Winston-Salem is the state's largest industrial city with more concerns than the article's limited space can do justice to. The best-known industry in the city is the Reynolds Tobacco Company. Throughout the county there are 127 industrial enterprises employing over 30,000 people. Tobacco is the county's cash crop, with sales earning the growers over $10 million annually. A number of other food crops are grown as well.
