With the cxceptitn of Darliam "tlie
growth of no town jri North Carolina can
at all compare with hat of Winston, which
sii late as 1870 contained jonly 470 inhab
itants, r. It has now ,a population of 3,187.
LikeJMrhaiu the cause of this growth has
Jecn ' the great staple of tobacco., The ,
first sale Was made there in 1872, and the.
attention of tobacconists jwas at once at
tracted to the advantages there offered.
There are rioiv three very large warehouses
for the sale of' leaf tobacco,, which pld
duriii; tlie past twelve months abont eight
million pounds. There are thirteen facto
ries, all of which manufacture plug. tobac
co only; whereas at Durnu;m smoking to
bacco is chiefly manufactured. The! num
ber of pounds, of plug tobacco manufac
tured by these factories and fur which
stamps had been sold, amounted to nearly
two millions during the past year.
Rut Winston is also the market for a
productive grain growing section and has
an extensive back-country trade. In dried
fruit alone, it annually, snips two or three
iii ill ion pounds, which brings" back J no in-,
considerable sum. The merchants do a
large' wholesale as well as retail business.
There are several firms that sell each from
ftfty to one hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars worth, of goods annually, i roduce is
brought to Winston not only frm
the
but
northwestern counties ot his htaje,
also from the- adjoining counties jn

Winston with the outer world. "This road
