Overview

Excerpt from History of Jersey Farm Dairy, San Bruno, Cal This dairy was established in 1875, by R. G. Sneath, a merchant, farmer and banker, whose long experience in the city and country led him to believe that the introduction of a pure, wholesome and rich country milk would be appreciated by the people of San Francisco, and that a large and profitable business might be built up in the course of time that would be a credit to himself, a great humanity to the people, and an honor to the State. He purchased about acres of fine grass land, lying about four miles south of the city limits, and reaching nearly from the Bay of San Francisco to the ocean. He has seeded about acres into rye, and cook's-foot grasses, that are perennial, which now supports about head of stock; and when the whole place is cultivated, which he expects to do immediately, it will keep in fine con dition about head.
