Clarence A. Miller, a splendid example of the modern type of farmer, 
was born in Lynden township, July 23, 1883, on the homestead where 
he still resides.  His parents were Daniel D. and Harriet (Dawson) 
Miller.  He attended the district schools and learned farming from 
his father.  While still a young man living with his parents, he 
bought eighty acres in section 20, adjoining the homestead, and by 
hard work and untiring effort cleared and grubbed it, and brought 
it to a high stage of cultivation.  On his father's death he also 
came into possession of the homestead, so that he now has a fertile 
farm of 160 acres, where he successfully carries on general farming.  
He is of the progressive type, and aims to follow the most modern 
methods of agricultural science.  He has erected a new barn and 
outbuildings, and is now planning a modern residence.  He is 
especially interested in good stock and he is well started toward 
a full blooded herd of cattle and drove of swine.  Mr. Miller is 
constable of the township.  He and his wife are justly popular among 
their many friends and neighbors, and their home is one of the most 
hospitable to be found in Lynden.  Mr. Miller was married, December 
5, 1911, to Jennie Heaton, daughter of Homer T and Ida M. (Slatterly) 
Heaton.
