The meeting will center on
examining the advantages
the various “continental” or
“exotic” breeds have in feed
efficiency and rate of gain,
what crosses using these
breeds will be effective in
our area, availability of
crossbred feeder cattle,
managing and feeding new
of the
State
crossbreds, and carcass
quality and implications of
marketing crossbred cattle.
Dr. Wilson has done ex*
tensive research in many
areas of beef cattle
management including work
with crossing dairy-beef,
beef sire comparisons, ef
fects of zeranol and DES on
carcass quality, effects of
combinations of zeranol and
DES on efficiency and rate of
gain. He’s studied the use of
processing wastes from
apples in beef feeding, ef
ficiency of Holstein bulls vs.
steers, effects of internal
parasites on rate of gain and
feed efficiency, use of
organic acids for grain
preservation, and com
parison of domestic and
continental breeds.
He is currently engaged in
continuing research to
develop practical methods
for recycling agricultural
wastes through livestock in
addition to his work on many
other research projects.

County 4-H'ers to
Take Part In
State Capital Days
Boys and girls from the
Commonwealth’s 67 coun
ties, including five from
York County, will have an
opportunity to broaden their
knowledge of the functions of
state government when they
participate in State 4-H
Capital Days in Harrisburg,
April 1-2.
The county delegates
selected to take part in the
statewide event are: Barry
Eyler, RD2, Dover; Mike
Sueck, RDI, Airville; Kim
McElwwe, RDI, Wellsville;
Sharon Nace, RDI, Spring
Grove; and Cheryl Ebaugh,
RD2, Delta.
While in Harrisburg, they
will meet with government
officials including Governor
Milton J. Shapp and
Lieutenant Governor Ernest
P. Kline; observe the Senate
and House of Represen
tatives while in session; and
tour the State Capitol and
William Penn Memorial
Museum.
Members of the House and
Senate have invited the
young adults to “sit in” while
in session April 1. This will
provide the 4-H members an
opportunity to learn the roles
of legislators.
Local lawmakers will be
guests of the county
delegation at a special
breakfast on April 2. At this
function, 4-H members and
legislators will discuss local
issues and define the pur
poses of the 4-H program.
Two other highlights of the
program will be a social get
together where boys and
girls will be paired as dates
by using date fed into a
computer, and a simulated
“Game of Democracy”
where 4-H members play the
role of legislators.
Explaining the purpose of
The farmer has always
responded to the wants of the
American consumer,
especially in the quality of
meat she likes, hi 1972, about
65 per cent of all beef
produced in the U.S. was
either choice or prime. This
was nearly four times more
prime and choice than was
produced in 1952.
