AGRICULTURAL


Rowan County has 272,591 acres of land in farms, (1949). The State estimates that there are 16,872 people living on Rowan land tracts of three or more acres. Farming is highly mechanized, and crop diversi- fication shows a modern conception of best methods. Dairying is a prin- cipal activity, supported by small grains and cover crops. Growing sea- son range is favorable, soil structure and moisture shows desirable char-


.


acteristics, and weather extremes are rarely prolonged. Rowan leads the South in the growing of Lespedeza and leads the State in the production of wheat crop, including acreage and yield. Rural highways are rapidly being surfaced, homes in the county are modern, and equipped with lights and telephone.


DISTRIBUTION


Probably no city in the South has better distribution facilities than Salisbury. The Spencer Transfer, the largest freight transfer terminal south of Philadelphia, is located at the Southern Railway's plant, where merchandise is assembled from all over Piedmont North Carolina, un- loaded and reloaded into through-package cars and trains going to the principal commercial centers of the United States.


Exceptional facilities are offered by express service. Modern well- paved highways radiating in all directions give additional weight to Salis- bury's claim as a distributing center and afford speedy motor express service to all points.


Salisbury has a community airport which will presently accommo- date company-size planes. Facilities include border lighted field, a large hanger, and complete service for plane operation. Located on a surfaced highway, just three miles from the city, the Salisbury Municipal Airport offers modern convenience to the private flyer and to business travellers. Nearby regional ports with air connections to all national points maintain busy schedules, and are easily reached from Salisbury.


EDUCATIONAL


Salisbury's educational facilities are of the best and most modern, having five white public schools, including a high school, and three negro schools, including a high school. Other educational institutions include : Catawba College, fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, offering a full four-year course in Liberal Arts. The Salisbury Business College, which provides excellent commercial and secretarial training, also the Salisbury Commercial College. Livingstone College (Southern Association Class A) offers negro citizens a four-year curriculum.


The Rowan County Public Library, located in Salisbury, has experi- enced a steady growth in recent years and under the guiding hand of a capable librarian this institution is rendering a great service to Salis- bury and Rowan County. The library facilities are widely used.


A brand new community library, located at the corner of Church and Fisher Streets, provides a new home for the center's excellent library service, and the new facility includes meeting room space for civic and arts groups. A new $100,000 library has been built for our negro citi- zens, also.


CIVIC AND FRATERNAL ORGANIZATIONS


Nearly all of the leading fraternal organizations are represented by strong local chapters.


Civic organizations include : Rotary, Kiwanis, Civitan, Lions, and Altrusa Clubs. American Legion and Auxiliary, Woman's Club, Junior Woman's Club, Merchants Association and Chambers of Commerce.


RADIO - NEWSPAPER - TELEVISION


WSTP am/fm (MBS) and WSAT (ABC) are the community's ag- gressive commercial radio services. THE SALISBURY POST, published as an evening daily, is one of the most modern newspapers in the country for this size market. Area television stations are received in the com- munity. Radio communication systems are effectively used by city, coun- ty and state law enforcement officers in the local area.


CHURCHES


A list of principal denominations is available at the Chamber of Com- merce office, N. Main Street.


HOSPITALS


The new VA Hospital has been activated. Designed as a neuropsy- chiatric facility, the 1,128-bed hospital is located on a more than 450-acre site now incorporated into the Salisbury city limits, near the Statesville entrance to the city. Comprising nineteen buildings, the vast hospital plan is one of the most modern in the United States, and will serve North Carolina's 4,000,000 population-qualified veterans of this population. The facility is expected to serve the medical growth of Salisbury. The Rowan Memorial Hospital is undergoing an expansion. The medical staff offers excellent qualification, and several specialized medical services are available. The Hospital participates in the Duke Endowment and offers many advantages not available elsewhere.


