Long and Sons farm, located about one mile off the Saluda highway, about eight miles from Newberry. Mr. H. O. Long, well known and be loved citizen of the county, died in March of 1954. The home place, which he helped his parents build about 65 years ago, is now occupied by his widow and one of his sons, B. Osborne Long and family. Ajnother home on the 1350 acre farm is occupied by the other son, John Grady Long, superintendent of the Silverstreet Area Schools, and Mrs. Long. Mr. and Mrs. B. O. Long have three children, Don, who finished Newberry college last year and is now with the U. S. army in Germany; Bobby, who attended Newbery col lege, and Betty, a 10th grade student at SiDerstreet high school. Mr. and Mrs. John Grady Long have three daughters, one in Columbia, one in West Virginia, and another, Mrs. Angus Senn, who lives ih Silverstreet. Bobby Long, who vtforked with his grandfather on the farm from the time he was a lad, took over management after his grandfather’s death. The main business of the farm is raising beef cattle for sale to local markets. There are presently about 330 cat tle of various kinds on the farm, mostly Herefords. Hogs are also raised in quantity and all of the feed for the livestock is grown on the farm, which is highly mechanized and follows Soil Conservation Service practices. The late Mr. Long was one of the first farm ers in the county to become a cooperator w ith the SCS, back in 1931 when the Service was just beginning work in Newberry. The farm ponds, year-round pasture lands and other lands under cultivation show the results of the work done by Mr. Long in past years. Some cotton is grown on the farm ani about 600 acres are devoted to timber. The Longs are all members of the Lutheran church at Silverstreet, and belong to the Newberry County Farm Bureau. Mrs. B. O. Long is public school music teacher for the Silverstreet area. i The farm has been in the Long family for over 100 years. Mr. B. O. Long recalls that when he was a boy. cotton and timber were the principal crops, and at that time, there were 24 mules to carry on the heavy work. Now there are no mules and cotton is only a sideline to cattle. The late Mr. Long first introduced beef cattle on the farm in the early 1930s and the size of the operation has grown steadily since that time.
