had the people been dependent on any one w occupation for support we would not be able to-day to boast of having the garden city of Eastern Carolina.
