Jersey sale
(Continued from Page A 22)
was Vantage Pride Aster, con
signed by Don and Angie Koontz of
Fredonia, which was purchased
for $1,525 by James Clark of Enon
Valley. In discussing his purchase
Jim said, “I know that is a lot to
pay for a calf, but I have her
maternal sister at home.” This
maternal sister is projected at
14,292 pounds milk as a 2 year old
and was purchased at the Pot of
Gold sale two years ago. “Aster”
will go home to join Jim’s herd of
15 Jerseys.
The six heifers offered in the Pot
of Gold sale averaged $879 while
the forty-one cows offered for sale
averaged $1,335.
Another highlight of the annual
sale was the purchase of a bull,
Smokey Hill Saint Jeff, by a
syndicate of Pennsylvania Jersey
Breeders for $3,600. All proceeds of
this sale go toward the 1985 Annual
American Jersey Cattle Club
meeting and sale to be held in
'Pennsylvania. Roy Watson of
Columbia Cross Roads donated the
outstanding son of Favorite Saint
who is out of an excellent
Quicksilver dam.
