Sheila Miller-joins staff
(Continued from Page 1)
of the 1973 Meats Judging
team. She was also an active
member of the Block and
Bridle Club, and served as
corresponding secretary.
During the 1973 and 1974
Little International
Livestock Expo, she showed
an Anglo-Arab colt and an
Angus heifer.
Sheila’s interest in
showing cattle landed her a
part-time job after
graduation with a Get
tysburg farmer, David
Simpson. She showed a
string of registered
Charolais cattle at the 1975
Penna. Farm Show for Great
Oaks Farm.
At the present time, Sheila
and Mike are in the cattle

four registered. Polled
Hereford cattle, and plan to
show their heifer and-bull
calves at this year’s Farm
Show.
Along with their cattle, the
Miller’s: have two horses
which they ride for pleasure.
They are interested in
eventually having a driving
horse in order to make use of \
their antique sleighs and
buggies. - “We became in
terested in carriages and
driving through friends of '
"ours in Berks County,”
commented Sheila. “Now,
we have a top buggy, two
sleighs, a two-wheel cart on
-iron, and loads of driving
accessories. If the gas
crunch gets too bad, we want
to be prepared!”
Sheila also raises Irish
Setters as a hobby. “I was
given my first Irish Setter
VERSATILITY
makes Kubota mid-range
diesel tractors ideal for...
while I was still a student at
Penn State,” she said. This
past August, Sheila’s second
Irish Setter gave birth to
nine puppies. “It was my
first litter of puppies,”
laughed Sheila. “Oh the
farm we always had tons of
kittens and calves, but never
puppies. It was a real ex
perience.”
