Ten North Carolina counties account for 90% of the
state’s total industrial payrolls. There are a total of
100 counties in North Carolina. Obviously, most of
them are predominantiy agricultural, offering uriimit-

dustry locations.
Another interesting fact is that where most of the in
dustrial progress now taking place in North Carolina,
the “legal sale” of beer has proven to be Ihe most
workable system in the best interest of these law-abid
ing communities.
