NEW ENTERPRISE.
Another Smoking Tobacco Factory in
Henderson-Mr. Owen Davis the
Proprietor.

Another new enterprise has Just been
added to the manufacturing industries of
| henderson. 1t is a smoking tobacco fac
| tory where all grades of plug cut and
| graduated goods will be manufactured
| The proprietor is Mr.. Owen Davis, the
well known warehOuseman and leaf dealer,
saying which is sufficient guarantee that
the business will be properly conducted
| and success assured. The factory is
| under capable management, Mr.. Thomas
| Caillgan, OF Richmond, Va, a thoroughly
| competent and experienced manufacturer,
| being superintendent. He comes highly
recommended as a man who is not only
| perfectly cOnversant with the business in
all its details, having had % years ex-
| perlence, but as a careful and systematic
manager and fine executive officer as
well, and under his direction everything
may be expected to run smoothly and
none but the best class of goods put up.
The factory Is we'll equipped with the
! latest and most improved machinery and
work Is in active progress. While it is
not yet being operated to its full capacity
as will be done IL little later when every
thing Is got in proper shape, already %
hands are employed and this number
will be increased. Their leading brands
will be "Mystic,' (yranulated) some
thing fine and fancy: PEARSON G5be,
(plug cut; and Clean Track" (gran-
ulated); STARTER, (granulated mixture)
put up i'll pound package glass jars.
Besides these they will make several other
brands, the names OF which have not yet
! been decided upon. The stock from
which these goods are made is all four
years Old (guarantced sweet and rich
in natural flavor, and makes one of the
finest smokes to be had. There is no
biting of the tongue, so competent
Judges tell us, and if they do not spring
into popular favor wherever introduced
1t will bot be Tor want OF native excellence
and superior manipulation, certainly.
| This market is admirably adapted to
business of this kind. The tObaccos sold
here are the finest to be had for purposes
of plug cut and granulated With these
advantages in his favor together with
ample capital, Il we'll fitted establish
ment and experienced man in charge Mr.
Davis embarks in his new enterprise
under the most favorable auspices and
we predict nothing short of the highest
and most gratifying success to crown his
undertaking. The GOLD LEAF notes with
pride and satisfaction the inauguration
of this new enterprise. 1t affords employ
ment for Il class of people the avenues of
self-support for which are rather re-
stricted. The work being light women
and children are mostly employed, and
| at remunerative wages.
| Perhaps it is well to add that engaging
as IA manufacturer will in no way inter
fere with Mr.. Davis warehouse business
| He will continue to conduct that as here
tofOre, giving it the same personal
attention, with this difference only, he
proposes to work harder than ever in the
interest of his patrons. He simply puts
money into Il factory and secures the
| services of Il man to attend to it for
him. This will open up a wider market
and create greater demand for the class
of tobacco that enters into the goods
manufactured and consequently makes
the proprietor a more active buyer
Thus the market and the farmers that
support it will be benefited in the same
proportion.
