Agriculture
Raleigh is located in the center of a rich farming coun- try. Here lands have doubled and, in some instances, trebled in value during the past five years. The country in this vicinity produces a great variety of crops, including corn, cotton, small grain, tobacco, sorghum, peas, and all sorts of truck, and in the County of Wake, of which Raleigh is the county seat, the corn-growing record of the United States has been broken by the production of 226 bushels on an acre, and the cotton-growing record, by the production of three and one-half bales on an acre.

INTRODUCTION
.
Professional Building
The Department of Commerce figures show the value of farms in Wake County to be $23,704,963, which is the second highest in the State. The adjoining County of John- ston stands first, with farm values at $25,777,998.
Insurance Center
Raleigh has four insurance company home offices. These companies are the Durham Life Insurance Company, Occidental Life Insurance Company, North Carolina Home Insurance Company and Atlantic Fire Insurance Company, which have total assets of $6,377,000.
Payrolls
Raleigh's annual payroll from four specific sources amounts to over three and one-half million dollars. The annual state payroll in Raleigh, including all employees, is $1,698,902. This embraces employees in the state insti- tutions in Raleigh, as well as the departments.
The Seaboard Air Line and Norfolk-Southern shops have 425 employees here. The annual payroll from this source is $800,000.
The colleges and schools in Raleigh, led by the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Engineering, have an annual payroll to the faculties and other employees, of $1,040,608. These figures do not include the city schools.
The Carolina Power & Light Company, which serves over seventy cities and towns in the Carolinas, with headquarters offices here, has an annual payroll in Raleigh of $500,000.
These interesting figures show some of Raleigh's sources of income, and are an indication of the substantial develop- ment of the city. In the payroll figures for the colleges and schools there is no method of determniing the large amount expended in Raleigh annually by the student popu- lation, which numbers around five thousand.
17
INTRODUCTION
Other Raleigh payroll figures from miscellaneous sources, largely confined to the printing industry, cotton mills, automobile garages and repair shops, lumber mills and machine shops have a payroll of $1,610,000 annually.
Historical Raleigh
There have been two Raleighs in North Carolina; the first the "City of Raleigh," on Roanoke Island, which came into being in the spring of 1587, upon the arrival of Gov- ernor John White. Of it only old Fort Raleigh, its defense, now remains. Governor White last saw it in life August 27th, that year, when he said goodbye to his colonists and sailed for England, expecting to return soon with more settlers and more supplies. In 1591 he saw it in death, its colonists gone without a trace, and utter silence over all. Then what is now North Carolina and all the rest of North America from the Pole to the Spanish possessions was "Vir- ginia," named fancifully by Sir Walter Raleigh, in honor of his queen, the great Elizabeth, who was unmarried and who had made him a knight. His high purpose was to found here "the British Empire in America." He lived to see that dream realized, for Jamestown in Virginia, founded in 1607, was settled under the auspices of his same company of "gentleman adventurers."
The inspiration of Sir Walter's great name persisted, and when, in 1787, the convention of the people of the state of North Carolina decreed that there should be a "fixed and unalterable seat of government," it was also decreed that it should be named in Raleigh's honor. It was a wise course to pursue, as since the establishment of the colony in 1663, there had been ten seats of government, at only three of which were there structures designed to be of a permanent character. These places were Edenton, Brunswick and Newbern, at the latter being the finest building in all North and South America; so noble that it was called the "Palace." It is small wonder that the one at the present Raleigh, built for the governors in 1814, was called the "Palace" also, until April, 1865, when the last governor to occupy it, Zebu- lon B. Vance, left it at the approach of the Federal Army, commanded by General William T. Sherman.
The city of Raleigh, in the County of Wake, was born like the hero in mythology, full-armed; that is to say, its site was purchased with the public funds, its location hav- ing been determined by the State Convention, under the order of which the General Assembly, or Legislature, acted. Its streets were named by the Convention and the special commissioners named by the General Assembly; not named in a casual way, but in honor of notable men and for the eight superior court districts. In like manner, the public squares were for men to whom the state was deeply indebted for its independence and other matters.
So it is that the Raleigh of today, established, bought and paid for March 30, 1792, is the consummation of a well-laid and definite plan. When President Washington reached Newbern in his tour through North Carolina in the spring of 1791, he set down in his diary that he was about 150 miles eastward of the place where the permanent capi- tal was to be, on a site bought with public funds, as Wash- ington, in the District of Columbia, was to be. The plan pleased and impressed him greatly. Perhaps he may have played no small part in the idea, as he did in the case of the present national capital.
Raleigh, like Washington City, made a small beginning. Washington was called for many years the "City of Mag-
18

