Eastern Open Dairy Cattle Show
Proposed by Pennsylvania Dairymen
HARRISBURG A proposed
Pennsylvania eastern open all
breed dairy show today had the
endorsement of the Pennsylvania
Dairymen’s Association as au
thorized in resolutions adopted
at the final session of its annual
Farm Show meeting.
The association, J. O. Canby,
Langhorne, president, requested
appropriation of jieeded funds
to launch the show in 1958. The
resolution added; ‘The city of
Harrisburg, with its unexcelled
facilities for transportation,
housing and showing is the logi
cal location for a great eastern
dairy cattle show.'”
While sponsored and conduct
ed by Pennsylvania, the proposed
dairy exposition would be open
to any other state, and in this
respect would differ from the
dairy show at the Pennsylvania
Farm Show which admits dairy
entries from Pennsylvania only
Another resolution urged that
the state brucellosis eradication
program, now at clean
ing up dairy and beef cattle
herds, be extended to include
swine and goats.
“Hearty commendation” was
given the Pennsylvania Depart-

ment of Agriculture and the
State Brucellosis Committee for
their “notable accomplishment”
in the current brucellosis
(Bang’s disease) campaign.
State funds were requested
also to enlarge and staff ade J
quately the large animal veteri
nary science, research laboratory
at Pennsylvania State University.
“Present research and diagnostic
facilities are inadequate,” the
association declared.
Still other resolutions saluted-
One. Farm Show Manager John
B. McCool and his associates for
“improvement” of the show and r
for aiding exhibitors; two- Pres-'
'ident Canby, for “tireless devo
tion” to the association, often at
“the expense of his private in
terests”; /three- Charles^Cowan,
Lancaster,' association" secretary,
in recognition of a “task well
, done,” and four- the Ihter-State
Milk-l Producers Association, for
providing Cowan with "office
space. -
The gestation-period is usually
logger for the male young in cat
tle, horses, and posibly .sheep and
camels; for females, in man and
possibly guinea pigs.
