Colored breeds show at Gratz
GRATZ Earl Keefer,
David Feidt, Steven Witmer,
Jody Matter, and Faith
Lafferty were owners of
grand champion dairy
animals in open competition

ribbon in the Jersey contest.

winner in the cow classes of
the Ayrshire show as his
entries were consistently
given the blue rbbon. In
addition, Keefer won the
produce of dam, dam and
daughter, dairy herd, and
best three females classes.
Most of the ribbons in the
junior half of the show were
also awarded to Keefer,
although the championship
recognition was bestowed on
Steve Shetterly who had the
first-place intermediate calf.
Debra Shetterly, exhibiting
the top junior calf, was cited
for junior champion honors.

stood first in the senior calf,
junior yearling, 2-year old, 4-

champions, as well as the
entry with the most nearly
perfect udder, and the junior
champion..
