York Countians win junior Guernsey show
HARRISBURG - Two
brothers from the York area
made it a family affair in the
youth division of the Farm
Show’s Guernsey Show by
winning the grand champion
and reserve grand champion
titles.
The prize-winning boys
are Barry and Brian Leh
man, sons of Mr. and Mrs.
Ellsworth Lehman, York
Rll.
A third York County youth
who came close to winning it
all in the 4-H show was Tuny
Rutter, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Leo Rutter, York. However,
a technicality of the rules
kept Rutter’s animal out of
the youth show, despite the
fact that he is a 4-H member.
The young man ended up
with the reserve champion
banner in the open show.
The Lehman boys and
Ratter combined with Cindy
Rutter (Timy’s sister) and
Darryl Rohrbaugh of New
Freedom to win the county
title. Rutter had the first
place senior yearling, in both
4-H and the open show,
which stood as the junior
champion of the open show.
Rohrbaugh was at the halter
of the top 2-year old in 4-H,
Cindy had the second-place
2-year old, Brian had the
first-place 4-year old, and
Ice-damaged trees need care
MEDIA - Ice storms can
do considerable tree
damage. Should one hit this
winter knowing what to do
and how to do it will mean
the difference between
saving favorite trees or
chopping them up for
firewood. Greatest storm
injury is likely to occur on
the faster growing trees.
These include poplars,
maples, willows, black
locust, and Chinese and
Siberian elms. Stronger
species are oak, sycamore,
andhoneylocust.

of straightening a toppled
tree or mending the wounds

of broken or split branches
experts suggest the
following first-aid treat
ment. One should remove all
broken branches. All cutting
should be done with sharp
tools. Saws, knives, and
wood chisels may be needed.
A person can make cuts
either at a good side branch
or nearly flush with the
mother branch. This avoids
leaving “dead end” stubs.
One should make smooth,
fast-draining wound sur

from all parts of any wound

knife. All bark not solidly

Brian’s 4-year old stood
second in the open show,
being beaten by an entry
exhibited by Pat McMuiray
of Bentleyviile. In 4-H
competition, Brian’s cow
attached to the wood should
be trimmed. Using a sharp
knife, one can expose
uninjured bark on all edges
of the wound. After the wood
has thawed, one should lift,
straighten, and support
trees, shrubs, or evergreen
trees with wire encased in a
