were all Campbell needed to fill it works. I find out what kind of
his entire summer, which is silo unloader he’s got, the kind of
about 10 weeks long. In addition
to earning money, Campbell is
earning work credits toward his
degree at Delaware Valley.
Graduation requirements include
a total of 24 40-hour weeks of on
the-job experience for dairy
husbandry majors.
Potential relief milkers should
be absolutely certain they’re
familiar with all phases of a
dairyman’s operations, Campbell
noted. “Before I start the job, I

phase of dairy farming, perhaps
working as a herdsman. One
bonus that he’s getting from
relief milking is that he’s able to
view a lot of different operations
and try out a lot of different
equipment.

It wasn’t easy to get this far.
But where should you
go from here?
Twenty years ago it didn't seem possible that you'd achieve as
much as you have. But now that you've gotten this far, it's time
for new plans. You can't stand still. Yet there was never a greater
need for sound judgement, especially where credit is concerned.
That's why you should turn first to Farm Credit Service. Every
office is staffed with Farm Credit men who appreciate that your
financial needs are special. They know there are no routine
answers for your very individual problems. They work with you
to provide the money and assistance that will help you farm
better. Your loan is tailored to fit your unique needs.
Talk with your Farm Credit man. He knows what it took for you to
get this far. . .and what it will take to continue moving ahead.
