After Blodgett stepped
down, Bob Morris, director
of Special Programs for the
Holstein Association spoke
on exporting animals on the
international market. His
goal was to explain to the
breeders the existing con
ditions in the exporting
business, and to make clear
why certain problems exist.
One common complaint
Morris triedto handle was
that of price. The price of the
animals is affected by
transportation costs, health
tests, and quarantines, he
explained. Morris also told of
how the animals are
processed to get them ready
to go overseas, adding that if.
an animal has ringworm or
warts, “the federal govern
ment won’t let them out of
the country.”
Then, Mike Nolan, Eastern
Pa. program director for the
Pa. Holstein Association,
recapped the National
Convention, spoke on grade
identification, and the
procedure of how to become
a delegate to the convention.
After the brief speeches
concluded, it was time to
hand out the prizes for the
dairy judging.
In the children’s division,
Susan Kulp took first place
with a total of S 8 points. In
the ifamen’s division Carol
Facey also had 98 points for
a top prize, and in the men’s
division, Jim Shaw and
Melvin Stoltzfus tied for first
with another 98-point record.
The other winners in the
various categories were:
Children’s division - 2. Victor

division - 2. Carol Yeager

remaining - that of giving

The Extension program
developed by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture
and our land-grant
universities has been the
vital link between laboratory
and farm.
Two centuries ago, in 1776,
when more than 90 percent of
the population lived on
farms, one farmworker
produced food for himself
and just about two other
people.
