and Michigan, where they value their properties at $500 to $1,800 per acre, and in California, where they are well satis fied with $10 a ton for their grapes and the different big wineries willing and anxious to make long term contracts at twice that pi ice for scuppernong grapes, .and a well-cared-for scuppernong vine yard will grow as many and in oaie in stances twice as many to the acre as the vineyards do in California, where they value their vineyards at from 500 to $2,000 per acre. As an investment or avocation there is none better than a scuppernong vineyard in the Sandhills. Tl.USGUPTIIEPm: II A Ml HEX The Country Gentleman Find Inter-eating- Material for Local Story The Country Gentleman for February 7th is one of especial interest locally, con taining as it does a story on "Tuning up the Pine Barrens." Here is the advance announcement concerning the artic'e: k' A group of young men the Pages, Gate, Derby, Pumpelly and others are spending their time and monev trying to prove that the sandhills and cut-over lands between Carthage and Laurinburg and Candor and Fayetteville can be made into good-paying farms and cattle country. Already they have achieved a measure of success. They are making an experiment from which every man in North Carolina may profit. If they succeed it will mark the begin ning of a new agricultural prosperity. A full account of what these young men are doing and to just what extent they have " made good " is contained in an article by Barton W. Currie, a trained journalist who has been through the South and was a visitor here early in November." For February 14th an article on "Down South The New Era of Optimism and Opportunity" is announced. "The South," says Mr. Curry, " as an agricul tural section is just beginning to find itself, and once she falls into her stride there is scarcely any limit to her possi bilities for diversified production. There is every fundamental reason today for the South to lead the Nation in the pro duction of beef cat le, pork and mutton; moreover there is everywhere in the South what the lawyers call k newly dis covered evidence' to prove that the pos sibilities are being capitalized and will eventually pay splendid dividends. The economic cut-off is straightaway South. " You may still find the old negro and his mule toiling away at his crude press to produce a trickle of cane syrup, but likewise you may find mammoth dams and power plants producing hundreds of thousands of horse-power and conveying it in all directions for industrial and traction purposes and for lighting. And this is but one of the great engines of Southern development that have begun to turn the flywheels of progress. " I am convinced of one thing, how everthat the fair-minded reader will aree with me in the end that the South is one of the Nation's greatest assets that has been too long neglected by those who are seeking the most favorable channels for their enterprise and investment." woar rx the east inning Three M.vn Score on Hall Which Slips Between Basemen The baseball teams lined up for the first game of the season on Tuesday, and there was excitement throughout, three runs in the sixth and last inning pushirig the Village nine across the plate, a G 4 winner. The Carolinas scored a run in the. first and second innings, blanking the Village and holding their own in the third. In the fourth both teams added a run, and in the fifth the Village tallied two to one for the Carolinas, with the crisis in the sixth inning where a ball which escaped both the first and second basemen pushed three men across the plate. MacCrehan and Macauley were the battery for the winners, with Spread bury wearing the mit for the Carolinas and Mahoney and Finnegan alternating in twirling, f The score by innings : Village 0 0 0 1 2 36 Carolinas 110 11 0 1 Anjhody Here Seen Smytbey ? This we clip from The Taunton Herald. Personally, we have not had the pleasure of hearing Patrolman Smythe elucidate on the violin, and we hnve been unable to locate the "hotel veranda" to which the "natives from miles around' flock: f " Patrolmen George Smythe and Mar tin Hanrahan are enjoying the south ern breezes at Pinehurst, N. C. In post cards which their friends in this city have received, . they state the weather conditions are excellent, and during the past week, while the North has been swept by a gale, they were going out without overcoats. The only complaint they have to register is in regard to the high cost of living, eggs selling for 90 cents a dozen, while milk sells for 20 cents a quart. Patrolman Smythe, who is an excellent violin player, gives a con cert each evening; on the hotel veranda, and the natives for miles around flock to the hostelry to listen to the strains of the latest New York successes." lr. Singrer Favors Inn Guests Mrs. J. G. Singer of Toronto, accom panied by Mrs. F. D. Adams of New York, gave a delightful musicale on Sun day evening at The Holly Inn. Her solos included "Goodbye" byToti, and "Oh, Fair, Oh, Sweet and Holy" by Condor. OUIMET AS "MAC" SEES IIIM VIRGINIA HOT 5PRING5 Y';'t. -V VI: ?. ......
