is the farm owned by Mrs B. Y.
Abrams, about five miles from
Newberry on the Belfast road. It
is being worked at present by
William E. Senn. who lives ad
jacent to the Abrams place.
Mrs. Abrams stated that her
husband, who passed away several
years ago. was born on the farm
which at one time belonged to
his grandparents. It has been
farmed since the time Mr. and
Mrs. Abrams moved there in 1902
and the 24!* acres is now devoted
mainly to dairy farming, cotton
and corn by Mr. Senn.
Mrs. Abrams is a member of
Smyrna Presbyterian church. She
has one daughter, Mrs. M. A.
Evans, of. Norfolk, Va.
Mystery Farm IS was the farm
of Jake E. Sense on the Mount
Bethel-Gurmany road and living
with Mr. Sease are his son, Rob
ert, Mrs. Robert Sease and their
daughter, Catherine, who is a
student at Newberry high school.
Mr. J. E. Sease purchased t h e
farm in 1911 from FJ enr y Parr but
it was originally the old Ben
Cannon place, father of the late
Dr. Olin B. Cannon and Henry
Cannon. Dr. Cannon was born in
a large house just across the road
from the Sease residence.
The Seases have remodeled the
home place and have built most
of the barns and outbuildings
since they moved on the farm in
1911. They are members of the
Associate Reformed Presbyterian
church in Newberry. They raise
mostly corn and oats, some hogs
and milk cows on the 110 acres.
Mr. Sease hopes to go into dairy
farming oji a larger scale some
time in the near future.

Dairyman Brown
Improves Herd
“There are two musts for me
in the dairy business,” said James
A. Brown, Newberry, route one.
"they are' Dairy Herd Improve
ment Association (DHIA) and ar
tificial breeding. He was being
interviewed by a team of Clem-
son College Extension Specialists
together with County Agent P. B.
Ezell in late October.
James is young in the dairy
business and has made great im
provement in his eroded farm
since he returned from World war
II. All improvements have been
provided by his dairy herd, sup
plemented by some custom work
performed for neighbors. He is
justifiably proud of his Grade A
milking barn that is kept im
maculate by the industrious Mrs.
Brown, but he knows that the one
factor which will make or break
him is the quality of his milk
cows and the management they
receive.
This young man is one farmer
w'ho does not guess about what
a cow Is doing or whether an in
dividual sired by the Clemson
bull' Stud is an improvement.
Rather, he refers to his DHIA
herd book and seems to know it
by heart. Production and net re
turns above feed costs have been
the principal guides in culling his
original assembled herd of grade
cattle. The same records have
been responsible for James’ high
opinion of his urtificaily sired
cows.
While .Mr. Brown still has not
been able to provide the insurance
* of silage for his herd, nor does
he have an adequate supply of
alfalfa —• two generally accepted
"musts” for Newberry dairymen,
he recognizes their worth and
will soon have them. Neverthe
less, the Brown herd of 15 cows
produced an average of 7,363
pounds of 4.7 per cent milk which
is over 200 pounds more than the
state average in DHIA in 1954.
Most of the cows are young—
many being heifers and capable
of at least a 30 per cent increase
when mature. This potential is
already being realized in the few
grown cows in the herd.
Two daughters of C 1 e m son
Homestead Rotarian, a Holstein,
averaged 10,235 pounds of 4.1 per
cent milk. One daughter of Lee’s
Hill Lucky Strike, a Brown Swiss,
produced 10,780 pounds of 3.9 per
oent milk; another Brown Swiss
cow by Clemson Dun Trusty was
milking 48 pounds per * day with
little grazing. Three first class
heifers which were three - way
crosses (Bown Swiss and Hol
stein on a Gurusey foundation,
had produced an average of 34.4
pounds of 4.1 per cent milk per
day for their first 115 days and
did it during the same dry un
favorable full period.
Examination of the hard record
book of Ed Freeman, Technician
of the Newberry Cooperative
Breeding Association showed that
the Brown herd is a healthy one
with an average conception rate
of 70 per cent plus. Asked about,
this, James Brown said "When
three or more services are re
quired, something Is wrong and a
man should find out."
it is very obvious that "Farmer
Brown" is the type who will find
out and he believes that with
these two Clemson college spon
sored services, he has the tools
to do the job,

