Lisa Chapman also received the
Fetterhof Trophy. The Scrapbook
award went to Christopher
Zagrodnichek in the 8 to 14 year old
division, and the First Year
Project award went to Pamela
McConnell. The calf donated each
year by Frederick Farm, Bedford,
to a deserving Jersey junior, was
won by Kimberly Miller.
In presenting the numerous
juniors with their awards after a
busy year of activities, Youth
Director, Lori Sollenberger,
Everett, praised them for a win
ning year. “We had the largest
state junior show ever in Sep
tember,” Sollenberger recalled.
She also added that there were
several juniors winning national
scholarships this year.
The 1985 All-American Jersey
Show in Louisville, Kentucky,
placed the Pennsylvania Junior
herd as the sixth state herd in the
nation. The highest placing
received to date at that show.
Sollenberger noted the efforts of
the junior club leaders and con
cluded to the breeders to
remember the state Jersey Queen.
“Let her represent the breed for
you,” Sollenberger stated.
Special factory/dealer price
incentives can save you up to $l,OOO on
this reliable, proven bam cleaner.
These days, you don’t want frills, gimmicks
and pretty paint jobs. Not in a bam cleaner.
You want proven reliability, low power
requirements, a rock bottom purchase price,
and fewer problems. That’s what you get when
you buy Starline. A bam cleaner that just
keeps doing its job, day after day, and year
after year. So see your Starline dealer soon,
and ask him to show you how his Starline Barn
Cleaner does a better job of moving manure
and keeping your barn clean for less.

base of the breed’s best bulls.
More than just another A.I.
organization, Wolfe stated that the
group “has a little different
motivation for success. We want to
improve the breed instead of just
make money.”
With Wolfe’s encouragement and
guidance on how to start such an
organization with the minimum of
investment by breeders, over 20
breeders expressed an interest in
forming a Pennsylvania group. A
committee was formed and
scheduled to meet later in the year.
As Wolfe concluded her
presentation at the annual
meeting, she expressed ap
preciation for the interest in her
young sire sampling data. She
ended with a challenge for
breeders, “Your challenges today
will be your opportunities for
success. Be aware of what is
around you and capitalize it to your
best advantage.”*
As the annual meeting
progressed, several resolutions
coming through committee and
from the floor expressed the
feelings of Jersey breeders, and
were unanimously adopted by the
membership.

Carolyn Sanderson, Conneaut
Lake. Over three years ago this
herd was predominantly Holstein.
Through purchases at the Penn
sylvania Bred Heifer sale each
year, Sanderson turned his black
and white herd into one of the
largest all Jersey herds in the
state.
From the Sanderson spread,
visitors viewed the state’s highest
producing Jersey herd. Dave and
Donna Reusing, Meadville, own
and operate New Hope Farm and
their 20 cow herd of Jerseys. Their
production for 1985 stands at 15,173
M and 658 F with three times a day
milking. Cows are kept in the bam
22 hours per day and fed com
silage, hay and grain according to
production. All grain and most of
the silage is purchased and
Reusing makes his own hay. A
Westfalia Visaton milking system
is used.
The top producing herd at
Spruce Row Jerseys was also seen.
Managed by Jeff and Janet Peters,
the herd has been established since
the early 1900’s and Peters has
managed it since 1981. Since that
time, with a RHA of 9,000 milk, the
herd has increased production
over 15,000 on two times a day
milking. The March RHA stood at
2x56 cows, 15.573 M 714 F and 568 P.
