New Feed Mill.
Operation of the new feed mill
of Messrs. A. N. Brown and H. B.
Carmichael was begun the past
week and is turning out an excel
lent product in accordance with
modern enterprise.
The establishment of this feed
mill can but result in great bene
fit to Henry county, and its enter
prising promoters will surely re
ceive due appreciation from the
patrons they serve.
As has been so widely and per
sistently urged, in spite of sensa
tional prices for cotton, first of all
the supreme importance is raising
sufficient food crops.
These feed milis utilize varieties
of products, thus providing self
sustenance and filling a long-time
need.
The new mill is located on the
former plant of the Carmichael
Lumber Co. near the Southern
depot, and is now open for free
and‘full inspection.
Go out, look through and be
convinced of its usefulness.
