Virginia Opportunities.
The opportunities in Virginia for the man of energy and ambition are many. No State in the Union has more. They in- clude manufacturing along many lines, general farming, live stock raising, dairy farming, poultry raising, fruit and truck growing.
Virginia lands, properly handled, will grow the largest and most profitable crops of grains, grasses, legumes, fruit of all kinds and vegetables.
The climate, the fine pasturage, the large hay yields, the pure water permit the breeding and keeping of all kinds of live stock at the lowest cost. Splendid home markets and the fine transporta- tion facilities to the greatest cities of the country give to breeders of live stock, dairy farmers and poultry raisers the best advantages.
No better fruit is known than can be produced in Virginia orchard districts. There is room for many more fruit growers and there are the lands which will give them splendid returns.
In every line of agriculture, farm gardening to dairying, the farmer can find no better location than in Virginia.
Conditions make Virginia pre-eminently a State for home, for the small farmer, or for the man who wishes a country estate.
The Southern Railway reaches preferred districts in Virginia, serving many different sections of the State. You can undoubtedly find along its lines the opportunities you are seeking.
A request to the Industrial and Agricultural Department of the Southern Railway will bring you information about lands, locations, farm and home opportunities, factory sites and other industrial and business openings.
