42 THE ALABAMA OPPORTUNITY. 



Peach growing- has in the past few years attracted great at- 

 tention. Thousands of acres' of peach orchids have been put 

 out and thousands of acres more will be put out in the near- 

 future. These peaches are said to be the best that are offered 

 for sale and they too bring the top of the market, wherever 

 they are sent. Many of the recent importations of colonists 

 will engage in the peach raising industry. 



This section is, in short, the garden of the State.
