Lancaster Farming, Saturday, June 5.1976
It was milk promotion time at Park
City, and the contestants for Lan
caster County’s Dairy Princess
contest enticed the public to try
fresh, wholesome white milk last
Saturday afternoon. Six of the seven
contestants were on hand as well as
the 1975 Dairy Princess Donna
Akers. According to N. Alan Bair,
extension agricultural agent, thirty
five gallons of milk were given out to
1075 people. Drawing almost as
much attention as the pretty con
testants were a calf supplied by
Melvin Eby, Gordonville, and Robert
H. Kauffman’s Cindy of
Elizabethtown. The promotion was
sponsored by the Lancaster County
Dairy Princess committee as an in
troduction to .June is Dairy Month.
Milk around the world
PERU
There are some cattle in
Peru but not nearly enough
to furnish more than a
trickle of milk for the
population. Besides, some of
the mountainous country is
too steep and rocky for cows
to move about. Here the
llama befriends the natives
by giving them milk.

MEYERS FORAGE WAGONS
Ernest Sipel, well known cattle dealer of Columbia,
N.J. is shown standing beside a new Meyers Forage
Wagon he recently purchased from Seiple’s. This is the
second Meyers Forage Wagon he has purchased from
Seiple’s in the past several years. The first Meyers
was so satisfactory, that he decided that he would like
to have another one.
In Mr. Sipel’s opinion, the Meyers Forage Wagon is
as good as any and better than most.
DEALER INQUIRIES ARE INVITED
Although Switzerland is a
great dairy country, much of
the terrain is not suitable for
dairy cattle. High in the
Alpine sections they must
depend on goat’s milk. In the
lower regions, though, they
still use cow’s milk ... the
finest of them all.
