PREFACE
(Continued from page 10)
The chief employment in Person County is about equally divided as to Industry and Agriculture. Flue-cured tobacco is the principal cash crop, however, cattle, hogs, poultry, hay, wheat, corn and oats are prominent on the farms in this area. Many of the industrial and com- mercial employees here live on the farm and commute to their work daily.
The City has an auction tobacco market with six tobacco ware- houses covering about 175,000 square feet of space for tobacco sales. Each season about 10,000,000 lbs. of tobacco is auctioned on this market, bringing into the hands of the farmers approximately $5,200,000.00. There is produced in Person County about 15,000,000 lbs. of tobacco each season. There is also located here a modern tobacco redrying plant. There are several grain markets and mills in the area. One poultry processing plant, and a sweet-potato processing plant and market.
COMMERCIAL
The retail stores of Roxboro are probably above average for a community of this size. This is due to the wide field without competition. There is an excellent coverage in department stores, groceries, and chain grocery stores, drug stores, jewelry stores, ladies wearing apparel, haberdashery, hardware, farm implement and farm machinery distribu- tion, automobile sales of most all makes of cars, and well equipped garages and repair shops, automobile accessories and parts, and build- ing materials, sporting equipment, boats, etc.
