I have a confession to
make.
I’ve been unfaithful.
For 13 years, I have ex
clusively devoted my
thoughts and time to
registered Holstein cows.
I’ve help milk them, calve
them, feed them, show them,
and chase them. Dozens of
wobbly-legged calves have
been nurtured to the
weaning stage by my own
two hands. I’ve chopped
their silage, baled their hay,
written checks for their
Your barn will always be a healthier place for
your animals with Rigidpiy rafter construction.
For Free Stall Housing continuous ventilation is
assured by a ventilator roof and air flow always
available through the heel. This flexibility allows
proper ventilation for all seasons with a min

the arch extends also to construction; often the
arch and wood decking system will permit con
struction to continue into peak winter months.
medical bills and nursed
them through scours,
pneumonia, ringworm and
fits of stubbornness.
In other words, I’m hooked
on those big beautiful black
and whites!
So, then, why was I
standing in the middle of a
dairy cattle show ring
recently, with my hand
clenched on the one end of a
leather show halter, while at
the other end paraded a big
Brown Swiss?
Actually, you see, it wasn’t
my fault. I was a mere
victum of circumstances.
When your animals are
stabled right next to the
show arena, and a friend
orders you to “get out there
and show this cow,” what
does one do? I mean, he
couldn’t lead three head by
himself, could he?
Pulling my cap way down
over my face, I ducked
behind die gentle obedient
Swiss and hid. It was
useless. Momentarily, I hear
hoots, hollers and jeers from
fellow Holstein enthusiasts.
But, when the cow was sent
into the reserve grand

suddenly recalled seeing my
husband showing a Guern

appeared that treason was
running rampant in the
family.
Instant replays happen
elsewhere besides on your

minutes later, I got my
marching orders to lead a

Roundup
applauded
CHICAGO - The
development of Roundup
herbicide by Monsanto
Company has been cited as
one of the most significant
new technical product
achievements of 1977.
Monsanto, along with other
IR-100 award winners, was
honored here Sept. 15 by
Industrial Research
magazine during
ceremonies at the Museum
of Science and Industry.
The competition, now in its
15th year, recognizes in
novators and organizations
for outstanding scientific
and engineering technical
developments. The award
for Roundup marks the
seventh time that Monsanto
has been named a winner
and the first tune in the
history of IR-100 awards
competition that a herbicide
development has received
this recognition.
