Clyde T. Nelson, manager of "Eminence" a splendid stock farm of 230 acres in Palestine Township, a few miles northeast of Bunceton, is a native son of Cooper County who is making good as a breeder of Shorthorn cattle and Duroc Jersey hogs. The Nelson farm lands are operated by Nelson Brothers who have achieved more than a local reputation as stockmen in this section of Missouri. The Duroc Jersey herd was established in 1898 and the breeding of these fine animals has continued for the past 30 years with success. The leader of the Duroc drove is a boar bred by McKee Brothers of Versailles, Ky. This drove numbers 150 head of pure breds. The Shorthorn herd registers 12 head of animals.
