OLD VIRGINIA'S ENTERPRISE.
While the year just closed has been
one of marked enterprise and progressiveness,
it is extremely doubtful
if any State in the Union has made
greater strides in that respect than
old Virginia. In no field of endeavor
is this more consistently illustrated
than in the live stock and agricultural
industries of this State.
Undoubtedly the most influential
movement for improving the live stock
interests of Virginia inaugurated the
past year was the organization of a
company for that particular purpose.
This organization is styled "The Virginia
Stock Farm Company, Inc.," and
has its principal office and establishment
at Bellevue, Bedford County, Va.
In reality, this company is a "State
Live Stock Improvement Society," as
it is formed for the purpose of improving
the live stock in Virginia by
propogating and having for general
distribution at reasonable prices
standard types of the particular
breeds best adapted to the practical
purposes of the farmers and stockmen
of Virginia. This company is
organized and incorporated with an
authorized capital of $100,000. The
officers and directors are experienced
breeders of influence, several of them
being gentlemen of national reputation,
while all are exceptionally well
qualified for the offices they hold, as
may be seen from the following:
President, Col. James P. Woods, Roanoke,
Va. ; Vice-President, Hon. Henry
Fairfax, Aldie, Loudoun County, Va.;
Secretary, Edward C. Burks, Bedford
City, Va.; Treasurer, John Victor,
Lynchburg, Va.; General Manager, J.
