It efm'nates the labor problem of separating the herd in a loose housing system to give individual attention to top producing animals. The Setv-O-Matic is activated by a simple magnet fastened around the cow’s neck. This way, only the cows you select can activate the feeder and receive additional ration... yet afl animals can still be housed together. Each cow producing 10 lb. or more over the herd average should receive extra feed. In actual trials, cows on the Serv-O-Matic consume an extra 10 lbs. of grain per day [while eating some less in the parlor]. Milk output shows an average increase of 1 lb. of milk for each pound of concentrate fed through the Serv-O- Mafic... some as high as 5 lbs. of milk per pound of feed! One Setv-O-Matic will normally handle 20-30 cows in an 80-120 cow herd. Normal procedure is to put fresh cows on extra ration and remove the magnet when production drops to a predetermined level.

Glenn Ellenberger, president of the honorary and Lehigh County agent, presented Smith with a pin, recognizing his out standing contributions to extension work since 1937. “The award is presented to those who have exhibited, extension achievements and have worked to make the service more professional,” Ellenberger explained. “Max Smith has shown these qualities and we are happy to honor him.” Doris Thomas, extension home economist, was presented with a statuette of the Nittany Lion for having contributed much to the field of nutritional education. The honor was bestowed on Doris by Cheryl Reitz, representing the Capital Region Home Economists. Mrs. Thomas had been honored by the national association of home economists earlier in the year at their convention, winning a distinguished service award. Irwin Honored Thomas Piper, county agent in Adams County, presented Jay Irwin with the 1975 State Achievement Award for outstanding ex tension service in less than ten years. “Jay has already made important con tributions to the people in Lancaster and in Penn sylvania,” Piper noted, “it is with pride that we present him with a statue of the Nittany lion.” Paste Recreates Pugh Featured speaker for the evening’s program was Dr. Jerome Paste, Associate Dean for Resident Education for the College of Agriculture, Penn State.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, Feb. 14,1976 from Page 16) cipal of the Farmer’s High School (forerunner of Penn State) delivered before the Cumberland Co. Agricultural Society in 1860. Pasto selected several paragraphs and sentences from Pugh original two-hour speech and highlighted the educator’s talk. Pugh had fought for more agricultural education and stated, “we need fanners who really understand the importance of science in fanning.” Setting up agriculture investigation stations was also a prominent plea in Pugh’s speech as was his fight for legislative funds for training fanners. Pugh rebuked President Buchanan, a Lancaster County resident, who bad vetoed funds for creating land grant universities. Dr. James Van Home, family life specialist for Penn State, joined with Pasto in relating the history Of Pugh and his fight for agricultural training. Van Home explained that Pugh was an accomplished student who studied in Germany and became a prominent chemist. Pugh died at the age of 36 and is buried in Bellefonte near State College. Pugh’s greatest accomplishments were his establishment of Penn State and his fellowship in the London Chemical Society. Also included in the program was soloist Marlene Hough, of Quarryville. One thing you can say for greed: it’s responsible for some mighty imaginative rationalizations.

The contestant was Marilyn Landis, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Warren Landis, Jr., Souderton, who placed second in the district with her two piece wool ensemble. Marilyn is a 17 year old senior at Souderton High School and has been invloved with 4-H projects for a total of 8 years. There were certain requirements in making the outfit. The material had to be at least 80 percent wool and no less than 70 percent. She had to make the complete outfit herself. Contestant had to model the garment and the outfit had to be made strictly for that contest. It could not have been entered in another contest or project prior to the “Make It With Wool” competition. Marilyn also took another top honor at last month’s Pennsylvania Farm Show, winning the first-place sweepstakes award in the tailoring division. Liquid SuPP»« m * nt 17
