Meanwhile, Donald Baker
had become a one-man
crusade for photographs on
cattle registry papers.
“The state’s attorney told
me that one little
discrepancy one
misplaced curve or angle
one little spot missing on a
sketched paper might be
cause to throw out the
registry certificate as legal
evidence, he says.
“Only an identical picture,
a photograph, may be
considered solid proof on
“spotted” cattle, like
Ayrshires, Holsteins, or
Guernseys.
In Maryland, most
registered cattle would not
have an eartag, which can be
removed anyway. We may
have to ultimately rely on
tattoos, like the Brown Swiss
and Jersey breeds. ’ ’

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, November 8,1980—85
made an upswing in other
parts of the state.
Like other farmers in the
area who had been cattle
loss victims, Baker and his
family carry lasting
emotional scars of the in
trusion onto their private
property.
They recall a mght earlier
this past summer, when at
2:30 a.m., the dairy cattle
were heard nulling around
an.l lowing. Earlier that
night, an unfamiliar pickup
had traveled back and forth
on the two roads that bisect
at the edge of Baker’s
meadow pasture.
“I grabbed my shotgun,”
Baker admits. As he stood
checking it outside the house
m the light, the strange
pickup agam, traveling at
great speed toward Penn
sylvania, passed the house
and has not seen back in the
area.
All that was found up at
the dairy bam was a new
calf, with the cows moving
aroupd to observe the calf.
But still, the family and
neighbors wonder if they
disturbed a potential
troublemaker
A wariness has settled
over the quiet neighborhood
and the residents keep an
eye out for each other
Recently a Pennsylvania
neighbor up the road called
the Bakers, when a large
truck was observed creeping
down the narrow road
toward the farm
It was a feed truck making
a late delivery, but Baker
rests easier knowing that
everyone remains alert and
concerned.
And, every chance they
have, the Baker family
continues to campaign for
pictures on cattle registry
certificates. Suppose, they
wonder, if the stolen animals
had carried sketched
registry, and a question of
ownership had arisen, would
Patches and Betsy been
returned?
Representatives of the
three “spotted” dairy cattle
breeds say they’ve never
had any refusal to their
knowledge of sketched
registry certificates being
accepted as positive iden
t'fication.
Dale Severy, assistant to
the manager of the Ayrshire
Breeders Association at
Brandon, Vermont, in
dicated that an Ayrshire can
be identified in several
ways. Tattooing is one ap
proved method, following
requirements set by the
Association Board. Or
breeders can submit a
sketched application, or
photographs, which will be
fastened to the final cer
tificate.
However the Ayrshire
Association is presently
covertmg to computerization
and will then encourage
tattooing. The Canadian
breed organization already
requires mandatory tattoos
A spokesman for the
registry department of the
Holstein Association at
Brattleboro, Vermont, in
dicated that, while tattooing
has been discussed already,
it is not likely to become
mandatory. The Holstein
Association does prefer that
each registry application
come with an eartag num
ber.
Holstein registration can
also be either it sketch or
photograph form, black and
white, and no questioning or
sketched registries has ever
been made in legal
proceedings
Although Guernsey
breeders may submit
photographs in lieu of
sketches, they will be used
only for an office staffer to
draw the registry sketch,
according to Irvin Nichols,
registry director for the
American Guernsey Cattle
Club at Petersburg, New
Hampshire. Tattooing is also
optional, if breeders prefer
to use that method of
identification
