The Farm
The cash crop grown on the farm was hemp. Merino sheep and six other species of European livestock were imported and bred on the farm. Clay's record book of his breeding operation, including the Herefords which he introduced, is now displayed at Ashland.

Famous quotes containing the word farm:
“Farm policy, although it’s complex, can be explained. What it can’t be is believed. No cheating spouse, no teen with a wrecked family car, no mayor of Washington, DC, videotaped in flagrante delicto has ever come up with anything as farfetched as U.S. farm policy.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“I farm a pasture where the boulders lie
As touching as a basketful of eggs....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
