Chain Calf Awarded by Manheim FFA
Ruby Cinder, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs Robert Cinder,
Elizabethtown RD3, received the
Manheim FFA Chapter chain
calf last week.
Each year the Manheim
Chapter presents a calf to a
member of the freshmen class.
To apply for the calf, students
must write an essay covering the
management practices of raising
a calf from birth to two years of
age Ruby Cinder was selected to
receive the calf by a committee
of Chapter officers who judged
her application to be the best
among those submitted from the
freshman class
The calf is valued at over $4OO
Ruby plans to show the calf at the
Manheim Farm Show in October
and other area dairy shows
The first female calf born from
this animal must be returned to
Milk Plays Role
In Man's Diet
Milk’s most valuable con
tributions to your diet are
calcium, protein, riboflavin and
vitamin A,
Irene Turner, nutrition
specialist at Louisiana State
University says that dairy foods
supply one of the highest quality
proteins available. Milk protein
is easily digested and contains all
of the eight essential amino
acids
Most diets which don’t include
dairy products provide in
sufficient calcium Strong bones
and teeth, and nerve stability are
the result of adequate calcium in
the diet
Milk is an excellent source of
riboflavin, vitamin 82, reminds
Sidney E Barnard, Extension
dairy specialist at The Penn
sylvania State University. It
provides more than 50 percent of
that present in our food supply.
Whole milk also supplies vitamin
A Since it is a fat soluble
vitamin, skim milk contains very
little vitamin A
Barnard suggests you balance
the vitamins and minerals
needed in your diet against the
calories they contribute The
calorie content of milk is low to
the calcium and riboflavin it
contributes. A cup of whole milk
contributes only eight percent of
the calories needed by a young
mother However, this eight
ounces of milk provides 37 per
cent of her daily calcium needs.
