To Hold Sales
The Pennsylvania Holstein
Association has announced
plans for one of the country’s
major Holstein events of
1975, Involved are two
consignment sales and the
State Holstein Show on April
17,18, and 19. All events are
scheduled for the Farm
Show Building in
Harrisburg.
The schedule is as follows:
Thursday, April 17 - Pa.
State Calf Sale; Friday,
April 18 - Pa, State Cow &
Bred Heifer Sale; Saturday,
April 19 - Pa. State Holstein
Show.
The Calf Sale is an annual
event with 200 head of
Registered Holstein calves
under one year old to be sold
at auction. A new sales
series starts in 1975 with the
Cow & Bred Heifer Sale. It is
anticipated that nearly 200
head will be consigned by
breeders of Registered
Holsteins in Pennsylvania.
In addition to the females,
plans also call for the sale of
10-12 Holstein bulls on
Friday.
Both sales are managed by
the Pennsylvania Holstein
Association. Hired as auc-

tioneers are the R. Austin
Backus, Inc. sales
organization, Mexico, N.Y.
and A. Doty Remsburg,
Jefferson, Maryland.
Also an annual event is the
State Holstein Show. Past
experience indicates that
325-350 head will be paraded
before the judge, Richard
Brooks, well-known breeder
of Paclamar Farms in
Colorado. Always one of the
largest and highest quality
State Shows, the 1975 Pa.
State Show should be one of
the best ever.
Anticipation is growing
among breeders across
Pennsylvania as these
events get closer. Also, it is
known that people from all
over the U.S. look forward
each year to this big Holstein
event. Indicative of this is
the fact that in past years
nearly 75 percent of the
consignments to the Calf
Sale were purchased by out
of-state buyers.
With over 700 of top
Registered Holsteins, an
easily accessable location m
Harrisburg, and the
organization of five Holstein
staff members and 5100
members, everything points
toward a successful event. It
should be enjoyable and
profitable for all consignors,
buyers, exhibitors, and
spectators.
Further details may be
obtained from the Penn
sylvania Holstein
Association, 839 Benner
Pike, State College, Pa.

right place, reminds the

maintained and easily
