He assisted his father on the home farm until attaining his majority, when he leased a farm in the neighborhood and began farming on his own account. He next purchased a farm in Turin and operated it for about eight years, after which he sold it and located anew in Greig, where he purchased a property lying along Black river, one mile east of Glenfield Village. On this farm he makes a specialty of scientific poultry raising and dairy farming. His herds are of the Jersey strain, while his poultry raising is upon a very extensive scale. He is modern in his methods, uses all the scientific aids that are now at the command of the progressive farmer in whatever line he specializes, and is securing satisfactory results from both branches of his business. In poultry fancying and dairying Mr. Case is regarded as an authority.
