A. and G. Kidder, the great hog breeders of Fulton county, reside adjoining the town of Farmington, where they settled in 1845 -- upon section 2,8 north, 4 west. A view of their residence will be seen elsewhere. They have, without a doubt, some of the best breeds of hogs known. These gentlemen are well and favorably known, and by their neighbors are looked upon as model farmers, pleasant neighbors, and valuable citizens.
