YORK - Clifford Stiles and
his family captured most of
the honors at the York Fair’s
Open Jersey Show on
Wednesday night. The
Maryland family won junior,
senior, and grand cham
pionship titles, as well as
numerous first places in
various classes.
Stiles, of Westminster,
Md., is a well-known con
tender for top Jersey honors
at the York Inter-State Fair
and other such events in the
area. One of his animals was
judged best Maryland breed
cow at the Timonium State
Fair earlier this month and
he was grand champion here
at York a year ago. Among
his other honors, Stiles also
had the best three females
owned and bred by the
exhibitor for both junior and
senior classes, best aged
cow, and junior get of sire.
The Stile’s family has a total
of 70 Jerseys at their farm,
$10.09 given
for August milk
New York, N.Y. - Dairy
farmers supplying milk
plants regulated under the
New York-New Jersey
marketing orders during
August will be paid on the
basis of a uniform price of
$10.09 per hundred pounds or
21.7 cents per quart. Market
Administrator Thomas A.
Wilson, who announced
August’s price, also stated
that the uniform farm price
was $9.63 per hundredweight
in July 1977 and $10.22 per
hundredweight in August
1976. The uniform price is a
marketwide weighted
average of the value of farm
milk used for fluid and
manufactured dairy
products.
The seasonal incentive
fund (Louisville Plan)
returned a total of
$2,852,847.20 or $.356 per
hundredweight to the dairy
farmer’s uniform price for
August. This fund was
generated by reducing the
uniform price paid
producers during the high
production spring months.
The total amount of milk
received from the 18,697
dairy farmers supplying the
New York-New Jersey
Marketing Area was
800,994,514 pounds during
August 1977. This was more
than 43.7 million pounds
above last year. The gross
value to dairy farmers for
milk deliveries was
$80,938,654.41. Mr. Wilson
explained that this included
differentials required to be
paid to dairy farmers but not
voluntary premiums or
deductions authorized by the
farmer.
Regulated milk dealers
(handlers) utilized
365,319,328 pounds or 45.6 per
cent of the total amount of
milk for Class 1. The Class 1
milk is used for fluid
products such as
homogenized, flavored, low
test and skim milks. For
August 1977, handlers paid
$ll.OO per hundredweight, or
23.6 cents per quart, for the
milk used in Class 1 products
compared with $10.72 a year
ago.
The balance of the milk,
54.4 per cent, was used to
manufacture Class II
which is located near the
Mason-Dixon line, below
Littlestown.
The only championship
ribbon which eluded Stiles
was the one for reserve
junior champion, which was
won by Mildred Seeds of
Chester County.
Contending for the ribbons
along with Seeds and Stiles
were Mike and Joey Welsh of
East Berlin, both of whom
captured first places with
their calves. Bruce Heller
had a junior yearling which
stood first, followed by
George Stiles of Boonesboro,
Md. and Wendy McCleary of
Stewartstown. Heller also
had the first-place dry 4-year
old, beating an entry from
Kevin Stiles. Kevin was first
with his milking 3-year old,
followed by one owned by
Mildred Seeds. The top 4-
year old was exhibited by
George Stiles.
products including butter,
cheese, ice cream and
yogurt. For this milk the
handlers paid $8.74 per
hundredweight.
The uniform price is based
on milk containing 3.5 per
cent butterfat. For August
1977, a differential of 11.6
cents was applied to the
price for each one-tenth of
one per cent that the milk
tested above or below the 3.5
per cent standard.
All prices quoted are for
milk received within the 201-
210 mill zone from New York
City.

meets
MECHANICSBURG - The
Susquehanna River Basin
Commission approved
requests for groundwater
withdrawals for municipal
supply use by the Borough

East Petersburg, Pa. The
decision approving the
projects, proposed to meet

monitoring requirements
and a provision for
establishing and main
taining water conservation
measures. The Commission
is placing emphasis on water
conservation as an im
portant practice and a
strategy to help meet
present and future water
supply needs, especially
during drought.
In approving the Mt. Joy

Andrus, U.S. Department of
Interior, complimented the
Borough Authority for the
initiative already shown in
its development of a water

so either by water shortage
conditions or agency
regulatory measure.
