In an effort to attain greater economic independence, the province of Nova Scotia is urging its farmers to increase their livestock production to "satisfy" the demands of the home market. When this goal is attained, economists predict it will be equivalent to the creation of 200 new industries with an annual income of $100,000 each. Burnthorn Cox Farm, with its herd of 115 Purebred Short Horn cattle is considered one of the best livestock farms of the Province. Its pasture land, with Cape Blomidon in the background, is ideally located.

At 65, J. Burnthorn Cox is as active as ever on his farm, and justly proud of his purebred cattle. His family was the first one to settle in the Kingsport area; after operating a ship-building business, they turned to farming once the land had been cleared and have stayed at it since.