nificent Distances." It was tiny, the Capitol and the President's house were but poor structures; its streets were mud in wet weather and dust in dry weather. So Raleigh had its flimsy and uncouth capitol building begun in 1793, and finished so it would be occupied in November, 1794.
Fires several times did damage to private property in Raleigh, one consuming a tenth of the buildings; another destroying the first capitol. The smallness of Raleigh per- sisted until several years after the Civil War. The first modern building after the State Capitol was finished in 1840, was the Post Office and Federal Court Building, in 1888. Really not until after 1900 did the city's aspect change much. It was largely a residential town. The building of the present Capitol did not lead to other permanent archi- tecture of importance, nor did the erection of the second state building, the Asylum for the Insane, in 1853-57, or the State School for the Blind and Deaf, in 1847.
Commercial National Bank
Raleigh's Substantial Growth
In 1907 the completion of the Masonic Temple marked the coming of fireproof buildings, and then came 1911-15, with the third state building, for the State Library, Su- preme Court and Historical Commission; the Citizens, Commercial and Raleigh Banking and Trust Buildings, and the City Auditorium. In fact, most persons, asked when Raleigh really began to grow, reply "when it built the Auditorium." The latter fixed it as the convention city of the state, for all the greater public gatherings.
Raleigh's first school was St. Mary's, built prior to 1840. Thirty years later came Peace Institute, and then about 1900, Meredith College, in the way of white institutions, while the negro ones, Shaw and St. Augustine's, date from 1867. Not until about 1890 did the State Agricultural and
19
INTRODUCTION
Mechanical College come into being. The State Prison was begun in 1869 and finished a number of years later. The Soldiers' Home, with buildings of wood, was occupied in 1891. In 1876, after a notable celebration of the 4th of July, the old "Palace" of the governors, long unoccupied, was secured for the first graded school. Some 20 years later the first high school was established in a building on the site of the "Palace."
The end of the World War gave another impetus, like that of 1911-15, and then came what may be termed the greater Hospital for the Insane and Epileptics, the School for the Blind, the Agricultural Building, The Agricultural and Engineering College, the Odd Fellows Building, the new Meredith College and public schools, modern and fireproof; a million dollar hotel, the Sir Walter; the Professional Build- ing, Carolina Hotel, the new Raleigh Banking & Trust Co. Building; Capital Club, a new 12-story office building, and such other structures along all lines as had been undreamed of, a great extension of area, the proper paving of the streets, and the advent of the most wonderful highway sys- tem in the south.

Odd Fellows' Building Progressive Capital City
Raleigh awoke New Year's Day, 1925, to find itself no longer a town, but a city; a place with a dual responsibility; to its citizens, but even more to North Carolina, which had conceived the great plan for it, bought the "unalterable site" and nobly laid out the place, the only one in all Amer- ica thus established.
In a county named in almost the last days of royal government, for a lady of the family of the next to the last royal governor; in almost the precise geographical center of the state, and near its present population center; in the

INTRODUCTION
region where the lower Piedmont and the Coastal Plain adjoin, its planning was at once noble and practical, while its growth has been in recent years so excellent as to show the wisdom of the forefathers of 1792, in laying it out with wide streets and large public squares.
All the romance of the first city of Raleigh, 1587, lingers in the present one. It is at the crossing of the roads, north to south and east to west, as it has been for nearly 150 years. Many of the state's greatest highways lead to it.
It is midway between New York and Florida.
At no other capital in all the United States are there so many state institutions. The construction of public build- ings, federal, state, county and city, as well as business houses, churches, schools, and homes has been well con- ceived and admirably carried out.
The Raleigh Chamber of Commerce
The Raleigh Chamber of Commerce functions most efficiently, having a membership devoted to the cause of community advancement in all that bears on the essential progress of the city. A spirit of unity prevails that is in- spiring in its application to civic problems. Thus, econ- omic, industrial, mercantile, municipal and social questions receive the consideration each deserves. Through the Chamber, the aggressive and optimistic citizen speaks, and he has an audience quite in sympathy with the loyal atti- tude he assumes. Every worthy enterprise is fostered. Heads of industries seeking a location are invited to corres- pond with the secretary.