Quints Are Not
Individuals
The story has ben told before—
in piecemeal fashinn. It is a story
with a moral. And it is the most
touching story of last year.
It is the tale ot" the Dionne
Quints, and it begins twenty-one
years ago.
Born into the humble home of
a Canadian farming couple, the
quints made front-page history by
the miracle of their survival.
From, that moment on, they
were an international sensation.
Their pictures were everywhere.
Their childish antics were filmed,
reported and wondered at.
Advertisers rushed to press
wealth into their tiny hands.
They were Canada’s premier ex
hibition piece and they won the
hearts of the world’s millions.
The money that poured into
their trust accounts made them
rich beyond their parents’ wild
est dreams.
But did all this international
acclaim, this fame and wealth,
bring happiness and content in
its train?
By no means. For two reasons
-one biological, one psychologi
cal.
Like all "identical" children,
born of a single egg,the quints
had a curiously close affinity.
They looked alike and every
thing conspired to emphasize
their identity.
Fame and fortune came to ffiem
not as individuals but only col
lectively. Together they were a
world-wide smash-hit. a universal
sensation. Singly they were of no
note whatever.
So much did they feel them
selves to he a part of one another
that when one of them—Marie—
decided to train as a nun. she
soon ha<i to give up her vocation.
She could not stand the strain
of being separated from her sis
ters.
The sombre sorority was u n-
broken with the passing years.
None married. None w’ore make
up or lipstick. None was reported
to have had boy friends.
It seemed that the links that
held them together were so strong
that the marriage of one would
he a threat to all.
Only Tears
As time went on. the shadows
lengthened. Early In the year,
Emilie died. But even death could
not break this closed circuit of
Identical sisterhood.
When the surviving sisters
reached their 21st birthday—each
came into a fortune of $260,000—
there was no Jollification, no care
free party.
Instead the girls walked togeth
er across the fields from their
home to the little cemetery a
A. P. Boozer
Rites Monday
Funeral services were held on
Monday for Alonzo Pinckney Boo
zer. Sr., a native of Newberry who
died Friday at the Jefferson Davis
hospital in Houston, Texas.
The services were conducted
at four o’clock at the home of
Mrs. George P. Haw kins, h i s
daughter, on the Winnsboro high-
way with interment in 'Colony
Lutheran church cemetery. Rev.
Thomas Suber officiating.
Mr. Boozer was born in New
berry county, the son of the late
William L. and Mary Ann Bailey
Boozer. For some years he was in
the grocery and saw mill business
here before moving to Texas.
He is survived by his wife. Mrs.
Rhoda Pearl Boozer; three daugh
ters, Mrs. George P. Hawkins of
Newberry, Mrs. J. R. Timmerman
of Dallas, N. C. and Mrs. James
E. Ringer of Walterboro; three
sons, A. P. Boozer, Jr., and John
Boozer, both of New^berry and Dr.
Albert M. Boozer of Dalton, Ga.;
one bother, W. D. Boozer of Kin-
ards; one sister. Miss Victoria
Boozer of Newberry; seven grand
children and two great - grand
children.

mile away, to stand weeping about
Emllle’s grave.
Before long, Annette and Marie
were in a hospital, sai<J to be com
plaining of the symptoms of the
disease from which their sister
had died epilepsy.
, Only a week ago, they w’pre
discharged. Physically well. .
Yet It is clear that the bonds
which held these unhappy young
sters together had not been part
ed without threatening to dag
Anette and Marie into the abyss.
It is all so pathetic. Especially
since, it need never have happen
ed. For. children of multiple births
•—even when they are identical—
CAN grow up to become people
In their own right.
The trouble with the quints was
that, from the first, they were
regarded as freaks of nature in
stead of normal people.
