A Hen Farm.
A new and needed enterprise in

This is nil enterprise which wo
believe will pay and pay well. Dur
iug this entire saiinn.r hens and
•/Re have been selling at enormous¬
ly high figum—high for a large
city ; and ridiculously high for an iu
eerier town like Thomesville, situ»t*
•d Aflp midst of a fine country.
SrnvrAixod chickens have command¬
ed about 25 cents apivco right
fclraijjht aloog, while full grown
havo been cteadily held at, 35 and
even 40 cents. Egg* have been
equally as aburdly high, for only
vrnek they ware 35 cents a dozen.and
•t this moment they cannot be
bought lor less Ilian 30 cants. These
I’ricas would be considered high

J.S. JONES,
Staple and Fancy
Dry Goods,
into AD STREET
Columbus, Georgia.
SIMON PUIIK MERIT,
From the Colnmtms Enquirer.
We have repeatedly stated that
‘niong the roost prominent, experi
nced an I thoroughly posted mer
chants in the dry goods business in
Columbus, Mr. J. S. Jones stands
•ouspictious. The almost phenomi
mil success with which be has met in
plea ’ll^ the fancy of the public is
largely attributable to I ho fact that
he fully understand* their needs,taste
'ti l notions, whether they he whim
steal or otherwise, and a* lie makes
it a point to be able to su.t ull his
customers,he keeps an immense stock
■ li all the various lines of the dry
goods trude No lady can loots at
his dry goods without finding the nr
licle for which sbo is in search, if it
he in dress goods. He has colored
velveteens, plain and brocaded,which
lie sells at 75c and $1 per yard; black
50c, 75c, $1, $1 50. He has all shades
m the richest plain nud cut velvets
from $1 50 to JG pur yard. And thot,
in silks his stock and assortment nr<
such that it cannot he excelle 1 in the
city. Iu this line he has elegant grn
grain and rhadame si kg in black and
colors; eh g.int white rep silks, ele
g"Ut baoca led silks and any kind o'
silk desired. His worstc 1 dress goods
commences at 10c and 15c and em¬
braces all the prices—say 25c, 35-.
50c, 00c, 75c, $1, $1.25, $1 50 and $2
Among these goods may ho fonn I
all the new fabrics such as billiard
cloths, cashmeres, bison cloths, si>r
ges, tricots, dingonels, drop datum-;
his whaitean clotlmjsix quarters wide,
are just what the la lies’ tailor suits
are made of which are so popular in
New York.
The truth is the lira* of dress good
in this popnlai establishment cannot
be excelled nuiwuero iu this section.
We cannot beg n to enumerate the
various articles he 1ms iu dress goods
hut wc can recommend to the Indies
his attractive styles and advise them
to go and see for themselves. No la
dy should make her fall ami wiut, r
purchases until she lias seen these
goods and obtuined his prices.
But Mr Jones dobs not confine all
his time and talents to the ladies,
llie gentlemen uml boys are by no
minus overlooked. In bis stock siv
a full line of cassimeres, jeans, and
men’s tine imported suitings. Among
the latter are the latest style iu ding
onels, corkscrew, etc. He also has
the famous eider-down sackings. He
has a very large line of flaunt Is and
blankets from the great auction sale
and will bo sold out at most nvauta
geons prices. In geut’s furnishing
goods he keeps everything in the way
of shirts, drawers, socks, ties, hand¬
kerchiefs and anything that a gentle¬
man may find useful or oramental
One who looks into these goods will
s< e that special attention has been
paid this department.
While his stock in all the various
lines is very attractive indeed, he will
offi-r additional indncemi nta to the
trpde. He will oflt r to ch.se a large
lot of gents’ eo ored shirts nt the nni
form prices of 75 cents, which lie Las
been selling at $1, $1 50, and $1.75.
The cause of this ixtraoidicary cut
in price is that this particular line of
goods will not he made any more and
he cannot, therefore, keep them in
stock. This being the case, he lifts
determined to close them oat at a
very great sacrifice.
In this popu'ar establishment all
the departments are well sustaiuded.
He has a beautiful line of chenille and
silk fringes, braids, button-, and an
endless variety of novelties. He cor¬
dially invites all parties to call and
inspect his stock, as it is no trouble
for him to show his goods. He is one
of the live merchants who takes much
pleasure in pleasing his customers
and seeing that they are properly
waited upon. His clerks are all
courteous, affable and polite, as well
as attentive. His motto is to make
one sale advertise another and to do
his the goods are sold at prices that
defy comptdion. J.S Jones , . IB
