Brewsters' Millions succeeded be-
cause 1t presented such q good picture

was doubtful whether London would

While still in charge of the Bit
more Berkshire farm, Mr.. Gentry came
to Tennessee at the invitation of Mr..
Jesse M. Overton, who was, at that
time, an admirer and limited buyer
of pure bred stock. Mr.. Overton was
then and is now a whole-souled be-

strip of territory north and south as
the place for the development Of the

to be an indisputable fact. The coun-

Tennessee has more days of sunshine

manage Mr.. Overton's farm, and set
to work with an energy that was
bound to show results. In the space

nine were third, and two were fourth;
eleven were championship prizes, and
one was q grand championship prize.
With his Berkshires, Mr.. Gentry has
had an even greater measure OF sue
cess. He exhibited his Overton Farm

and during the year took 155 prizes.

of this marvellous record to himself
and his own ability as a breeder
and Snowman, but declares that with
the same painstaking care, day in and
day out, with the same attention to in
finite details; in short, by giving stock
breeding the same attention that is
given to the average business in all
