tiea. Ia a mile of iiuisboroanu in
twelve Miles of Durham, lies
Col. Carr'a magnificent tkroneecbee
farm. It is an eight buudred acre
tract of red elay hills, and was an
old ante-bellum estate, which lol.
Carr purchased thirteen years ago
aud converted into a great Morn
and grass farm. He built great
barns on tbe most modern plans.
His stable cost f 12,000. Iu the
basement were the stalls for the
inulea, Tbe first floor was given
over to tbe horses, and the third
was for teed. The horses were
given clean board noora, wmcn
were scoured daily, and the balls
were filled with comfortable chairs
and the walls adorned with pic
(urea. The cow barn was built on
the name scale, with a marble
floored dairy attached! Other
housM of leaser importance were
placed here and youder. i ifteen
buudred dollar horses, five bun
dred dollar cows aud two hundred
dollar hogs storked them. A fiue
half-mile race track was opened,
and the banks of the little Kuoree
river, upon which tbe farm lies,
were made into pretty drives aud
walks. A costly dam supplied
water for the water works and a
poud for the fish. There are ten
acres of chicken lots, each yard
with its house being given to a par
ticular breed. Every gate post
supported a pigeon box, turkeys
roamed the fields and flocks of
handsome peafowls were not want
ing. A mineral spring by the road
side supplied water for whomso
ever would drink. Fields of alfalfa
and other rich forage plants
flourished.
