SUNRISE FARM HOME OF A FA-
NOUS HOLSTEIN HERD
VIII BE Made Modern in Every Re.
spect

The old John Swain place was oc-
cupied for a good many years by his
son Shepherd II. Swain. Among
others who lived on the farm were
s. II and W. B. Bradbury, a family by
the name of Wiley. Parker Sanborn
and Harry Whittemore, who sold it
to Bin W Page in December, 1917.
There are 1877 acres bordered mostly
on south and west by the Wesserun-
set stream. The place was carried
on for one year by Harry J. White
more who was succeeded in the man
agement In November 1918 by Bales
A. Spaulding. Mr. Spaulding who
was employed in town by Mr.. Page,
spent a greater part Of the year work
ing at the farm and during this time
a good deal of rebuilding was done.
One Of the important construction
projects was concrete tie-up under
the large barn which is AZ by log
feet. This is fitted with two rows
OF swing stanchions which, including
the pens, will accommodate forty
head of cattle. The equipment in
cludes an individual drinking cup for
each animal. litter carrier pro-
vides means for taking out the dress
Ing, which is dumped in a concrete
manure pit.
Among the live stock, Holsteins
hold the favorite place. OF this
breed there are II head of pure breds.
The first foundation stock came from
the Famous Beyers, farm near Port

land. Subsequently an important
purchase was made at the Kelsey
ranch in Lexington, Mass. This ami
NAL was two years old at the time of
purchase, the price paid being $50.
Her name is Queen Pontiac Mendon,
Her sire was New Pontiac King and
he came from King Of the Pontiac and
Joannah Ormsby. Queen Pontiac's
dame was Mendon Tletertie Korndike.
There are great butter producers in
this ancestry. Her first calf was
dropped February 28th, 1918. The
sire was Sir Veenam Hengeveld Vale
to which the dame had been bred be-
fore leaving the Kelsey ranch. Her
second calf was dropped April Dist,
1919. the sire being Prince Lyons Vic
torie, the bull at the head OF Sun
rise" farm herd. The one last nam
ed was raised by J. W. Prentice &
Son. Allsted, n. II. Another import
ant individual of this herd Is Belle
Luella bought OF d. C. Buxton. Mid
dletown Springs, Vt. for 5000. She
has produced two males, one OF which
is now owned by Frank Parker in
the Beech Hill neghborhood and the
other by George +. Clough OF the
Lakewood road Among the younger
stock is Joannah King Segis Udena.
This one came from G. G Burlingame
OF Cazenovia, New York. Other
Somerset County farmers who have
purchased males at Sunrise" farm
are Charles Whittemore OF Skowhe
gan and David B. Viles of Madison.
There are eight oxen on the farm
three pair OF Herefords four years old
which are being raised for beef; one
pair OF mixed breed, Durham and Hol-
stein. three years old.
There are four horses at the farm,
one pair OF Percherons. recently
bought (black) four and five years old
and another draft animal and one
driver
A large amount of the work at the
farm this year has been done by a
Cleveland Tractor bought late in the
fall OF 1918. In working with this
machine double load is always
planned on, two plows or two har-
rows, and there is ample room for
even more implements. IL they could
be hooked up for advantage. An
acre an hour is about the program st
blowing where the land lays at all
right for tractor work.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE
MAIL COMES"


We live on a good sized farm in
central Somerset and keep herd OF
cows, a few steers, flock of sheep, a
number of hogs and some horses. be-
sides a poultry branch conducted by
the women folks. We also have va
rious pieces of farm machinery and
try to do all our work that's possible
without hired help, SO are kept pref
ty busy.
We are unfortunate enough to be
a mile and half from a mail route;
bue we have a daily, a farm paper,
various magazines and The Indepen-
dent Reporter
During the war we made special
effort to receive our mail every day,
but at other times II we are more
busy then common it is oftentimes the
middle OF the week before we go to
the mail box. BY then Mother will
say "Do your chores up early and go
and get the mail, the Reporter comes
today"
Upon its arrival, one member OF the
family takes that paper from which
they read aloud any items OF more
than general Importance, while the
others scan the headings and glance
over the rest OF the mail while await
ing their turn.
II mother reads she perhaps speaks
Of the locals or the doings OF the Red
Cross or other societies, or perhaps
lays down the paper with laugh and

me it seems almost like being at home
1t is like q companion 1t comes
about three o'clock in the afternoon
and il is almost always prompt about
being ON time. ! watch for the post
man to come with it. and get all
dressed up TO read it. just as though
| were going 10 have company. 1t
seems almost like tea party when
the Reporter comes | read the Show
began locals first, then the news from
the other towns nearby, where there
are people | know, then ali the rest
of the paper BY reading it, | hear
from my friends a good many that

per: hear from them when they
have not time to write and they hear
from me when | have not time to
write them. When | send the paper
away. it is like sending q longer let

I sent the Reporter to Clinton almost
all last winter, each week after read
ing. and now | mail it to Massachu-

to friend in Boston. Whey my
husband was living he used to say III

he enjoyed it.

ascertain that instead of supplying
ourselves with all the conveniences

The foregoing striking statement

can not earn enough to provide for all

A letter was received from another
