It will be observed, by the advertisement
IN another column, that Messrs Jenkins &
Skies have inaugurated a most important
enterprise at Thomasville, viz A Stock
Farm for the purpose of breeding and
shipping improved stock. They are only
prepared to furnish the Chester hogs at
present, but their object and purpose are
! to supply improved Fowls, Cattle and Sheep
by the coming Spring. The Stock they
| have is warranted to be as good and pure
as the United States affords. Some of it
was on exhibition at the lato Henderson
Fair, and received the FIRST premium.
We regard this enterprise as a most i'm
portant step in the right direction and can
! not too earnestly commend Messrs. Jen-
kins snd Skiles for inaugurating it. Let
| our farmers and others at once give it a
helping hand. The introduction If supe-
riOr stock on all Our farms will be a new
source OF wealth and improvement that
will tell on the general prosperity.
