Dr. Harrington Receives
lindback Award for Teaching
Dr. Joseph D. Harrington,
professor of agronomy at The
Pennsylvania State University,
was awarded the university’s
highest award for teaching
during graduation exercises June
16. Dr. Harrington received one
of two Christian R. and Mary F.
Lindback Awards for
Distinguished Teaching
including $l,OOO and a plaque.
Dr. Harrington first came to
Penn State in 1953 as a candidate
for a master’s degree, after
earning his bachelor of science
degree in agronomy from the
University of Maryland. He
received both his master and
doctor of philosophy degrees in
agronomy at Penn State.
Appointed an assistant
professor in 1959, the Washington
D.C. native has done research in
the management of white
potatoes, largely for processing
purposes.
Dr. Harrington teaches un
dergraduate courses in crop
management and field and
forage crop production. He
makes wide use of special
materials such as slides and tape
recording to supplement his
instruction and recently
prepared a 115-page laboratory
manual for students in his course
on principles of crop
management. The book is sold to
his students at cost
While most four-year students
in the general field crops course
come from within the College of
Agriculture, Dr. Harrington’s
classes do attract un
dergraduates majoring in such
diverse fields as psychology,
zoology, insurance and real
estate, and education.
Good teaching means self
dedication to others, Dr.
Harrington believes, and he has a
high regard for young people and
“their eager, bright minds.”
Although effective teaching
varies in its methods and
techniques, learning is abetted,
he points out, when knowledge is
presented simply and

Facts For Dairymen
(Continued From Page 18)
may be mixed but the container
should be emptied and washed
clean once a month. This would
suggest using at least two 20-30
gallon plastic garbage cans as
fermenting pots. Indications are
that sour colostrum will keep
safely for one month.
4. Store in a cool location. Do
not refrigerate and do not set
container in hot sun. Protect
from flies.
5. Milk must be stirred well
prior to each feeding to mix the
curds and whey.
6. Calves may be fed fresh or
sour colostrum from birth. If
allowed to nurse the cow for two
or three days they can be swit
ched to sour colostrum
7. A feeding schedule for dairy
replacements is one pound of
colostrum to each 10 pounds of
bodyweight. Maximum amount
fed to a calf should be limited to
eight to 10 pounds daily.
8. Provide grain and hay from
one week of age and additional
water as needed.
9 Sour colostrum is not a
substitute for good management
practices!
