Murry, Drumore RDI, Pa. with Wissler Run Silver Tulip. Mr. Murry says: “I was particularly pleased with the success I had with Wayne Feeds because : In the Spring of 19711 was contacted by the Pennsylvania Holstein Association in regards to heifers m my herd that might meet the qualifications of their Holland project. The country of Holland had requested 40 Holstein heifers from the United States that would meet the following qualifications: 1. Calf must not be vaccinated for" brucellosis. 2. Born - February 1,1971 through June 30,1971. 3. Sire must have a plus proof on 50 daughters of more. 4 Dams records completed must average on anME basis at least 15,600 pounds milk. 5 If dam is classified, she must be at least 100 BAA. The calf Wissler Run Silver Tulip No, 7892993 met these qualifications through her dam Wissler Run Glen Lad Bubbles No. 5462014 V. G. 85, who to date has produced 132,479 pounds of milk and 4,454 pounds of fat and who was born August 29,1961 and has had 8 lactations. Her sire was Dee Ann Silver Tim No. 1435690 with 184 Plus Proven daughters. I was happy that my heifer qualified and was chosen for the Holland project and would like to say that I also have a herd of 33 Registered Holstein cows and 35 heifers of all ages. My DHIA record for the year ending September 30,1971 was 15,338 pounds milk with 3.8 per cent test and 587 pounds fat. My entire dairy herd is on the Wayne Feeding Program and needless to say I am well pleased with the results.” I PURCHASED WAYNE FEEDS FROM POWL'S FEED SERVICE PEACH BOTTOM, PA.
