Mrs. Boyd, a graduate of
Elizabethtown College and a
former elementary school
teacher, hopes to teach in
Korea during the time her hus
band is employed there.
Following his last Korean
visit, Boyd delivered talks to
many county groups. The mon
ey he received for these talks,
some $6OO, was invested in a
4-H hog • bank • program for
Korea, similar to the Sear’s

Lancaster County Future Farm

Boyd combines the qualities
of a good farm background
and education and training at
the college level. He gradu

earned his master’s degree in

to these qualifications are a

Dairy Scientist
Values Mature
Equivalent Data
The accuracy of comparing
milk production from cows o t
different ages can be improved
by analyzing the records ot
the Dairy Herd Improvement
Association (DHIA), a U,S.
Department of Agriculture sci
entist reported recently.
Dr Ben McDaniel, dairy cat
tle geneticist of USDA’s Ag
ricultural Research Service,
said that to keep age differ
ences from confusing DHIA
records, yearly milk and but
terfat production of all cows
has been statistically standard
ized at a so-called “mature
equivalent ” This represents
the estimated production of a
cow about 6 to 8 years old.
Mature-equivalent production
records are an important tool
for evaluating the genetic ca
pacity of young bulls to up
grade a herd, McDaniel said
at the annual meeting of the
American Dairy Science As
sociation in Corvallis, Ore.
A bull is evaluated by check
ing the record of his daughters
against that of other cows in
the same herd This usually
means comparing cows of vari
ous ages. To correct this varia
tion, age correction factors
were developed in 1954 and re
fined after several years’ ac
cumulation of data.
McDaniel said that errors in
calculating mature-equivalent
production may also be caused
by the change in seasons, the
differences between regions,
and the independent variation
of milk and butterfat pi educ
tion.
A long-suspected seasonal
diffeience in the adjustment
necessaiy for a heifer to ar
rive at hei matuie equivalent
was proved statistically by Mc-
Daniel He found that heifers
freshening in summer requued
less conection than cows first
starting to produce milk m
winter
Regional variations also
cause eirors in currently used
conection factors because pro
duction difterences between
some areas are greater foi ma
tuie cows than for 2-year-olds.
McDaniel added that a cow’s
fat production rises more slow
ly from year to year than her
milk pioduction, causing errors
in mature-equivalents because
both production rates have
been adjusted with the same
ratios Future calculations will
be done with separate ratios.
McDaniel believes that his
new findings can be pro
grammed into the DHIA com
puter by autumn
