Crews, Assistant Secretary of National All-Jersey, Inc., con ceded that “all farms are part nerships", as he admitted that it is often the wife that holds things together. There were eight women honored as- “exceptional dairy wives’. They included; Jane King, Florence Kracht, Oneva Eowzee, Geneva Riggs, Peggy Lewis, Linda Billman, Arlene Chamberlain, and Pennsylvanian, Berks County, Pennsylvanian, Helene Dreisbach.

Their “Wilderness” Jerseys number approximately 75 milkers and there are several “Wilder ness” bulls in major A.l. organizations. Helene manages the entire Jersey herd since her husband is usually busy in the fields oi in his small animal veterinary practice. As Crews jokingly stated at the breakfast, “Doc gets the imaginary call" when trouble arises and Helene takes over. As an added treat, Pat Leun bach, Vermillion, Ohio, a noted author and lecturer with extensive farm wife training yet humorous outlook, was the featured speaker for the morning. “1 think all our problems arise from the fact that we don’t have any manual of procedure”, she told all the dairy wives present. “We have a lifetime of on the job training.” With continuous witty dialogue, Leimbach went from one farm wife .dilemma to another and stated, “knowing dairy women, 1 knew they were disciplined to sit through and endure, no matter what.” Concerning women's liberation, she also added, “after 31 years of going over those ruts and bumps, disking, I’m not about to bum my bra.” The 25th annual business meeting of the National All-Jersey Inc., was called to order by President G. • Joe Lyon who reported on the organized efforts of NAJ towards influencing the market for equity. The National All-Jersey, Inc., program was formed to promote the mcreased production and sale of Jersey milk and milk products and to promote Jersey cattle and the interests of breeders of Jersey cattle throughout the world.
