Ag Progress exhibitor offers ‘new idea’ in free samples
ROCK SPRINGS According to
Ag Progress rules and regulations,
commercial exhibitors cannot sell
their wares to the visiting public.
Sales representatives can
demonstrate, answer questions
and advise, but an over-the
counter sale means
disqualification, said APD director
J.D. Harrington.
However there’s nothing wrong
in giving items away. Throughout
the three-day event, visitors toted
their freebies around in plastic
bags, stuffing pamphlets, key
chains and other assorted items in
them.
Susan Yilek and her stepfather
Roger Crippen, were among those
who returned home with a free
sample one that would be
slightly unwiedly in a plastic bag.
The Potter County pair received
one-year free use of a round baler
of their choice, compliments of
AVCO-New Idea. Yilek and
Crippen attended a bailing
demonstration near their home in
Ulysses earlier this summer, and
as a result became eligible for free
use of one of two new models of
round balers. The demonstration

was sponsored by Canyon Im
plements, Mansfield.
The competition was held
throughout North America and
Yileck was one of four people
chosen from the United States and
Canada.
AVCO-New Idea territory
manager David Dunn explained
the drawing was the result of
promoting Avco New Idea’s new
round balers - the 484, which
produces a bale weighing up to 900
pounds with a diameter and width
of 4 feet by 5 feet, and the model
488, which produces a bale 6 feet by
5 feet, weighing up to 1,800 pounds.
Yilek chose the later.
Yilek and Crippen were on hand,
Wednesday, to get a look at their
“free sample.” The Potter Co.
dairy farmers currently milk
about 50 cows. Their 150 acres in
hay produced approximately 3,000
square bales and more than 800
round bales last year. Crippen
explained the family- shared the
use of a neighbor’s round baler and
are looking forward to the model
486, which should arrive at the
Crippen farm in two weeks.
Placements in the 19 key poultry
producing states were 82,154,000,
one percent above the previous
week and six percent above the
same week a year earlier. Average
placements m the key states
during the past nine weeks were
three percent above a year ago.

Pennsylvania under federal in
spection during the week ending