RECREATION


A planned recreation program in the Salisbury community is under professional direction of a paid staff, and some $35,000 to $40,000 is expended annually for these activities. An outstanding golf course is lo- cated at the Salisbury Country Club (membership basis). The city has five theatres, a farm club of the Pittsburgh Pirates, active college and school sports, swimming, fishing and boating at large High Rock Lake in the county, City Park and Mirror Lake for picnicing and varied games. Salisbury is near the Blue Ridge Mountains, and about two hundred miles from the Atlantic Coast. These resort areas are frequently utilized by Salisbury residents.


HOTELS AND MOTELS


The Yadkin Hotel, 160 rooms, The Empire Hotel, 70 rooms, Mid- way Court, 10 units, are recommended for lodging. The city has modern restaurants and cafes.

SALISBURY,

A Community on the March


1. DIVERSIFICATION


Salisbury enjoys a well-diversified economy, striking a happy balance between industry and agriculture. More than 76 industries employ 17.500 people throughout the 537-square-mile area of the County. Fourteen populated communities totalling 75,410 (1950 Census) offer advantage of uncrowded living, yet quick access to plants and shopping facilities.


2. LOCATION


"Pivot of the Piedmont," Salisbury is situated mid-point between Charlotte and Winston-Salem on four important highways and two state routes. Southern Railway's freight assembly and distribution to national points from Spencer is the largest operation of its kind in the Southeast.


3. LABOR SUPPLY


Recent studies of available workers in the Salisbury area have been made by the Employment Security Commission, and some 9,400 people are considered employable for jobs. The entire community is interested in expansion of business and development of new commerce and industry.


4. CHURCHES


There are more than 80 churches in Rowan County, including Protestant, Jewish, Catholic, indicating keen interest of our people in religious values. An estimated $3,000,000 or more has been recently spent on expanding and mod- ernizing church and Sunday School facilities.


5. HOMES


Since World War II, housing has expanded rapidly in Rowan, and there are nearly 20,000 homes in the entire community. Additional housing is expected to be built soon to accommodate the personnel to be employed by the large Veterans Administration Hospital, now completing.


6. SCHOOLS


Thirty-six elementary schools, an excellent high school system, two colleges and two business colleges provide ideal educational opportunities.


7. NATURAL RESOURCES


Rowan County's $90.000,000 annual economy is sustained by its textile indus- tries, its granite and clays, its transportation activities, its dairy farming, etc. Natural gas, unlimited electric power, river water, available sites, favorable climate . . . makes a most attractive picture.

and the greatest of these is ...


Character


A message to parents and educators on the need of Character-Forming as a Part of Every Child's Training


Character, Capacity and Capital are the three standards by which business men judge applicants for credit. And CHARACTER comes first.


For, a man may have Capital, plenty of money. He may have Ca- pacity-the ability to earn more. But without Character-the willingness to pay promptly according to agreement -his promises are worthless. The man with character can be depended upon to keep his promises and meet his obligations.


Character is a child's heritage, strengthened by the example of the parent and the precept of the teacher during early years - the formative period.


Character is honor --- a high sense of personal responsibility and respect for one's obligations. And every child has the right to be trained in the tenets of honesty and fairness in meet- ing his obligations. Otherwise his education is incomplete - his chance for success is impaired.

COLLEGES


LIVINGSTONE COLLEGE Salisbury, North Carolina


Livingstone College


the chief school of the A. M. E. Zion Church, is located in Salisbury, in the western part of North Carolina. Its position on the main line of the Southern Railroad makes it easily ac- cessible from any direction.


This College was founded in 1879, opened its doors in Con- cord, N. C., in 1880, and moved to Salisbury in 1882. The illustrious Joseph Charles Price was the first president of the new College. The aim of the institution has from the beginning been to serve humanity and the Negro race by training young men and women for Christian leadership. During the seventy-one years of its operation as a College, Livingstone has given to the Negro race and to the world some of the outstanding characters of the time. Many of the leaders in American life today are graduates of Living- stone College.
