Good, Question
1 read in your paper recently
about a Jersey herd dispersal. 1
was wondering if you would have
any information about Jersey
cows, including the average price
of registered and grade Jerseys
and some average herd dispersal
prices?
Kenneth R. Hackett
- Mr. Hackett: According to
Florence Robinson, secretary of
the' Pennsylvania Jersey Cattle
Club, Jersey cows in the state last
year averaged $1,742.65.
A registered Jersey cow would
cost about $l,OOO-$1,500; while a
grade Jersey sells for around $7OO
- she said.
There have been no local
dispersals lately, but a recent sale
held m Ohio had an average of
$1,028 per head.

I would like to have some in
formation about whitewash. 1 am
particularly interested in how it is
made and applied.
A Dauphin County reader
According to a pamphlet from
the National Lime Association,
there are a number of types of
whitewash and ways to annl v it.
DEUTZ DIESELS FROM INDIANA?
" ■
Deutz customers know from experience that Deutz diesels are
a creation of German engineering and production craftsmanship.
All those happy Deutz users will be even happier to learn that
NOW DEUTZ DIESELS WILL BE MADE IN USA - at a Deutz
engine plant in Richmond, Indiana.
Domestic production in the 20-160 hp range gives us and our
Deutz customers a tremendous advantage over all other air-j
cooled diesels.
Invest in a sure thing - Deutz diesels have been famous for fuel
economy and reliability since Amos Stauffer first sold Deutz
diesels in this area - 25 years ago. We are equally famous for
superb Deutz service
Compare prices. Don’t just buy a “bargain” diesel which is
supposed to be “built like a Deutz". BUY A DEUTZ AND BE
SURE YOU HAVE MADE A GOOD INVESTMENT. A Deutz diesel
will usually recover the difference in price thru fuel savings alone
within one year, plus Deutz diesels give extra service life.

A simple recipe includes: %
bushel of flaked lime, 1 peck salt, 3
pounds ground rice, % pounds
Spanish whiting, and 1 pound glue.
To prepare the whitewash, mix
the lime with 12 gallons of boiling
water, keeping this mixture
covered. Strain and add salt that
has been dissolved in 6 gallons of
warm water. Boil the ground nee
in approximately 1 gallon of water
until it is a thin paste. Then mix
Spanish whiting and glue together
with warm water. Finally mix
everything together and let it stand
for several days m a large kettle.
Before applying reheat mixture by
warming on stove or open fire.
To apply the wash use a brush
and keep the material as hot as
possible.
Whitewash can be applied to any
dry surface. It is recommended for
use in barns to help bnghten them
and, in the process, eliminate
spiders. It also helps to protect the
wood, bnck, or stone to which it is
applied.
If more information is needed,
your local Extension service has a
number of recipes and pamphlets
on whitewash and its uses.
