Heifers stolen
$
SEVEN VALLEYS Six heifers are reported stolen
from Bupplynn Farms, near here, owned by Leroy and
Joyce Bupp.
The missing animals are all registered Holstems,
ranging in weight from 600 to 1000 pounds. None were
bred. Each animal has a hole in the bottom of her left ear
for plastic tags and each was identified with metal tags in
the top right ear.
“Of special concern to us is our daughter’s 4-H animal,”
says Mrs Bupp, describing the heifer as being all black
with a white star on the top of her forehead and having a
white switch and white feet An unusual identifying mark
would be a white line across her nose that resulted from a
show halter burn
According to Mrs. Bupp, strange tire marks have been
discovered in the area from which the heifers were

“The only thing that can be done, is that the farmer just
accepts it,” Dobrosky added sympathetically.
He discussed cases that he had heard of in recent
months
“Just the other day, a farmer had all the tires slashed
on a piece of equipment left out in the field overnight,” he
said.
“Ithappens, and it happens a lot,” he added. “If Icalled

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 22,1978
a dozen fanners, chances are that about ten of them would
be able to report a crime like tires slashed, broken win
dows, parts stolen out of a tractor, that sort of thing.”
- Dobrosky related that most farm crime is vandalism.
Few things are actually stolen outright, and there are
fairly few cases of stolen livestock, based on his ex
periences.
Even though stolen cattle is rare, Dobrosky can
remember a recent case when a farmer had cattle in the
field overnight and in the morning he found one shot and
quartered, the meat stolen.
“It doesn’t happen too often, but it does,” he said. “Why
I even recall hearing that someone stole a 4-H steer from
some kid.”
The crimes on the farms might include an occasional
stolen cow, and a dead steer, but more often than not, it’s
the valuable property and equipment on the farm that is
hit by the rural crime
Lancaster County State Police Barracks report that
farm crime is still fairly low for the most part, but in
cidences of broken windows and ruined mailboxes are
very frequent.
These crimes are generally non-professional, the kinds
of things that youngsters are likely to do. Every once in a
while, though, a particular part of a piece of equipment is
stolen, removed carefully and with precision.
In most cases crimes like these are never solved. The
