A2O-Lancaster Fanning, Saturday, September 7,1985 Delaware Holstein claims honors at Maryland State Fair BY JOYCE BUPP Staff Correspondent TIMONIUM, Md. - An out standing Delaware-bred, three year-old Holstein has notched yet another win in her record of vic tories that continues to swell as the summer tanbark season progresses. Cain-View Valiant Rose topped the impressive three-year-old cow class Monday at the Maryland State Fair’s Holstein competition, and then won Canadian judge Lowell Lindsay’s favor for the senior and grand champion ban ner. Earlier this year, the SWD Valiant daughter earned top honors in the Maryland State Futurity, and was named cham pion at both the spring Delaware State Holstein Show and the Delaware State Fair in July. Bred and owned by the Delbert Cain family, Cain-View Farm, Harrington, Del. “Val” isn’t just a pretty cow taking the show trail by storm. In her first lactation, she pumped out an impressive 365-day record of 24,624 milk, with a 4.4 percent butterfat test and 1072 fat. She scored VG-89 as a two-year old, then bounded to EX-92 in her second classification. Following behind the champion through the three-year-old class, and then on to the reserve senior and grand honors, was JFM Pete Gwennette, exhibited by Marion Andrew, Kents Reserve Farm, Centerville. Sired by Straight Pine Elevation Pete, she milked a first lactation of 17,500 with 591 fat. Judge Lindsay credited the pair as “closest to what we’re looking for” from the some 300 head polished and paraded through the fair’s spacious Cow Palace. He especially praised the dairy character and strong pasterns of the champion, and commended the strength and scale of the pair. Another big winner was 13-year old Matt lager, whose first-place, four-year-old earned the Fulton 4- with his 4-H project, a four-year-old Triple Threat daughter. Maryland Holstein president Jimmy Hill presented a trophy from the association. P‘ s at the Maryland State Fair Holstein show were, from left, Maryland Dairy Princess Sheila Bender, Harold King with the reserve champion Charles lager presenting the trophy, Wayne Pierson and judge Lowell Lindsay. H’er the coveted trophy for best bred and owned entry. His Md- Maple-Lawn TT Etta is by Hanover Hill Triple Threat-Red, and milked over 20,000 in her second lactation. Matt’s trophy joined a host of awards accumulating at the family’s Md-Maple Lawn Farm in the wake of the 4-H project cow’s winning ways. At the state 4-H show, held earlier during the fair’s 10-day run, Etta was selected Supreme Champion over all breeds. She captured a similar honor at the Howard County Fair, and took the reserve spot in Montgomery County competition. Matt is the son of Charles and Judy lager. Junior champion awards went to the winning senior yearling, Aynestead Columbus Bridge Drama, a growthy and upstanding Leadfield Columbus daughter exhibited by Philip Pierson, Clayton, Del. In the reserve junior champion slot was the junior yearling winner shown by long-time Maryland exhibitors, Kingstead Farms, Damascus. Kingstead Tony Jamie is sired by Marshfield Elevation Tony. The prized premier banners split between two noted Maryland Holstein breeders, the Marlin Hoff family, New Windsor, and Marion Andrew, Centerville. Along with the premier breeder banner, the Hoff family copped wins in two of the most prestigious group classes, senior best three females and breeder's herd of five females. The several hundred spectators at ringside remained attentive through the day-long show, which also featured awards to several breeders and 4-H judging mem bers.
