Summer and Winter Tourists Flock to Western North Carolina. Southern Railway Reveals "The Land of the Sky" and "The Sapphire of the Country." The day has passed when the tide of travel tor pleasure or health or to escape from the heat ot ilie summer mouths flows northward I mmrinafion for a long time lured tourists in that direction in tlie belie! that toward that point of the compass, an 1 that alone, could comfort be f and in summer or rest attained b\ nose wearied by prolonged application to business cares. Experience, made possible by tbe development, ot the South by the Southern Rail way, has shown that in the picturesque portions of North and South Carolina, Virgina, Georgia, Tennesse, and other States of the Southern country, nature has provided the ideal conditions that tend to make a summer vacation healthful, restful and thoroughly satisfying. One naturally thinks of the All f li o o n nn n t nr ronnrl l\n f ^ It r> k'UUV?' (to >1 T* III to t IC3W11) UUb HI?T Southern Railway has made it po-sible for thousands ot persons to know that in Western North Carolina the climate is perfect t he year round, and that in midsummer that region is ideal. Whether it be the hunter, the angler, or the idler, the broad plateau, the foothills, and the mountain sides and tops of the picturesque Blue Ridge open day after day new fields lor sport and new scenes of rest or recreation. Kvery desirable spot of this broad plateau, 2,000 feet above the Hea, is accessible by the Southern Railway, whose schedule has been arranged to meet the particular requirements of summer Iravel and especially ol those \\ ho are limited to week-end trips. The grandeur ot the seem y along the line of this road is seen i a' it? best in "The Land ot th> JSk>'' ami the "Beautilul Sap p ire Country," the very name> j themselves giving some hint of j tlie remarkable beauties unfold . ed to the visitor. Asheville is the center of "Ti e| Land of the Skv," and radiating j from it may be found Hot Springs, Waynesviile, Haywood White Sulphur Springs, llendcrsi nville, Brevard, Billmore, j Lake Toxawav, and, a short (lis : lance farther on to the south wed, "the Beautiful Sapphire Country." It is to the enterprise ol lhe{ Southern Railway that these now famous sections of the South owej their popularity. They are easi-j ly reached hy palatial through express trains from New York City, affording every comfort and luxury during tne Southern journey. Connections carefully arranged liko ise make tin m accessible trom all points in tiie South and West. It is at, Sal is bury, N. C , that the tourist from t! e North gains his lirst glimpse of ihe beautiful country. From that point until the train reaches the summit of Ihe Blue Ridge, I he route is through a district < constantly changing and exqu site scenery. The Sapphire couutry has bee compared, and not inaptly, 1 the far famed English lake di trict hut. this ImLca rppinn nf tli South is on a much grandc scale. Us mountain peaks tov er well into the clouds and i cliffs are twice the height of tlioi in England. Its cataracts au mountain streams come p'.ungii down their rocky beds fr^ni it greater distances than the Enj lisli streams In the region the "Laud of the Sky" more th eighty mountain peaks tower o' er 5,000 feet, and twenty thr< of them are higher than Moui Washington, the giant of tl White Mountains. No longer i the mountain resorts ot Ne Hampshire, New York and Ve mont hold sway, for since tl erection of the splendid hole and innumerable hostelries mure muuesi ui m section, those seeking heal t rest, recreation and change hai found in this glorious mounta and lake region climate, scenei and comfort?and what more cf one want. There was issued from tl press only yesterday an artist brochure by the Southern Rai way telling all about this com try. It contains time tables, d scriptive matter, the names < tesorts, the prices charged, ai tells how to get there. It is complete index to a perfect v cation country, and after readii it no one need be in doubt as where to spend his vacation, ho much it will cost and how reach it?Post, Washington, J 0, Visiting Neighbors' iTarms Every farmer should get o occasionally and visit his neig bors' farms.
