The secret of “how to make farming pay” as solved at Outseats many years ago, as the present owner will tell you, Mr. Nix considers farming a business, pure and simple, and says that whoever takes up the profession must conduct it on business lines. In the Outseats shire-horse stud nothing but the best is kept. And the best is produced. This is the secret. John Camm Nix was born in September 1843 at Bothamsall, Nottinghamshire. His father was Adam Nowell Nix and his mother Elizabeth Camm. Like many children born at the time he inherited his second given name of Camm from his mother. The Nix family of Alfreton were well-known. Jacob Snell (portrayed by Peter Mullan; seasons 1-2) [6] is the crime boss of Osage Beach. He is an established local heroin producer; his family has supplied and produced heroin in the area since the Great Depression. He is married to Darlene Snell, who is also his business partner. They have a strong bond, which is tested when they go into business with the Byrdes. Eventually, the two have a falling out, with Jacob planning to kill Darlene over a disagreement in what direction to take their business, before Darlene finds out and kills Jacob first. He was the only child on the estate to pass the 11-plus at that time and showed his “genius for numbers” at an early age. Moore, Camille (16 April 2020).

He was the first recipient of the Institute of Agricultural Management National Award (1982) and the recipient of the inaugural Agricultural Communicators Award (1999). My opinion,’ said he, ‘is that they cannot have shire horses without hair. It’s a very easy matter to get rid of it, if desirable, but it will take away part of the animal’s beauty. We cannot get gtreat horses without some nice hair, and people who go in for shows encourage this sort of thing. It is natural for all great horses to have plenty of hair, and I consider it a great adornment. If horses have good feet, plenty of fine quality bone and good flat legs they will never get too much hair, but these kind of horses which will produce sufficient hair of good quality. It is the round legs which get too much hair.’ In 1911 the Derbyshire Courier printed a series of articles which were titled “Derbyshire Farms and Farmers”, each of which concentrated on a particular farm of note and featured an interview with the farmer. Article No.3 of the series was written about Outseats Farm and John Nix, who had, by then, been the tenant farmer for over forty years. It contained details of the farm and also of the Shire Horses owned by John at the time. The full transcription of this long article, published on 25th February 1911 follows: She added: “He was loved and deeply respected by generations of students, by fellow academics and throughout the agricultural industry, to which he contributed so much during his long and illustrious career.”

My grandfather took the farm off Mr. Palmer-Morewood, said Mr. Nix, and I succeeded my uncle, the late Mr. Thos. Nix. There are a number of my uncles entries In the very earliest studbooks’. A fellow of the Institute of Agricultural Management, Royal Agricultural Society of England and the Royal Society of Arts, he received at least two lifetime achievement awards. Some farmers,’ said Mr. Nix, ‘are ruled by the price they pay for a sire; with them it is not the question of the horse, but a question of the price paid. This is deplorable, but I am pleased to think that all farmers do not view this in the same light, for some of the very best horses in England have been bred by the small farmer. Old farmers say that they can breed from anything, but that is a great mistake. It is as the Duke of Portland said: “You cannot get a silk purse from a sow’s ear.”’ It was at Cambridge he turned his talent for numbers into a practical management tool. Flourishing career In making Professor Nix the recipient of its lifetime achievement award, Farmers Weekly described him as “the pioneer of benchmarking in British agriculture”.

He becomes good friends with Charlotte. He gets into college, but after learning that Ruth killed Russ, instead of attending, he moves in with Darlene Snell in exchange for doing work on her farm land.

THE FUNERAL – The remains were interred in the family vault in Alfreton Churchyard (by permission of the Home office) on Tuesday afternoon [this is a mistake in the newspaper as John was interred on Wednesday 14th September 1927) in the presence of a large congregation. The Reverend I H de Cas (vicar) officiated, and was assisted by the Rev, R E Birtwhistle (vicar of Somercotes). At the wish of the late gentleman, the coffin was borne on a farm waggon drawn by two of his favourite Shire mares. The coffin, which was of plain oak, with brass fittings bore the inscription: Planning for the year and thinking about capturing the opportunities whilst mitigating the risks is vital in these particularly uncertain times.” Mr. Nix remarked to me that in his opinion nothing in the farming industry paid better than horse breeding, especially amongst the small farmers. His advice to all farmers wishing to take up this work is: Begin in a small way, but, above all things, start with “good ones.” He contends that the days of haphazard and chance are over, and the man who adopts farming as a profession must ever keep in view that it is a business pure and simple. But there is no way, he considers, in which a farmer can combine pleasure and profit better than by breeding and rearing. A mistaken notion seems to exist in some quarters that it is a very costly business to go in for this kind of work, but, says the Outseats farmer, there is no need whatever to o to any great expense in it. His further advice is ‘Secure the best blood.’ And when one comes to think about it, it takes no more to keep a good horse than it does to keep a bad one, whereas the difference in results is beyond calculation. Placing Professor Nix’sdeath announcement in the Daily Telegraph, his wife Sue described him as a treasured husband, very dear father, grandfather and friend.
