All-American
Include Dairy
The Tenth Annual Penn
sylvania All-American Dairy
Show will be held at the Farm
Show, September 24 through 28,
under the joint sponsorship of the
Pennsylvania Dairy and Allied
Industries Association and the
Pennsylvania Department of
Agriculture.
The All-American is now
recognized as a full-fledged
member of the top circuit of
international dairy shows. In
recent years exhibitors from
more than half of the 50 states
and Canada are entered for each
show and at one time or another
virtually every state in the union
has been represented.
A new honor for the All-
American this year is the sanc
tioning of the Brown Swiss breed
show as the Eastern National
show of the Brown Swiss Cattle
Breeders’ Association. For a
number of years the Holstein-
Fnesian Association has
designated the All-American as
its Eastern National show.
Another highlight of the 1973
All-American will be the Dairy
Princess pageant. Thirty-three
young ladies, previously winners
of county Dairy Princess titles,
will compete for the crown to be
vacated by Princess Rose M.
