some of you ladies read thus far, don’t go away. There's one interesting bit of ro- mance in this yarn. I think you'll iike tt.

Dairying came © naturally te Lincoln. His grandfather, Robert Dewar, -kept dairy eattle; Lincoln’s father was John A. Dewar and he was

P.F.1. Dairymen’s Associa- tion. He also~- helped organ- ize the New Perth dairy company that ran.a factory close to Bargate Farm, as the place is known now. FOUNDING OF HERD

The real foundation cow of the Holstein herd,- Marshfield Pluto Maxine, was purchased from George Lilly, Marshfield about 1940. She was a daughter of Abegweit Maximus “get"’ had taken first’ place at the Royal Winter Fair a few years previously. by J. Walter Jones, was in herd of Walter Buntain and Son,

Rustico for some years it’s

Roland -Buntain now. ; Maximus had the’ ability to,

sire unusually’ good dairy cows.

They were big cows, with lots. of

milk, and good udders.

But Maxine was her. When he saw her — she was not on Mr. Lilly’s farm at the time — two men were work- ing with her. One held her, by a ring in her nose, while the other tried to milk-her.

Lincoln sensed the cow could he handled, paid’ $175 for her —

and that was’a long price at the:

an tA

time and told’ the man ‘take cer back if she —dvesn't work out for me.’’ Maxine’ stav- ed in the Dewar herd for 10. vears. She became a 2-Star brood cow —. she had-~splendid daughters. One graded Excel- lent. two others were Very Good, , the second’ highest classification. There were no further plir- chases until some vears later. Lincoln and’ Chester LeLacheur were diving through the~ For- tune district’ when their -know-:

ledgeable eyes spied. a beautiful Holstein cow standing on the top of a small hummock.. The ani- mals shape could be seen

They deemed her an ‘‘excel- lent’ cow, and the grader agreed when he» .came. a. few days later. Lincofn bought the

' cow: she was the only “excel- lent’’ cow in the Maritimes that vear. She was DeKol Beauty Nancy, a daughter of Abegweit Ringer. ‘

Nancy was 12 years old at

_ the time, a daughter was eight and there was also a

bull calf, Prince * Fortiiie,

with unusually good breed-

for me yesterday. j

Mr,. Dewar sold_her to Mr. | ‘Profitt for $180 and that ‘twas one of my best sales’’,, Mr. De- war recalled. The reason was that the prices were so low in the depression. Lincoln sold plenty for from $35 to $40. And I | recall people telling me of good Brade cows selling -for-$10-to $12 ‘in thessame period:

But here’s the big sale that Lincoln never will for- get — there is a reason.

One of the first—pure- bred heifers brought to” the’ New Perth’ herd Jewel Roch- arm — she was purchased from Miss Hope Jardine, a 4-H Club member, though

‘they had a different name then — produced a beautiful heifer, Jewel Olympus Pon- tiaec. 4

Mr. Dewar entered her in the-Royal_Brentwood sale at Onomocwoc, Wisconsin. The sale average was $350 — and they -were top notch cattle — but the Jewel hel- | fer sold for the large price of $700 — she went to Chile.

But the real. reason. Lin- coln will never forget this sale is that he needed the money for a most unusually guod reason. Later that year — it was in 1940 — he mar-

ried Lols'~ Jones, daughter © of Mr. and Mrs. J. Walter Jones, Bunbury. Mr. Jones

became premier in 1943 and Senator in 1953 he was the man who developed the Abegweit herd to which re- ference is made here on se- ’ veral occasions, A FEW RECORDS I’m running out of Space so T’ll have to cut this short, but! -here are some of the individual records -established at Bargate Farm: , t Bargate Mary Lloyd 125,000 plus for.a blue seal record, The
